This is a two-pack of Makita's 18V LXT 5.0Ah lithium-ion batteries, the mid-capacity pack in the LXT line. Makita rates the charge time at 45 minutes with its Rapid Optimum Charger, faster than most 5.0Ah packs from rival systems. The batteries hold charge in storage and use STAR Protection to talk to the tool and cut off on overload, over-discharge and overheating. They fit only LXT tools with the Star Symbol or yellow battery receiver, so older or non-star Makita tools and other brands are out. For anyone already in the LXT system running saws, grinders or rotary hammers, a pair of 5.0Ah packs is the practical middle ground between light 3.0Ah packs and heavy 6.0Ah and larger ones.

Owners of Makita LXT tools generally rate the 5.0Ah pack as a solid balance of runtime and weight, and the fast charge time comes up often. Complaints center on the Star Symbol compatibility limit and on the pack's bulk in compact tools.
This is a two-pack of Makita 18V LXT lithium-ion batteries, each rated at 5.0Ah. Each battery charges in about 45 minutes. The batteries resist self-discharge, so they are ready to use after long periods of storage.
The batteries work only with Star Protection tools. These are marked with the Star Symbol and/or a yellow battery receiver under the tool. STAR Protection Computer Controls let the tool and battery exchange data in real time. They monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating.
The batteries can be charged with the Makita Rapid Optimum Charger, which is sold separately. It monitors current, voltage and temperature during charging, and a built-in fan cools the battery for faster, more efficient charging, even in hot weather.
