Makita 40V Max XGT 4.0ah Battery BL4040F
While Makita already has a wide assortment of XGT 40V max batteries, including an existing 4.0ah battery (BL4040), so what makes this seemingly similar battery any different than that one? For one Makita is claiming that this one delivers up to 35% more power than the BL4040 model. And not only that but is said to also run up to 32% cooler as well. All while being 34% more compact than their current 40V 5.0ah battery.
This is all thanks to their use of cylindrical 21700 tabless cells that allows the flow of electricity through many paths rather than concentrating through just the tabs. This is said to improve efficiency, thermal management, and overall battery performance.
This battery has the 4 bar fuel gauge and recharges un 45 minutes or less.
It is available to order and priced at $259 each battery.
