Three steps

Power, in the time it takes to clip in a battery.

No install, no rewiring. Clip in the Makita batteries you already own, and top them back up through the unit when they run low.

01 / CLIP IN

Attach your battery

Slide in one or two Makita 18V batteries — the brackets come fitted and ready to go.

02 / SWITCH ON

Pure sine wave, instantly

Flip the AC switch and get clean, stable power — safe for laptops, cameras and other sensitive electronics.

03 / PLUG IN

Run everything at once

AC outlet, two USB-C PD ports, USB-A and 12V DC — run several devices at once, up to 550W total.

Charging laptop, tablet and phone from the inverter
Built-in protection

Safe enough for the gear that actually matters.

  • +Pure sine wave output — safe for laptops, monitors, cameras and other sensitive electronics, not just power tools.
  • +8-point protection — overheat, overvoltage, overcurrent, undervoltage, overload, short circuit, ESD and EMI safeguards.
  • +Charges your batteries — plug a USB-C PD charger into the unit and it tops up the attached Makita batteries, at up to 65W depending on your charger.
  • +Live battery readout — digital display shows your batteries' remaining charge at a glance.
Two battery slots

Two Makita slots. Full 550W.

The unit ships with two Makita 18V brackets fitted, one per slot. Run a single battery for lighter loads (up to 300W), or two for the full 550W. The brackets are screw-mounted, so the unit is built to take other brands' brackets as they become available.

  • +4 brightness modes — High, Medium, Low and SOS flash for emergencies.
  • +Up to 800 lumens, adjustable via a simple press-and-hold switch.
  • +180° swivel head on an adjustable arm — direct light anywhere around camp or the job site.

Good to know

Questions, answered straight.

Does it include a battery?

No — batteries aren't included. It's designed for the Makita 18V batteries you already own. Two brackets come fitted, one per battery slot.

Does it work with DeWalt, Milwaukee or Bosch batteries?

Not yet — current stock is Makita 18V only. Versions for other brands are planned; get in touch if you'd like to hear when they're available.

Does it run at full power on one battery?

No — a single battery is capped at 300W and needs a pack rated for at least 15A continuous discharge. The full 550W rating requires two batteries connected at once.

Is it safe for laptops and cameras?

Yes. Pure sine wave output means stable, clean power suitable for sensitive electronics, not just tools and lights.

Can it charge my batteries?

Yes. The unit has no internal battery of its own — it runs straight off your Makita packs. To top them up, plug a USB-C PD charger into either USB-C port and it charges the attached batteries at whatever rate your charger supplies, up to 65W. A higher-wattage charger charges faster.

Does it come with a work light?

Yes — a flexible LED panel is built into the handle on every unit, with 4 modes including an SOS flash. It's standard, not an add-on.
