The G-series range from Makita is a different lithium-ion battery platform to the Makita LXT range of professional cordless power tools, and is powered exclusively by the G-Series battery and DC18WA charger.
Produced to a quality far exceeding that of DIY products, the G-series range offers a comprehensive catalogue of tools at an attractive market price.
The G-Series battery is identifiable by the white or grey top section, and offers a 1.3 amp hour battery capacity in both 14.4v and 18v platforms. A 60-minute charge time is achieved with the G-Series DC18WA battery charger.
G-Series batteries are not compatible with the Makita LXT range of cordless tools or chargers.
Model DC18WA is a Makita charger developed specially for charging new slide-style Li-ion batteries. New Makita Li-ion batteries model BL1411G (14.4V-1.1Ah) and model BL1811G (18V-1.1Ah) can be charged approximately in 60 minutes. But the maktec band Li-ion batteries designed with the same concept, model L1451 (14.4V-1.1Ah) and model L1851(18V-1.1Ah) cannot be charged.
