This charger arrived in a timely manner and works excellently. When my 18-volt 3.0 AH batteries are fully depleted, it charges them fully again in about a half hour. I'd recommend this product to anyone using Makita lithium-ion batteries.

Prompt shipping and batteries work great. As others have mentioned the lifetime is only a couple of years, but they work great until then.

I was scrambling to get a replacement charger when I lost the original at a job site. Got sticker shock when trying to find local replacements. Almost the cost of buying new set of tools. Checked online and found the price with shipping much more reasonable. Ordered and received product within the stated delivery time frame. Unit was well packed and came in original blister pack. Worked right out of the box to get my tools back on track. Gotta love competition! Highly recommended.
