For added convenience, it also features an on-board LED charge level indicator to monitor battery charge. The 18-Volt LXT 4.0Ah battery is compatible only with Star Protection tools, indicated by the Star Symbol and/or Yellow Battery Receiver under the tool. Makita 18-Volt Lithium-Ion batteries resist self-discharge so they’re ready for use even after long periods of storage. The Makita Rapid Optimum Charger (sold separately) is a smart-charging system that communicates with the battery during the charging process to monitor current, voltage and temperature. This advanced charging technology helps optimize battery life and deliver a faster charge. In addition, the Charger has a built-in fan to cool the battery for faster and more efficient charging, even in hot weather conditions. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created STAR Protection Computer Controls. Integrated LED battery charge level indicator allows user to monitor battery charge Provides up to 35% more run time per charge compared to BL1830 Reaches full charge in 40 minutes or less Compatible only with star protection tools, indicated by the star symbol and/or yellow battery receiver under the tool Battery delivers consistent power and run time in extreme temperatures, even in winter (-4°F/-20°C) Equipped with star protection computer controls to protect against overloading, over-discharging and over-heating Impact-resistant outer case and shock-absorbing inner-liner are engineered to protect the battery 16 contact terminals maintain a constant connection with the tool to help prevent power loss or fluctuation, even during high-vibration applications Battery resists self-discharge and remains ready for use even after long periods of storage Makita 18-Volt lithium-ion is the world’s largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18-Volt lithium-ion slide-style battery Makita technology delivers category-leading charge time so the battery spends more time working and less time sitting on the charger (charger not included) 3-year limited warranty Shop all Makita products Click here for more information on Electronic Recycling Programs California residents see Prop 65 WARNINGS
