Starter Pack includes a 12V max CXT® Lithium-Ion 2.0Ah Battery, which combines efficient performance with the superior balance and ergonomics of a slide-style battery and the convenience of an on-board L.E.D. battery charge level indicator. The 12V max CXT® 2.0Ah battery (and 4.0Ah battery, sold separately) are at the heart of the expanding Makita 12V max CXT® tool series, combining performance with superior ergonomics in a compact size. The Starter Pack includes an efficient 12V max CXT® Lithium-Ion Charger (DC10WD).
The Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion battery charges faster and works longer than standard lithium-ion batteries, giving you and your cordless tools unmatched performance and productivity to take on the most demanding applications. The Makita 5.0Ah battery has a category-leading charge time of only 45 minutes, so it spends more time working and less time sitting on the charger.
Build your own Makita tool kit with the 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Battery and Dual Port Charger Starter Pack (5.0Ah). Makita offers over 150 cordless tools and most are available as "bare tools" (tool only, no batteries or charger included). Pick up the Starter Pack, then purchase the 18V "bare tools" you need to get the job done – including 18V X2 LXT® tools powered by two 18V batteries. It's an ideal way to start building a Makita cordless tool line-up.
Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries resist self-discharge so they’re ready for use even after long periods of storage. The Makita Rapid Optimum Charger 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.
The Rapid Optimum Charger offers key advantages for Makita 12V max CXT® users. The exclusive built-in fan cools the battery by forcing air through the battery's air vents during the charging process for faster charging. The charger communicates with the battery's built-in chip throughout the charging process to optimize battery life by actively controlling current, voltage and temperature. The result is efficient charge times so the battery spends more time working and less time sitting on the charger.
The 18V Dual Port Rapid Optimum Charger offers key advantages for Makita 18V Lithium-Ion cordless tool users. The exclusive built-in fan cools the battery by forcing air through the battery's air vents during the charging process for faster charging. The charger communicates with the battery's built-in chip throughout the charging process to optimize battery life by actively controlling current, voltage and temperature. The result is category-leading charge times: two 18V Compact Lithium-Ion 2.0Ah batteries in only 25 minutes; two 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion 3.0Ah batteries in only 30 minutes; two 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion 4.0Ah batteries in only 40 minutes; two 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion 5.0Ah batteries in only 45 minutes
The charger communicates with the individual cell in battery with a built in CPU and then it controls current, voltage, and temperature for both rapid and optimum charge
