Makita BL4040F 40V Max XGT 4.0Ah Lithium-Ion Battery
The Makita BL4040F 40V Max XGT 4.0Ah Lithium-Ion Battery is a high-output power tool battery designed for professional users who need reliable performance from cordless equipment. Part of the Makita XGT 40V Max system, it uses advanced tabless lithium-ion cell technology to deliver higher output power, longer runtimes and improved thermal management for demanding cutting, drilling and outdoor applications. Compared with the standard BL4040, the BL4040F provides up to 35% more power while running up to 32% cooler, helping to maintain performance under continuous heavy load. It reaches full charge in around 45 minutes with compatible XGT rapid chargers, and features an impact-resistant outer case, shock-absorbing inner liner and enhanced cooling system for durability on tough job sites. A digital communication system between battery, tool and charger protects against overload, over-discharge and overheating, while the integrated 4 LED fuel gauge makes it easy to monitor remaining charge. The BL4040F is fully compatible with Makita 40V Max XGT tools and is supplied as a single battery pack where stated.
