Get outside with Outdoor Adventure, a new series of cordless products that operate within the LXT system. Outdoor Adventure Products feature advanced Technology, delivering maximum performance and efficiency for the outdoors. Makita offers hundreds of products within the 18V LXT system so you can create your own adventure.
The Outdoor Adventure 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Battery and Charger Starter Pack (4.0Ah) (ADBL1840BDC1) is a great companion to "bare tools" (tool only, battery and charger sold separately) that are offered as part of the Outdoor Adventure 18V LXT lineup. Pick up the Outdoor Adventure Battery and Charger Starter Pack, then purchase the 18V "bare tools" you need to enjoy the outdoors.
Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries resist self-discharge so they're ready for use even after long periods of storage. The Makita Rapid Optimum Charger 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.
For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls. Star Protection is a communication Technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.
It's part of Makita's expanding 18V Lithium-Ion System, the world's largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.
