Build your own tool kit with the Makita 40V max XGT® Battery and Charger Starter Pack (4.0Ah) (BL4040DC1). Makita offers over 170 XGT® equipment and tools that utilize 40V Lithium-ion batteries, most available as "bare tools" (tool only, no batteries or charger included). Pick up the Makita® Battery and Rapid Optimum Charger Starter Pack, then purchase the 40V "bare tools" you need to get the job done. It's an ideal way to start building a Makita® XGT Cordless System.

XGT® batteries feature an advanced design impact-resistant outer case and shock-absorbing inner-liner engineered to protect the battery in harsh job site environments. The XGT® Rapid Charger’s built-in chip thoroughly communicates during the charging process to control current, voltage, and temperature for more efficient charging. The digital communication within XGT® actively monitors and protects against overload, over-discharge and overheating.

XGT® is a system of equipment, tools, batteries, and chargers utilizing 40v max lithium-ion batteries. XGT is engineered to deliver high power to take on high-demand applications, allowing users to completely transition to a cordless job site. XGT® is equipped with advanced brushless motor engineering, intelligent digital communication, and superior durability features to outpower, outsmart and outlast the rest.
