My tool purchases included a replacement charger for Makita-style removable batteries.
The featured Amazon option is Makita DC18RC Rapid Charger.
Where it fits my build
The van build used several working spaces, including the patio for the storage-bin drawer and an outdoor setup for the roof equipment. I measured and assembled the drawer frame on the patio before fitting the lining and slides.
During the earlier cargo-floor cleanup, I wrote about loading the tools back into the van and driving out to work. Moving and organizing the equipment was part of the practical routine around the fabrication tasks.

My build notes
The workshop arrangements changed with the job. The diary photos show both a timber assembly area and a portable saw setup, providing context for the work-holding and storage equipment in my purchases.
The kit had to move between storage, transport and the place where I was working.
Alternative products
Two alternatives to compare
The DC18RC and DC18SD provide single charging positions. The DC18RD adds a second port, making charging layout the main difference between these Makita options.
Makita DC18SD Battery Charger
This charger is designed for the Makita slide-battery system identified in its listing. It provides a single charging position in a corded desktop unit.
