Makita BL1850B 5.0Ah 18v battery

When uninterrupted run time is critical, such as on remote construction sites or where charging capacity is distant, the Makita BL1850B 5.0Ah 18v Li-ion battery provides a solution. It offers 66% more run time than the 3.0Ah battery, while maintaining the same size and weight. This means that you can enjoy the same excellent balance and comfort of a Makita tool, even when you're using a battery with a longer run time. The BL1850B 5.0Ah battery is a great option for operators who regularly undertake high-load operations or are frequently working on large sites far distant from a charging point. The greater capacity of the battery protects against over-heating and high discharge during heavy demand operations, thus extending the working life of the battery. You can also avoid the need to carry additional batteries or be able to recharge batteries regularly by choosing the 5.0Ah battery option. The BL1850B 5.0Ah battery can be recharged in just 45 minutes when using a Makita DC18RC or DC18RA fast charger. This is significantly faster than the recharge time for the 3.0Ah or 4.0Ah batteries. The battery also features a battery capacity indicator LED that shows you how much power you have left at a glance. The BL1850B 5.0Ah battery is compatible with all Makita 18v Li-ion tools that have a star symbol on the connector plate, or a yellow connector plate with a star on, or have a yellow connector plate only. This means that you can use it with a wide range of Makita power tools, from drills and saws to sanders and impact wrenches.
