Our warranty does not extended to any products that are physically damaged or that are not under normal operating conditions as a result of misuse or improper installation on the buyer/user's part. Tool batteries can handle usually 800 to 1,000 charges. Don't recharge a drill battery if you've used it for just a few minutes. Always use the correct combination of battery and charger. Never try to mix them, even if the battery fits physically. You’ll either undercharge, which is pointless, or overcharge, which reduces battery life and can be dangerous. FAQ Q. Is it better to always use Makita-brand batteries? I’ve heard copies can be dangerous.
Our aggressive pricing allows us to distribute only the freshest batteries ensuring you receive the best performing batteries available. Don't leave them in the car either in the cabin or the trunk. Heat (above 140 degrees F) and subzero cold can reduce power tool battery life by 15 percent. Our replacement MAKITA PA18 power tool batteries are usually lower in price and usually exceed the specifications of OEM MAKITA PA18 power tool batteries.This PA18 battery has been manufactured with high quality components. It conforms with the exact specification of the original manufacturer and the battery is guaranteed against all manufacturing defects. Exercise the Battery - Do not leave the battery dormant for long periods of time. We recommend using the battery at least once every two to three weeks.
Makita PA18 battery by Tool-battery.co.uk is designed for use with the Makita cordless drill. The PA18 is designed to be 100% compatible with more other part numbers too. Our Makita power tool batteries are precision-engineered and rigorously tested for voltage, capacity, compatibility and safety to meet and exceed original equipment manufacturer specifications. Recharge batteries based on the type. There’s some confusion about whether you should let batteries run all the way down before recharging. It depends on the type. NiCad batteries have what’s called a “memory effect.” For example, if they’re still one-quarter charged when you recharge them, they “remember” that, and only provide a three-quarter charge. This effect gets worse each time, so they need to be “deep discharged” (run as flat as possible) before recharging. NiMH and Li-ion batteries don’t have the same problem, so you can recharge them whenever convenient, as soon as your tool isn’t working at peak performance. A. It’s impossible to know precisely because it depends on the battery type, the tool it’s fitted to, and the conditions of use. We can make some generalizations, though. NiCad batteries are usually good for around 18 months; NiMH for between two and three years. Batteries in Makita’s latest Li-ion 18V LXT range have a three-year warranty, so clearly the company expects them to last longer. Five years isn’t uncommon. Of course, all of this depends on proper care and recharging. Q. Is it cheaper to rebuild a Makita battery with new components? For all batteries a margin of 0.1V difference in the voltage is safe. If the capacity (Ah) of the battery is higher than the capacity of the original battery it will enable a longer life expectancy. Don’t overcharge the batteries. Overcharging can dramatically reduce the performance of your batteries, particularly NiCd and NiMH types. A short while won’t make much difference, but don’t leave batteries in the charger for any longer than necessary after they’ve reached full charge. Some Makita batteries have circuitry to prevent overcharging, but it’s best not put it to the test. Makita’s Lithium-ion Extreme Technology (LXT) batteries have useful charge indicators.

Don't store a discharged battery that has less than one-half charge. Give it a full charge and then store it.
