Built for pros who hate downtime
The Torxup VoltGuard 6500 turns flat packs into ready-to-work power, fast. A 6.5A rapid profile pushes early-stage recovery, then tapers intelligently to protect cells — so you win both speed and battery life. It’s the ideal alternative for searchers of compatible with “Makita 18V 6A charger” or DC18RC who want rapid pace, smart cooling, and a better value path to a multi-bay bench.
Why crews choose Torxup
- SMART LCD precision — live voltage, current (A) and % state plus clear LED status bars for <80%, ≥80%, full, or fault.
- 6.5A ULTRA-FAST — up to 50% quicker than 3.0A units; typical 5.0Ah in ~50–55 mins.
- Active fan cooling — pulls air through the pack/charger during the heavy-lift phase to control heat.
- Advanced protection — over-heat, over-voltage, short-circuit and fault-battery detection.
- Workshop-ready — rugged case, cooling vents, and stable base for bench boards.
- Certified & guaranteed — CE compliant, 30-day money back, 12-month warranty from Torxup.
Compatible with Makita LXT 14.4–18V slide-type Li-ion packs (and Torxup packs), including BL1815, BL1830, BL1840, BL1850, BL1860. VoltGuard 6500 targets the same rapid-class outcomes — speed, cooling, reliability.
What you’ll notice on day one
- Faster turn-arounds: coffee-break top-ups become genuinely useful.
- Lower heat stress: active cooling + staged top-off protects cells.
Smarter decisions: LCD shows when 80% is enough to get back on the tool.
Usage tips for longer battery life
- Let hot packs cool a few minutes before charging.
- Keep rear vents clear; mount chargers on a ply board with 100–150 mm clearance.
- Rotate at least 4 packs across two chargers for smooth workflow.
- Store long-idle packs at 40–60% rather than full.
