This really is a fast charger which is much better than the standard charger which came with my Makita drills, there is a built in fan which helps with cooling when charging, it was nice to see the percentage charge increasing rapidly, if you have larger capacity batteries then I would say that one if these fast chargers is a must.
Well made with a nice clear display, I think that this is a little expensive but when time is money this is well worth it, I only want for DIY use but I like the faster charging.

Not much to see here apart from that this is the best charger I've ever owned. A charger that caters for all of my batteries and has a digital display that shows the charge level.

This is a fast charger, not something that I get too excited about as I'm not sure if fast charging can affect the longevity of the batteries, but at the cost of batteries these days, it's still a no brainer.

The unit has also been well built, tough and strong to be used by anyone on the tools.

I'm using my power tools nonstop and waiting for the batteries to charge is the worst. Bought this quick charger and it's been wonderful. Charged my 5.0ah battery in what seemed like a blink of an eye, certainly in under an hour. LCD display is easy to read, lets you know exactly what's happening. Charges my other LXT Li-ion batteries as well. Fan is loud but I'll put up with that for the charging speed. Good addition to my workshop.

Great charger for my Makita batteries - it's definitely faster than the OEM model, I'd say 33-50% faster.

It's cool as these have a built in cooling function - fans! So it keeps the battery at a reasonable temperature whilst it's super fast charging. You get a nice display that tells you the charging status too.

Don't see a reason to use my original anymore, this is far superior and great value for money - as it makes everything faster and works great!

Really impressed with this charger — it’s far better than my original Makita one. The build quality feels solid and well-made, with no cheap parts or flimsy bits. It’s got a large, clear LCD screen that shows the charging status properly, which is a nice touch.
Charging speed is excellent — noticeably faster than what I was used to. It doesn’t get hot while running, which gives a bit more peace of mind when leaving batteries on charge. Compatibility has been spot on too — works well with both my Makita LXT 14.4V–18V batteries and the Torxup packs I’ve got, including BL1830 and BL1850 types.
All in all, it exceeded what I was expecting. Does the job better than I thought, and I’d definitely recommend it if you want something that’s quick, reliable, and built to last.

I got this respirator for use when 3D printing with resin, which can release harmful chemicals (VOCs) that should never be inhaled. I equipped the respirator before even opening the resin bottle so I had no idea what it smelled like, but having now smelled the fumes with the respirator off, it completely eliminates the smell. That doesn't guarantee it gets rid of all particulate matter, however I also haven't had any side effects commonly caused by 3D printing resin.

I’m glad you get back up filters, the whole thing was easy to assemble and it seems sturdy for now. You can adjust this to your face for quite a tight fit, I think it’s a good mask. It looks good too!

Torxup CoreMask Filtered Mask :

I believe that this might be my first modular mask that can be taken apart and cleaned thoroughly.

Its comfortable to wear because the rubber seems very soft and like most masks, fitting a filter is easy.

Great mask. Comfy. Used it for fibreglassing and no odour. Definitely recommend at this price.

Used this mask to spray expanding foam, very good
