The Makita 5.0Ah battery has a category-leading charge time of only 45 minutes, so it spends more time working and less time sitting on the charger. \n\nThe 18V LXT® 5.0Ah battery is compatible only with Star Protection tools, indicated by the Star Symbol™ and\/or Yellow Battery Receiver under the tool. \n\nMakita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries resist self-discharge so they’re ready for use even after long periods of storage. The Makita Rapid Optimum Charger (sold separately) is a smart-charging system that communicates with the battery during the charging process to monitor current, voltage and temperature. This advanced charging technology helps optimize battery life and deliver a faster charge. In addition, the Charger has a built-in fan to cool the battery for faster and more efficient charging, even in hot weather conditions. \n\nFor improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created STAR Protection Computer Controls™. STAR Protection is communication technology that allows the tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. Makita, the innovation leader in cordless tool technology, has the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated L.E.D. battery charge level indicator allows user to monitor battery charge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides up to 65% more run time per charge compared to BL1830\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReaches full charge in 45 minutes or less\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible only with Star Protection tools, indicated by the Star Symbol™ and\/or Yellow Battery Receiver under the tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattery delivers consistent power and run time in extreme temperatures, even in winter (-4°F\/-20°C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEquipped with Star Protection Computer Controls™ to protect against overloading, over-discharging and over-heating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImpact-resistant outer case and shock-absorbing inner-liner are engineered to protect the battery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSixteen contact terminals maintain a constant connection with the tool to help prevent power loss or fluctuation, even during high-vibration applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattery resists self-discharge and remains ready for use even after long periods of storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMakita 18V Lithium-Ion is the world's largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style battery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMakita technology delivers category-leading charge time so the battery spends more time working and less time sitting on the charger (charger not included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-year limited warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSystem : 18V LXT®\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVoltage : 18V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattery Capacity (Ah) : 5.0Ah\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattery Type : Lithium-Ion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattery Charge Time (minutes) : 45\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackage Quantity : 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShipping Weight : 1.5 lbs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUPC Code : 088381-463911\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaged Depth (in) : 4.25\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaged Height (in) : 6.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaged Width (in) : 6.75\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eManufacturer Resources\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/kollective.blob.core.windows.net\/uploads\/Images\/Archive\/Exported%20July%202025\/BL1850B\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eMakita BL1850 Safety Data Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/kollective.blob.core.windows.net\/uploads\/Images\/Archive\/Exported%20July%202025\/BL1850B\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eMakita BL1850B Safety Data Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/kollective.blob.core.windows.net\/uploads\/Images\/Archive\/Exported%20July%202025\/BL1850B\/Makita%20BL1820B_BL1840B_BL1850B%20New%20Tool%20Flyer%20%28English%29.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eMakita BL1820B\/BL1840B\/BL1850B New Tool Flyer (English)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Makita","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67729368056098,"sku":"BL1850B","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/5712\/2594\/files\/Makita_20BL1850B_20Product_20Shot_06ed45c7-7391-412b-a7cc-91c24a52deb8.jpg?v=1793980314","url":"https:\/\/procontractorsupplyinc.com\/products\/makita-bl1850b","provider":"ProContractor Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
