Buying Makita 18V LXT batteries from an authorized dealer is the only way to insure you are getting genuine Makita batteries. Be careful, poor quality Makita-look-alike counterfeits are being sold online. Home Depot has the lowest price you will find for the 2-pack LXT 6.0 Ah batteries. Fast shipping. Makita factory-sealed clear-plastic 2-pack. Thank you, Home Depot, for a great deal. 5-stars !!!

Great Batteries that Last a Long Time
I am impressed with how long these 5ah batteries last. If you only have these two you will be able to charge one full before the other ones needs charging.

    Hope the new BL1830B last 5 years like old BL1830
    Purchased a brushless XRJ07ZB reciprocating saw. Purchased BL1830B-2, 2 pack of 3.0 amp hour batteries for $99 before tax. My 5 year old batteries still work. New batteries fit older LXT cordless ☆ tools. Similar numbers. New battery has indicator LED

      I really like the Makita line of tools great quality and reliability. These batteries are great they last a long time because of how the charger keeps them cool while charging. I got them a great price.

      Couldn’t recommend the 5.0 Ah batteries more. Although they are heavier- suck it up, it builds muscle ;). I love that I can count on the quick charge time and how long each battery lasts. Depending what tool, I can go 2-4 hours on one battery using constantly. I now have three of them and watch for deals. I couldn’t be happier.

      After the $150 sticker shock for this battery subsided, I have been completely satisfied with its longevity while using it to drive deck screws. Lasted a solid 6 hours with continuous use and the charger had it ready to go again in roughly 30 minutes. Highly recommend!

      Got these on clearance. Perfect size and run time. They are the same size as the 3.0Ah ones but with a longer run time. Note: They will not work with older Makita tools that don't have the star on the battery receiver or yellow receiver and don't support the safety features of the newer batteries. Check the notches. Will not work with the bigger notch.

      The batteries are great. Hope they last longer than the original ones that came with my drill. I built this cabinet using my makita drill with the NW batteries.

      I had the 2.0ah that came with the drill which did great. But these are amazing. I have yet to have a project that I have ran these 5ah to even half. I wish I would have bought them a long time ago. I love the push bottom power indicator. The 5ah are only 1/2 longer than the 2ah batteries and the weight difference is minimal.

      I must have gotten a defective battery, because one of them has already started shutting off after one week of use. I will be sending it back to Makita. They have been really good about fixing any problems in the past.

      Battery worked well for me, I used this for my x2 tracksaw. Not enough to drain the battery so I can not attest to how long they will last for. Also with the rapid charger they charge in 45minutes which is greater

      I needed to buy new batteries to complete a deck project after my last original 3.0Ah battery died (after 12-13 years), and swapping around the one 4.0Ah battery I had really slowed things down ("Are you done with the battery yet? OK. Throw it over to me.") The fuel gauge is pretty nice after all the years of not knowing how close you were to a dead battery. And the capacity is pretty amazing. I used the packs for hours of screwing or drilling into pressure-treated lumber, and rarely got to half power. The only thing that challenged the batteries was the circular saw; cutting through a very wet, pressure-treated 2x12, cutting stair stringers. 12 feet took 3 batteries (almost with 2).

      These batteries are incredibly long lasting. I often go several consecutive days on a single 5.0AH battery charge.

      Long lasting battery. Used it to power a random orbital sander for 30 minutes, almost continuously. Still had 2 bars. Plugged it in the reciprocating saw to remove a door. Still showed 2 bars. They also last a while on the circular saw. With (2) 3Ah, (1) 4Ah, (2) 5Ah batteries & two chargers, I have enough batteries for all day, powering drill, impact driver, recip saw, circular saw, RO sander, and grinder. The battery level indicator is handy, but Makita should put them on the same side as the release button. As it is, when you plug the battery in, you can't check the battery level without first removing it.
