Makita 12V max CXT Batteries
Makita 12V max CXT Batteries, Chargers, and Power Sources
This collection powers the Makita 12V max CXT line. Batteries include the BL1021B 2.0Ah and BL1041B 4.0Ah, sold single or in 2-packs, and the BL1021BDC1 starter pack with a charger. Chargers include the DC10SB and DC10WD, plus the DC18RE, which charges both CXT and 18V LXT packs. Power sources such as the ADP06 and ADP08 turn a CXT battery into a portable power source, with USB ports on some models. A few older pod-style 12V packs are listed for legacy tools.
What to Look For
- Capacity. The 2.0Ah pack keeps a drill or ratchet light. The 4.0Ah pack runs saws and lights longer.
- Battery style. CXT packs slide on. The BL1014 and the Ni-MH pod pack are for older pod-style tools.
- Charger choice. The DC18RE makes sense if you also own 18V LXT tools.

Makita 12V max CXT Batteries FAQ
Should I buy the starter pack or a single battery?
If you bought tool-only CXT tools and have no charger, the BL1021BDC1 starter pack covers both. If you already own a charger, a 2-pack of batteries is the better buy.
What warranty covers Makita CXT batteries and chargers?
Makita covers its lithium-ion batteries and chargers with a 3-year limited warranty. Using non-genuine or knock-off batteries is excluded, so stick with Makita packs to keep tools and batteries eligible.
