BL1850B2DC2 Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Battery And Dual Port Charger Starter Pack (5.0Ah) Description

The BL1850B2DC2 Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Battery and Dual Port Charger Starter Pack (5.0Ah) is the perfect way to begin your custom Makita cordless tool kit. With over 150 cordless tools offered by Makita, most available as 'bare tools' (without batteries or charger), you can pick up this Starter Pack and then select the 18V "bare tools" necessary for your specific tasks. This is the optimal strategy for initiating a Makita cordless tool collection.

The included Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries resist self-discharge, remaining ready for use even after prolonged storage periods. The Rapid Optimum Charger, a smart-charging system, communicates with the battery during charging to monitor current, voltage, and temperature. This advanced charging process optimizes battery life and delivers a faster charge. The 18V Dual Port Rapid Optimum Charger charges two batteries simultaneously, maximizing charging efficiency and minimizing downtime.

Makita's Star Protection Computer Controls™, aimed at improved tool performance and extended battery life, allow the tool and battery to exchange data in real time. This protects against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating. As the innovation leader in cordless tool technology, Makita has the worlds largest cordless tool line-up powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries.

The BL1850B2DC2 Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Battery And Dual Port Charger Starter Pack (5.0Ah) reaches full charge in 45 minutes or less and delivers up to 65% more run time per charge compared to BL1830. Its integrated L.E.D. indicator lets users monitor battery charge, while the battery itself ensures consistent power and run time even in extreme temperatures (-4°F/-20°C). Equipped with Star Protection Computer Controls, it protects against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating.

The impact-resistant outer case and shock-absorbing inner liner are designed to protect the battery, with sixteen contact terminals maintaining constant tool connection to prevent power loss or fluctuation, even during high-vibration applications. This battery is compatible only with Star Protection tools, marked by the Star Symbol and/or Yellow Battery Receiver.

The Makita Rapid Optimum Charger optimizes battery life by actively controlling current, voltage, and temperature. With its built-in fan, it cools the battery during the charging process, leading to a faster charge time. This charger can simultaneously charge two 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion 5.0Ah batteries in only 45 minutes. All products in this Starter Pack come with a 3-year limited warranty for your peace of mind.
