Did some Makita battery shopping this morning for some 3ah batteries, but ended up with this product. $/ah seems like a good deal on this product compared to the other sizes. Only compared against big box stores. Amazon and Ebay will be cheaper but I've heard there are a lot of knock offs out there.

Personally, for this price I'd rather wait on a sale that has a tool + free batteries. I've about 14 or so batteries and have never bought them individually.

That said, if you need batteries now, this isn't too bad for a battery only deal.

Definitely would've waited a few days as someone always seems to have this with a free tool, on sale.

FREE TOOL SALE
They have several options to choose from and from the looks of it you can return the battery and charger and keep the free tool for a reduced price

Haha agreed. I don't even know why I own a Makita chainsaw when I've never used one before or doing anything related to one. Tool is an expensive addiction for men.
