The Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Battery, model BL1860B, offers faster charging and longer working time compared to standard lithium-ion batteries, providing exceptional performance and productivity for even the most demanding tasks. With a 6.0Ah capacity, this battery boasts a leading charge time of just 55 minutes.

Featuring an on-board L.E.D. charge level indicator for added convenience, Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries are designed to resist self-discharge, remaining ready for use even after extended periods of storage. For efficient charging, the Makita Rapid Optimum Charger (sold separately) utilizes advanced technology to communicate with the battery, monitoring current, voltage, and temperature to optimize battery life and deliver a quick charge.

Equipped with a built-in fan to cool the battery during charging, the Rapid Optimum Charger ensures faster and more effective charging, even in hot weather conditions. The 18V LXT 6.0Ah battery is only compatible with Star Protection tools, identified by the Star Symbol and/or Yellow Battery Receiver.

To enhance tool performance and extend battery life, Makita has developed Star Protection Computer Controls – a cutting-edge communication technology that allows the tool and battery to exchange real-time data, monitoring conditions during use to prevent overloading, over-discharging, and overheating. Makita leads the way in cordless tool innovation, offering the largest cordless tool system powered by an 18V lithium-ion slide-style battery.

Furthermore, the battery features an integrated L.E.D. charge level indicator, delivering up to twice the run time per charge compared to previous models. It achieves a full charge in 55 minutes or less and is designed to deliver consistent power and run time in extreme temperatures, even in winter (-4°F/-20°C).

With a durable impact-resistant outer case and shock-absorbing inner liner, the battery is engineered for protection. Sixteen contact terminals ensure a stable connection with the tool, preventing power loss or fluctuations, even during high-vibration applications. The battery's ability to resist self-discharge means it remains ready for use, even after prolonged storage. Makita's 18V Lithium-Ion line-up is the largest in the world, offering a comprehensive range of cordless tools powered by the 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style battery.
