The Makita 196851-8 two-pack supplies two BL1815N 18V LXT compact 1.5Ah lithium-ion batteries for Makita 18V cordless tools. Each pack is a slide-on battery that works with the Makita 18V LXT platform. This is a two-pack of the compact BL1815N; it is not a kit with a charger or a tool.
Key Features
18V LXT compact 1.5Ah cells
Each battery is an 18V lithium-ion pack rated at 1.5Ah. Makita lists the compact BL1815N style as a slide-on pack for the 18V LXT platform, so it can be used as a lighter spare on compatible 18V tools.
Battery protection and charging communication
On the official Makita Canada page, the Battery Protection System is described as providing over-discharge, temperature and current protection when the pack is used with a STAR-marked tool. A built-in memory chip communicates with the charger CPU so the charge can be adjusted to the condition of that battery.
Optimum Charging System
Makita's Optimum Charging System uses three active controls — current, voltage and temperature — to manage the charge. Official charging time is listed as 22 minutes with a DC18RC Rapid Charger on the 196851-8 accessory page (an older accessory page also lists 15 minutes with DC18RC). Use only a compatible Makita charger.
Two batteries in the pack
Makita Canada identifies part number 196851-8 as the 2-pack option for model BL1815N, with 196235-0 as the 1-pack and 196890-8 as the 10-pack. This listing is the two-pack only.
