I didn't know Makita were known for chewing through batteries
My brushless drill seems to go forever on a single charge to the point I forget it needs recharging!

My brushless drill also goes forever on a 3Ah battery
but the circular saw chews through a 5Ah in a couple of hours

Yeah, my Combi lasts forever on a 5Ah battery, too.
But like My Name says, start using anything with a bit of grunt (Circular Saw/Mitre Saw/etc) and the you'll learn pretty quickly to keep a second battery on charge!
The batterys will charge significantly faster than you can run them down most of the time, though. So it's not a massive inconvenience, just a midly annoying one.
