The 18V LXT 5.0Ah battery (BL1850) is designed to work with star protection tools, which can be identified by the Star Symbol and/or Yellow Battery Receiver under the tool. Makita Lithium-Ion batteries have low self-discharge rates, ensuring they are always 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 charging to monitor current, voltage, and temperature. This technology helps optimize battery life and charging speed, with a built-in fan to keep the battery cool for efficient charging, even in hot conditions. STAR Protection Computer Controls are also included to improve tool performance and extend battery life by protecting against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating in real-time.

As a leader in cordless tool innovation, Makita offers a wide range of 18V lithium-ion powered tools. The integrated L.E.D. battery charge level indicator allows users to easily keep track of the battery's charge status, providing up to 65% more run time per charge compared to the BL1830 battery.
