MakitaADP05 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Cordless Power Source, Power Source Only

A game-changer on job sites and outdoor shoots—turns any Makita LXT battery into a USB charger. Fast charging, dual USB ports (2.1A), very rugged and compact. Purchase it back in 2019 and still work pretty well.

Nice and compact, and it connects to any Makita battery. Depending on the battery size, it can last for days charging a phone or laptop. It also has an on/off switch so you don’t waste battery!

Recently I purchased a Makita 18v combo kit with a drill and impact driver. Since I only use my tools for home diy projects, I wanted to have another use for the batteries and hope a more constant use would help keep them cycled. For some reason these USB chargers are rarely seen at my local big box store and first heard about them from a review on the DeWalt version. Pricing is slightly cheaper on the Makita version, and has two USB ports which is a plus. First impressions is the build quality of the charger is nice, plastic feels like the same material as the power tools, if I can quote AvE it's a glassfiber reinforced plastic (don't quote me on that). The version I received has the USB ports sealed with a simple rubber cap and sliding on/off switch for the ports.The charger also has a belt clip that feels strong but I didn't use this. Honestly I think it would hold up to 5ah batteries, it's just too bulky to have in your belt and walk around. The figment was very tight to the Makita 5ah battery I tested, actually nice to see this since some brands have very loose connections. No issues removing or connecting the battery.I tested the charging with a 5ah battery on four bars (Makitas version of a full pack) but it was used on my impact for an hour or so, technically not 100% full. Charging my iPhone worked pretty quickly, I think the rate was the same as any wall charger or portable battery charger like those 10000mah packs.When I switched to charging my 4th gen iPad, the iPad was at 0% and took about two bars to charge the iPad. I was a bit surprised how much it took to charge the iPad but I think it's normal considering the 5ah pack has only a cell or more than those USB portable battery packs (correct me I'm wrong). If you only need a USB charger, Amazon has a few that are cheaper than buying this charger considering the cost of a Makita battery is at least $40.For everything that is presented on this product is 100% and going to keep this in my toolbox for charging, don't forget to pick up an extra cable for your phone as well.There is one call out which I have seen mentioned on other reviews is the risk of draining your battery too low. Some of the battery packs have logic that if the pack is entirely 0% charge it may register as faulty and no longer work. I haven't experienced this nor do I know Makita has this enabled but I recommend to only use this as a topping off charger for your phone.

Shoot... this here gadget is fantastic. I grab my Makita drill, an extra battery and hop on the 4x4 to mosey 85 acres out to pasture and fix a gate out near the old pump house. I lose control trying to dodge a field critter, flip over the 4x4 and break both of my legs. I was able to reach for my phone and it was dead. I, however, had this charger and a drill battery with me and was able to get my phone plugged in and turned on to call my wife or call 911. As soon as I started trying to dial, I blacked out from the intense pain. The last thing I did was try and dial my wife hoping that she would know something was wrong and send one of the boys down in the old Dodge to clean me up and run me down to Dr. Hinkley near the county line..When I woke up in the hospital, they said that a neighbor... a darned good Samaritan, in the other pasture saw me get hurt and rode over to help me out right after I blacked out and dialed my wife. I still believe, to this day, that man was an Angel (like in that show "touched by an angel" with Roma Downey and Della Reese). Sadly, my wife never got that call becasue there's no cell-phone coverage on that side of the property. Not since the railroad put in that new high voltage tower on the other side of the McIntosh's Alpaca Farm. Thank goodness for this stranger with a satellite phone who was able to call 911. By the time the ambulance showed up (20 minutes) they unplugged my phone and put it in my pocket so I would have it at the hospital when I woke up. They told me that when they found me my phone was at a 50% charge. Not too shabby for 20 minutes of charging a totally dead battery.I guess the Battery charger really didn't help save my life. It couldn't have. There was no reception anyway. But I was still happy to have a cell phone with an OK charge when I woke up in the hospital. I was able to ignore some of my pain and the disorienting effects of the heavy pain killers they were pumping into my body intravenously, because I could listen to my favorite Merle Haggard album on the MP3s inside of the phone. I finally knew that I was going to revocer and I was going to survive my accident when I was able to just listen to that darned Merle album. That song where he sings about how the "best part of dyin' is livin' real good" was just what I needed in that moment. It helped me make the decision to live.I don't even know if any of that is true, but I believe it and it's my truth.Decent little charger attachment. Would recommend.

Works good but is a little tight sliding on and off the battery

Works great only thing I would change add a usb-c port as well
