Power Up Your Tools: Get Waitley'S 2-Pack BL1850B-2 18V Replacement Batteries With LED Indicator Review

Charged battery twice, now has failed completely and will not recharge. They fit, but poorly in Makita charger. I am now contacting company in China for replacement or refund. I did get a refund for one battery. Easy and fast. Other battery is still working. Only charged once. Follow up. Second battery has died. Charged maybe 5-6 times total. Never let charge on battery run down completely before recharge, usually recharge at 40%. I will not buy again. My original Makita batteries are still…

I bought two Waitley BL-1850B 5.0 AH batteries for my Makita tools in late May 2020. They worked in Summer 2020 and 2021. Very light use. Less than 10 uses each. I charged them 100% and left them next to the charger in July 2021. I needed to blow some leaves in November 2021 and neither would charge. both showed faults. I will have to throw them away. The original Makita 4.0 AH battery is going strong. no deterioration. I am very disappointed.

Co. does not stand behind its products . One battery went bad. I sent it back because they were going to replace.it. Nothing after a month. Costed me $14 to sent it.

These batteries are holding up well although it's only been a few months. They hold a charge longer than the OEM 3Ah batteries. Time will tell as to durability, but as satisfied thus far.

Batteries fit and charge as they should. I have Makita 36v equipment that uses the two battery system. The batteries spend down at different rates and when one reaches at or about 20% the equipment starts a warning stall. It's really helpful to see the available power in numeric form by percent, rather than the less informative bar display. With the numbers, monitoring which battery of the two is lowest makes swapping out much less of a chore, as it is usually the case, that only one battery at

Doesn't snap into charger well, but got past that issue. 3 months of light use and one pack is already DOA. Won't show a charge and the charger says it is toast. I didn't expect it to be as good as the OEM, but I expected better than this

One of the two batteries stopped accepting a recharge after the second time it was charged on a Makita charger. Charge indicator stays at 15%.

Have tried many generic batteries for my Makitas. Some are good, some are horrible, but these are absolutely incredible! I build country furniture for a company that distributes all over the Southeast. I drive 3000 Screws A-day and the same AML of counter sink holes. I've only spattery is for just 2 years now Can I can normally run 3 days on a charge! I run 2 of them each day in 2 separate impact drivers and after 2 years they still work like the day I bought them. The key to veneries tended…

I have owned Mikita products for 20+ years but their batteries come at a premium. The circuit board in the batteries fail. These replacement batteries have been excellent so far and I really like the charge indicator on the side that you can press and check the charge level. They fir great in the charger as well as the device.

Seam to perform well good value to keep older tools alive. Having a little trouble with fit on drill and charger a little force and everything goes together.

Battery only lasted 15 months, now it won’t take a charge. I always kept it charged and it was never abused. Thanks for attention.

Nice looking product that came in a nice box, BUT it did not slide in to my tools or charger all the way "in". I took a close look at the OEM Makita battery compared to this product and the yellow connector is not centered correctly. Thus it will not dock as it should.Sorry, I thought I could save a few bucks, but at the end I costed me valuable time.I will not purchase again.

I've had these for bout 6 months now and they are still working great. I'm not sure how they last under heavy daily use but so far for me they have been a great value and I've had no problems at all.

So far these are excellent batteries, but I have not had years to use them. Hopefully they last for years like my original Makita batteries have. I will say that the price is very attractive, and the digital indicator on the back actually is much easier to understand and read than the Makita stock batteries.

100% compatible with my Makita XCU03 chainsaw and Enegitech 18V Battery Charger DC18RD. And it has percentage displays for the amount of charge on the battery. This is a nice touch.

I have used these now for 4 months in my weed trimmer and reciprocating saw. They definitely hold a charge longer than the 4Ahr Makita batteries. Good value.

Bought these for a Makita drill and driver set, seem to work great, lot's of juice. However, they doing fit perfectly on the Makita branded charger, seems like a molded plastic issue. They require some extra effort and tinkering to get them to align and charge properly. Not a deal-breaker, just something to be aware of. Not able to speak to longevity, but the first few times i've used them they seem great. Would purchase again.

I purchased 2 of these batteries. I have been using one mostly. The second I used as a backup battery. It has been charged three times since I purchased it in November last year. On the third charge the charger was giving me the error that means the control board in the battery is faulty. The other battery I use as my main battery is still working so that is why I have mixed feelings about it. I was charging all of my batteries in preperation for what is now hurricane Dorian since these have a…

So far I haven't found anything to dislike. It's too soon to discuss longevity. If these keep functioning the way they have thus far, this is a great money saver over the name brand.

Got these for my makita cordless tools. drills, drivers, recip saw - to supplement my Makita batts.Nice affordable alternative to makitas $$$.Had another set of Waitleys for 2 years, one just conked out, so good longevity and time for another pair for me.I will say every one has same fit issue, a bit too snug which makes it difficult to remove them from tool. Still worthwhile over all.
