Charge faster, work longer, and power through anything!
The Makita BL1850 18V LXT lithium-ion 5.0Ah battery is designed to keep tools running longer, charge faster, and endure the toughest job site conditions. Delivering up to 65% more runtime per charge than the BL1830, it provides the extended power professionals need to tackle demanding applications without constant recharging. Equipped with Star Protection Computer Controls, this battery actively prevents overloading, over-discharging, and overheating, ensuring consistent performance and longer battery life. Even in extreme temperatures as low as -4°F (-20°C), it delivers unwavering power, allowing users to work in cold, harsh environments without interruption. Moreover, the built-in LED battery charge level indicator offers instant visibility into power levels, helping users plan ahead and reduce downtime.
Built for rugged durability, the BL1850B battery pack features an impact-resistant outer casing and shock-absorbing inner liner, protecting it from drops, harsh handling, and job site wear and tear. Plus, a 16-contact terminal system maintains a steady, uninterrupted connection, preventing power loss during high-vibration tasks like hammer drilling and impact driving. On top of that, rapid 45-minute charge times allow users to spend more time working and less time waiting for a recharge.
