Makita 18V to Craftsman Bolt-On 20V Battery Adapter
$36.15
Use your Makita 18V LXT batteries on Craftsman 20V Bolt-On 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. Fewer battery systems in the workshop, on the bench or in the van, and no extra chargers to find room for.

Makita 18V LXT and Craftsman 20V Bolt-On compatibility
It works in one direction only: Makita batteries powering Craftsman tools. For the opposite pairing, see adapters that run on Craftsman 20V Bolt-On batteries.
Compatibility can vary with the exact battery and tool model. Before ordering, confirm that your battery belongs to the Makita 18V LXT platform and that your tool takes Craftsman 20V Bolt-On batteries.
Important charging and safety information
This adapter is for powering cordless tools and nothing else. It cannot charge Makita or Craftsman 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 Makita 18V LXT battery.
