Train Horns Compatible with Makita Batteries

The Makita Quad Pro is the most powerful option in our Makita-compatible lineup.

Its extended metal trumpet configuration delivers the deepest, fullest tone and the strongest overall sound output, making it the top choice for maximum presence and impact.

No. The color only changes the look — not the tone or volume.

No, the battery is not included. You can use any original Makita 18V battery, or order one from us as an optional add-on.

Absolutely! All our Milwaukee-compatible Impact Train Air Horns work perfectly with any Makita 18V battery — genuine or aftermarket — so you can use the ones you already have.

Yes! Most models come with a wireless remote, with a range of up to 160 ft (≈50 m).

A standard car horn is designed for everyday traffic alerts, while Makita-compatible train horns are built to produce a much stronger, deeper, and more attention-grabbing sound.

These horns are intended for situations where maximum presence is needed — such as outdoor use, events, or controlled environments — and deliver a level of impact that goes well beyond typical vehicle horns.

Makita-compatible train air horn models — Dual, Quad, and Quad Pro — are available in three premium powder-coated finishes: Black, Red, and Chrome.

It’s not recommended. The wireless remote receiver draws a small amount of power even when the horn isn’t in use, which can fully drain the battery over time.

If your Train Horn won’t be used for more than 5 hours, unplug the battery to prevent deep discharge and extend its lifespan.

Yes. All Makita-compatible train air horn models — Dual, Quad, and Quad Pro — are fully assembled and pre-tested before shipping.

To use the horn, simply attach a charged Makita 18V compatible battery. No wiring, tools, or additional setup are required — it’s designed for quick and straightforward operation.

With a fully charged battery, you can expect extended use across many short activations on a single charge.

Actual runtime depends on the battery capacity (for example, 2Ah, 5Ah, or 8Ah) and how long each activation is held. All Makita-compatible train air horn models are designed for efficient power usage and consistent operation during normal use.

Makita-compatible train air horns produce a very strong, attention-grabbing sound that some customers choose to use in outdoor or property settings where a loud audible signal may help discourage unwanted presence.

Effectiveness can vary depending on the environment, distance, and situation. These products are not designed or marketed as pest-control or wildlife-control devices, and results are not guaranteed. Always use responsibly and in accordance with local laws and regulations.

Makita-compatible train air horns are water-resistant, not fully waterproof. They are designed to tolerate light rain, splashes, or brief exposure to moisture during normal outdoor use.

They are not intended for heavy rain, prolonged exposure to water, or full submersion. For best longevity and consistent performance, we recommend keeping the horn dry when not in use and avoiding extreme wet conditions.
