Hey there,
We'd love to tackle exactly these kinds of issues, but we just don't know every flaw for every device out there, nor can we document every repair project with our team of six tech writers. Something about them needing rest on weekends, or some b.s. to that effect.
So we have two paths you can venture down in order to help:
1. You can create a guide for this yourself, and show folks exactly how silly-easy it is to fix the Makita batteries. Start by going here: https://www.ifixit.com/Device/Tool
2. You can donate a device for this cause, and have out technical writing students create a set of guides for it. See our [https://www.ifixit.com/Info/Device_Donations|Device Donations] page for more info on how to get that stuff over to us.
Thanks, and happy fixing!
