Fit Makita 6347D. Good Value, Makita Charger Works with them.
I was struggling to decide whether to buy a battery for my old beatup but trusty Makita 6347D drill or buy a new drill. The best price I found on Amazon was $40 for a single knockoff 1822 battery. At $40 for a knockoff red 1822 replacement battery or $100 for a Makita battery, it didn't make fiscal sense as I could buy a good quality drill for $60-80. Then one day the KINGTIANLE 2 Pack at $20 ea for the 1822 knockoff appeared. So I decided to buy the KINGTIANLEs and keep the old trusty Makita drill for as long as these batteries last.Here are my observations when using the new KINGTIANLE battery. -- LOOKS IDENTICAL. to all other red 1822 replacement batteries I have bought except for the mfr label. -- ORIGINAL MAKITA CHARGER WORKS: The original Makita factory charger appears to work fine with these batteries in that the red light is on when initially inserted and the green light comes one when they are fully charged. -- FULL CHARGE OUT OF THE BOX. The batteries arrived fully charged. The instructions indicate they need to be charged first but both batteries came to a green light full charge in just 5 minutes. -- AS STRONG AS OLD BATTERY: My current battery is an identical looking 8 month old red 1822 from another mfr and it was fully charged. I tested the drills strength with the old and each of the "as received" (not yet charged) KINGTIANLE batteries. I did this by simply holding the chuck in my closed hand and testing the torque against my hand. I felt the the old and the KINGTIANLE batteries were of equal strength. -- CAME WITH INSTRUCTIONS: Surprisingly the batteries came with instructions which I had not seen i prior batteries Ive bought. Maybe more surprisingly I read them! It was interesting to learn after reading that one should remove the battery from the charger after charged because for whatever reason leaving it in the charger will reduce the working life of the battery. The instructions suggested it was from a constant drain it experiences when in the charger. So I will from now on remove the batteries after charging is complete and hope to get more then the 16 months or so it seems to take before the other replacements I have bought would not longer hold a charge.So will these batteries last? Only time will tell. Ill report back if any problems are experienced or they begin to fail to hold a full charge. But for now 5 stars..

Horrible replacement batteries - Save your money and buy something else
I had a project that I knew I would be using my 18V Makita cordless drill for and I only had one battery. I figured I better buy a couple additional batteries so I would not be stuck waiting while the battery was charging. I purchased this pair thinking I would be good. Boy was I wrong. The first sign that something was wrong is that these batteries weighed about half of my other MiHi battery. I was thinking they must have improved battery technology since I bought my last battery (over 5 years ago). I freshly charge both of the batteries knowing I would be needing them my next day on my project. I went to use the batteries the next day and found that these 3600mAh batteries got less then 10 minutes of run time. My 5 year old 3000 mAh battery got over 30 minutes without a problem. Dare to say, I am sending these back for a refund. Save your time and money and buy something something else.

Perfect
I wanted to wait a while before writing a review to make sure they lasted. And they have so far. Got them in and put them on the charger for 8 hours each. They said fully charged within about 5 mins, but didnt want to risk short charging them and ruin them.

Look for another vendor
Got them and they both failed to take a charge. I tried 2 different chargers both indicated BAD battery

powerful
Seems to be as powerful as the original battery that came with the drill.These batteries are working. I left them on the charger overnight and now they are holding a charge very well. I am satisfied with these and hope they last.

Not good for miter saw
Bought pack of 2, with both batteries I only get a few cut with handheld saw. Not strong enough for 4 1/2 miter saw.

Pass
No way are these what they are rated for. They are a lot lighter than the Makita batteries and discharged fast. Ran my drill ok but would not spin my circular saw
