Perfect working order, holds great charge, fuel gauge working well. Using it on my Makita xdt14z, it has not needed another charge yet, after light duty use. Hopefully it works for many years to come, with good lithium-ion battery maintenance practice. Plus, I believe all the cells are balanced with each other, so I won't get the problems that the 1830 (non-b) has with the computer controls hooked up to only one cell.

Need more time to review as battery has only been through a few cycles. Looks similar to a Makita Original Battery but looks like a knock-off to me. Looks like a good quality, feels like good quality, So far, so good.

This battery attaches properly, and functions properly with all of my Makita drills. I bought two replacement batteries, and they are brand new, so can’t speak of their longevity, at this point. The previous Makita batteries lasted about three years. There are lots of YouTube videos of how to revive a dead battery, which did not work on any of my previous dead batteries. I believe the main problem is that the computer chips built-in to the batteries, and the Makita chargers, are designed to only allow a certain number of charges and/or longevity of the battery, and then they shut down. Also, even if you do find a way to revive a dead lithium ion battery, you have to seriously worry about fire.

I scoured all the batteries until I was sure I was ordering batteries manufactured by Makita (there are many from Asia). We have two combo sets (4 tools) that use these batteries and they are getting more difficult to find. Over years we have ordered many batteries, so we know value. These were priced well and we received them earlier than expected.

Batteries are built good but they don’t hold a candle to the actual makita batteries from depot or more expensive ones off eBay or amazon. If u are using these to work everyday spend more and get more. These are good back ups or flashlight batteries but for drills abs saws they won’t last. I’m a construction company owner and they’ll get used but only in the radio or flashlight. Otherwise I’ll b ordering better ones. Hope this helps for future purchases
