Does this play music when it charging?

It plays 'Ride the Lightning' if you're not careful

It seems there are a lot of replacement stuff, is this real charger by Makita?

Yes it's a Makita charger and 30 minute charge time! I bought one and two 3 amp batteries from amazon.

Does this charge all 4 batteries at once or does it charge one at a time?

I did some experimentation with the number of batteries that are changed. This will change 2 batteries at a time and once complete go to the next one/two. The right side is a pair and the left side is a pair. You can charge only one battery at a time on the two left chargers and only one batter at a time on the right two charges. The first battery inserted starts receiving the charge and will continue until full/complete. Once complete the other (if there is one) on the mated left or right pairing will begin charging. There does not seem to be any impact if you start with the inner or outer charging port of the mated pair (left or right pair). Putting just two batteries on the left mated pair or the right mated pair results in only one battery being charged even with only two batteries on the DC18SF. To charge two batteries at the same time keep them on the two different mated pairs.

Great Little Charger!

Charged my new Makita LXFD01 Drill Battery right up! Easy to use right of the box, my battery fit right on it, and performs great. Only thing to mention is that this charger has a built-in cooling fan, so it does have a little sound when it's plugged in and charging a battery... given that I'd make sure this charger is on a relatively flat surface with good ventilation around it to make sure it doesn't overheat. But besides that, a great Makita product!

Fast & free delivery

Great price usually to go to be true $28.00 bucks + tax and free delivery $110.00 online at home depot free in store pick up. Anyway I was a little bit skeptical The rapid charger came with absolutely no packaging bit of a mystery shipped in double bagged fed x bags looked it over very carefully to see it it was used only a had a little scuff mark on one side otherwise perfect, so I tried it right away much to my surprise it works perfectly (sofar) still a mystery but at this price I'd have to recommend it. I turned my 16 gauge makita acutally made in Japan cordless trim gun in to a kit charger and 2 batteries. I actually found a hard case for all this stuff to fit in a bit of a miracle on it own. (Coho tackle box) $29.00 at Costco. $95.00 else where

Makita charging base

This Makita rapid charger is reliable, fast, and does exactly what you expect from a genuine Makita product. It charges 18V LXT batteries quickly and efficiently, which is great when you’re rotating tools on a busy job or home project. The charger feels solid and well built, with clear indicators that make it easy to see charging status at a glance. The AU plug works perfectly for local use, even though it comes in plain packaging. Overall, it’s a dependable charger that’s ideal for anyone already using Makita 18V tools.

Wonderful charger, very robust

I have a bunch of the DC18RC... They work well, oldest one is now 15plus years old, no issues whatsoever and fast battery charges as it is the RC Rapid Charge model. Has the cooling fan to keep the batteries thermally in check.
