18v Makita Batteries


You need batteries?  18v Makita batteries?  Ok.  Follow some simple steps in order to buy the right batteries then you can get moving on all those household  projects.

First thing to know is your brand of power tool.  In this case we know that brand is Makita pod style battery which looks like this:

The next thing is the voltage of your tool battery.  This too is easy since you already know the battery is an 18v. Battery voltage can be defined as the rate at which energy produces the flow of electricity.

Capacity is important also.  The 18 volt Makita batteries have different capacities.  This particular aftermarket battery has 54% more capacity or runtime (how long battery holds a charge between charges).  The OEM Makita 18v battery comes with a capacity of 1300 mAh (1.3 Ah), whereas this battery has a 2000 mAh (2.00 Ah) capacity.  What this means for you is you can get all those jobs around the house done faster since you won't have to stop and recharge batteries very often.

By the way, don't let the idea of buying an aftermarket battery sway you.  The major benefit to an aftermarket purchase, for this 18v battery, is not only is it reliable, but you get more runtime for your money.  It is OEM compatible and can be used with the Makita 18v Cordless tool also.
