14.4 Volt Makita Battery
The 14.4 volt Makita battery is a trusted battery for all your power tool needs. With reliability and durability you can't go wrong with an aftermarket purchase. The original battery that came with your power tool meets industry standards, but so does the aftermarket replacement battery.
The OEM battery (from Makita directly) has the following specifications: Pod style, 14.4v, NICD (Nickel Cadmium), 1.3 AH capacity with compact standard runtime battery. Whereas the aftermarket 14.4 volt Makita battery has these specifications: Pod style, 14.4V, NICD (Nickel Cadmium), 2.0 AH capacity with an extended runtime battery.
The great thing about this Makita replacement is the extended runtime feature that you notice when using your device. This has to do with the capacity of the battery or how long will the battery deliver a charge before it runs out. The original battery capacity is 1300mAh (milliAmp hour), but with this one you get 2000mAh (milliAmp hour). What this really means for you is that you get 54% more battery for your money.
The compatible part numbers for this 14.4 volt Makita battery are: MAK-1420, MAK-1422, 192600-1, 1422, 220064, 220563, 543196, PA14, 194172-2.
You are probably wondering the cost difference between the two batteries? The standard OEM version runs around $80.00, but the extended 14.4 volt Makita battery version in an aftermarket purchase runs $50.95. These replacement batteries can also be used with the Makita 14.4 Cordless Tool. At Batteryship.com there are over 1500 batteries and brands for every power tool need.
