As a result, high temperatures occur in the battery, so that the battery life is extended, and the charging process is accelerated The 110v version of the DC18RC uses intelligent charging technology to control current, voltage and temperature to maximise battery life. It charges Makita 3.0Ah batteries in approximately 22 minutes, 4.0Ah Batteries in approximately 36 minutes and 5.0Ah Batteries in approximately 45 minutes. Built-in fan circulates air through the battery during the charging process to cool the battery for faster charge time Built-in CPU - gathers information from the battery's memory chip to determine optimum charging method The MAKITA DC18RC has a cooling fan and Active 3 Controls. This means that during the loading of the charging voltage, charging current, and temperature is held in the holes. The cooling system blows cool air into the battery. As a result, high temperatures occur in the battery, so that the battery life is extended, and the charging process is accelerated.

The DC18RC fast charger, also known as the Makita DC18RC Li-ion 7.2 / 14.4 / 18v LXT Charger, uses Intelligent Charging Technology to control current, voltage and temperature to maximize the battery life. The DC18RC can charges a BL1830B 18v LXT 3.0Ah battery in approximately 22 minutes - and to the fullest charge. This means that during the loading of the charging voltage, charging current, and temperature is held in the holesThe Makita DC18RD twin 18v Li-ion charger, charges 2 Makita 18 volt LXT lithium-ion batteries simultaneously. The rapid charge technology selects the optimum voltage and current and temperature is controlled by the forced air system that circulates air through the battery to prevent overheating. and a full charge sound alert confirms when the charge cycle is complete. MAKITA DC18RD FEATURES The Makita DC18RD/1 110v twin 18v Li-ion charger, charges 2 batteries simultaneously. The rapid charge technology selects the optimum voltage and current and temperature is controlled by the forced air system that circulates air through the battery to prevent overheating. and a full charge sound alert confirms when the charge cycle is complete. Large charging status indicator light gives a clear indication by LED in 3 colours (blue, green and red) with a raised lens

Makita’s 18v & 14v batteries have a built in memory chip that records the battery usage history. While the battery is connected it will transmit the data to the charger A great advantage of Lithium Ion technology is that it provides the user with the possibility to charge the batteries anytime, without any need to wait for their complete power deployment. A great improvement compared to older technologies like Ni-Cad Compatible with the ADP10 interchangeable adapter (sold separately) for charging 18v LXT Lithium batteries
