Craftsman 20V and Makita 18V LXT compatibility
It works in one direction only: Craftsman 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 Craftsman 20V 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 Craftsman 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 Craftsman 20V battery.
