Customer Reviews
Summary : Powerful and fast-charging!
Review : These batteries are the fastest charging cordless tool batteries I've ever used and they will put in a full day's work and then some before you have to recharge them. The 3.0 Amp Hour batteries take about 35-40 minutes to charge (there are 1.8Ah batteries for the drills that take less than 20 minutes!) if completely depleted and they're ready to take up again right where they left off! As some other reviews have mentioned, the only down side to them is there's very little warning when they do run out of juice, but seen from another point of view, they do keep running strong up to the last minute. So that's a tradeoff I can live with. I have four Makita tools that use this battery, and each has ONE battery, no extra spares, and I've never had to completely stop working to charge a battery. I just use one from another tool while I charge the one that ran down. Unlike other brands where I had to have 1-2 extra batteries for each tool!
Summary : very pleased
Review : The order i put in was filled fast and on time , the battery is great and the price was excellent i will order again and will look for what i need here, THANKS
Summary : Endless power!
Review : Really, these batteries provide seemingly endless power. They hold their charge for weeks with very little loss. I can use one battery for drilling and driving throughout an entire (moderately sized) project. They are extremely lightweight and charge in twenty minutes or less usually (in hot weather it takes longer). All three of mine slide on and off easily, with no issues of binding or falling off. With all the praise comes a VERY important caveat. DO NOT run these batteries into the ground. The instructions state that as soon as you notice a loss of power, stop and charge. If you over-discharge Li-Ion batteries, you can seriously degrade the life of the battery. These batteries are 1/3 cheaper on Amazon.com than at the home centers, so buy from here! Also, only the cells themselves are made in Japan, all other parts are made and final assembly is in China.
