Hi, i have bought the DC18RAT few mounts ago, with 2 Makita's tools in one case, after working with the tools for this period I used the charger and it blow up, i herd load noise and it stop working, i an a contractor and I allways use Makita's tools and it's the first time this thing happens, needless to say that it's got me to spend more time and money for buing alternative tools until this problem will be solved, thanks for the help Shai
