2 Pack 18V 5000mAh Lithium-ion Replacement Battery for Makita and 14.4V-18V Replacement Charger for Makita BL1830 BL1850 BL1840

The charger is just fine. Charges fast and completely.These new 5000mAh batteries last and last!I usually keep 2 chargers going at work because we put the cordless Makita tools through their paces, all day.These batteries work hard all day before needing a charge!

Better than buying original equipment

I gave a review for this product already, but sense you've asked for another, here we go. I am impressed that this charger came with two batteries at a prices less than you can purchase 2 of the same batteries from large retail centers. Also, this charger is exactly like my original, but in perfectly new condition.And, the speed at what this arrived at my doorstep is impressive as well. Kudo's to the vendor for their service providing an excellent product so speedly. I recommend this vendor to any for more than just the charger just because of the care I recieved. Thank you.

My jaw dropped when my local tool guy said two 5AH Batteries and charger was $238.00 with tax!! More than the price of an impact Driver and Drill Driver together! Let's look at it from a Marketing Manager's viewpoint. Whether Red, Yellow, or Blue — Batteries and Charger are really expensive!You want to finish the job without interruption, so you figure: "going to need two fully charged batteries to work uninterrupted". Two, 2AH batteries, not really all that cheap; might as well go for the 5AH to be safe to get in a day's work. A lot of work to do. $238,00? Gotta have 'em. You buy. Now you are committed – you've gone whole hog; the whole Enchilada. You find there are lots of other Tools you could use. You run across a really good deal Where Yellow, Red and Green are having a Sale at the Big Box store for the same tool you were thinking of buying - BUT - Batteries, plus a charger!? You have to buy Batteries for these beauties. It's not worth it! The big bucks you've already paid for the batteries you already have almost guarantee you won't jump ship and change brands. You're already locked into your present brand, so even though the next tool you want isn't on sale, it's still more economical to purchase it rather than a different brand. In 1905, King Gillette said: "We'll give 'em the Razor, but sell them the Blades." and so the beat goes on today.I think whenever someone makes the leap into "Battery World" they should play the Wedding March over the loud speaker as you are inputting put your Pin number into the Card Reader, as you are now virtually joined at the hip with the Brand you just bought.I am 83 years old and I have only one big project I need to do, refurbishing a 45 foot long 30 year old covered Deck. I am purchasing an Impact Driver for this one job, originally done with a 3/8 inch drill - (with My Son's help, he has his own [RED] tools - batteries not interchangeable). Still, way less expensive than hiring someone. Sooooo, it seems like it's worth saving a few bucks; (very few, compared to the whole nine yards). Sounds silly, but, it makes me feel good. Anyway; it's worth a shot.

Just what I needed

Didn’t even use for three months and go to charge the batteries again this year and one is completely dead and will not charge. I charged them before I put them away in a safe dark place. I’m not comfortable charging the other one because it charged in a matter of 10 minutes to 15 minutes and said it was fully charged and before I tested it it was at a one on the meter of three. Which I charged just last week ! What a waste of money.

It was a great deal!
