It resists self - discharge, so it's ready for use after long periods of storage. Makita's 18V Lithium - Ion is the world's largest cordless tool lineup powered by an 18V Lithium - Ion slide - style battery. Makita's technology provides a category - leading charge time, meaning the battery spends more time working and less time on the charger (charger not included). It also comes with a 3 - year limited warranty.
Using the Makita BL1850B battery is easy. First, make sure your tool is a Star Protection tool, as this battery only works with those. Then, slide the battery onto the tool until it clicks into place. You can check the battery charge level using the integrated LED indicator. When it's time to charge, use a compatible charger (not included). It will reach a full charge in 45 minutes or less. As for storage, keep it in a cool, dry place. This battery resists self - discharge, so it'll be ready to go even after a long time in storage. Be careful not to overload the tool, as the battery has protection against overloading, over - discharging, and over - heating. If you drop the battery, check it for damage. The impact - resistant outer case and shock - absorbing inner liner are there to protect it, but a visual inspection is always a good idea.
