Full details
This Makita 40V Max XGT Battery & Charger Kit is designed for professionals and serious DIYers who rely on Makita's XGT line of cordless tools, particularly those requiring sustained high power. Its key benefit is rapid charging and extended runtime, ensuring minimal downtime on job sites.

The kit includes two 2.5Ah batteries and a charger engineered for optimal charging of these powerful Li-ion cells.

Troubleshooting
Battery not charging
Ensure the battery is correctly seated on the charger and the charger is plugged into a working power outlet. Check if battery terminals are clean. Try a different outlet.
Charger indicator lights not functioning
Unplug the charger and wait a few minutes, then plug it back in. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Battery drains faster than expected
Ensure the battery is fully charged before use. Check the tool's power consumption and consider if the task exceeds the battery's capacity for continuous high-drain use. Ensure no accessories are drawing power unnecessarily.
