Tools and Hardware Reviews of Makita BL1815 18-Volt 1.5 Ah Compact Lithium-Ion Battery
Customer Review: 'nuther battery gone BAD
Summary: 2 Stars
I purchased two of the Makita BTD1424W 18V drill kits a few years ago; one for me and one for my (female) wife. I've used Makita products for years and have found them to be just as rugged and reliable as competitors such as Bosch, Skil, and Milwaukee. These 18V drills just get the job done! Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for the (expensive) batteries that go with this otherwise excellent drill. I don't know if the problem is the charger or the battery pak, but I've had to replace too many batteries the charger indicates as "bad". It would be one thing if the batteries only cost $15 to $25 dollars, as you'd expect them to go away on a regular basis. However, when you purchase a battery as expensive as this one, you would expect the quality and longevity to be commensurate with the cost, and such is not the case. Whatever the problem is with the battery pak (bad chip in the battery, faulty charger, or just bad battery), it gives a black eye to Makita who manufactures otherwise EXCELLENT equipment. Unfortunately, I've invested too much in Maktia to switch, so I'll purchase a replacement battery, and hope that Makita has been paying attention to the criticisms of these batteries and made some improvements.Makita BL1815 18-Volt 1.5 Ah Compact Lithium-Ion Battery
