Makita 197599-5 LXT 18 V 3.0 Ah Lithium-ion Battery

The Makita 197599-5 LXT 18 V 3.0 Ah Li-Ion battery is a rechargeable power source designed for Makita 18 V LXT cordless power tools. It delivers 18 V with a 3.0 Ah capacity using lithium-ion cell technology. This capacity level balances runtime and portability for users needing a compact replacement or additional pack within the Makita 18 V LXT system. One battery is included in the package. A charger is not included, so a compatible Makita 18 V LXT charger must be purchased separately before first use. The pack suits professionals, tradespeople, and DIY users maintaining an existing Makita cordless tool system.

The 18 V 3.0 Ah battery weighs 640 g, which helps keep overall tool weight manageable during extended or overhead work. The construction is designed for regular handling in workshop and on-site environments. Its compact physical profile suits storage and transport between job locations, making it a practical spare for users who want to keep a second battery charged while the first is in use. Internal safety features support reliable performance over repeated charge and discharge cycles.
