Parkside X20V to Makita 18V Battery Adapter

Use your Parkside X20V batteries on Makita 18V LXT cordless tools, without buying into a second battery platform. The molded ABS housing keeps it light and hard-wearing, and pure copper contacts keep current delivery steady. Your existing batteries do more work, and there is no second ecosystem to buy into.

• Solid copper terminals, so less of the current is lost as heat.
• 5 mm² internal wiring, rated for 40A continuous with 80A peak at 18VDC for up to 2 seconds, so a high-draw tool is not held back by the adapter.
• Made for the Parkside X20V batteries sold at Lidl, so the fit is the one you already own.
• Covered by a 12-month warranty from the day it arrives.

Parkside X20V and Makita 18V LXT compatibility

It works in one direction only: Parkside batteries powering Makita tools. For the opposite pairing, see adapters that run on Makita 18V LXT batteries.

Compatibility can vary with the exact battery and tool model. Before ordering, confirm that your battery belongs to the Parkside X20V platform and that your tool takes Makita 18V LXT batteries.

Important charging and safety information

This adapter is for powering cordless tools and nothing else. It cannot charge Parkside or Makita batteries and must never be connected to a charger of any kind. Always take the battery out of the adapter before charging, and charge it on the original charger made for your Parkside X20V battery.
