    About Makita's 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Tool Series
    As one of the pioneers driving the cordless tool revolution, Makita changed the game with its breakthrough 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Series. Three years after its debut, Makita's LXT Series has grown from seven to over 35 tools, providing a wide range of cordless solutions for professional tradesmen. Makita also added 18V compact lithium-ion for cordless power in a more compact size. Makita's 18V Lithium-Ion batteries and ENERGY STAR rated Optimum Charging System provide several benefits over old battery technology. When compared to traditional 18V Ni-Cd batteries, Makita's 18V Lithium-Ion batteries have 40% less weight, longer run time, and five-times lower self-discharge to keep cells active and ready to use at any time.

    Makita's 18V Lithium-Ion battery delivers 2,000 cycles--2.5X more than Ni-Cd. In addition, built-in shock absorbing features help protect the battery, and 16 firm-holding contact terminals deliver constant high power. During the charging process, a built-in memory chip in the battery communicates with the Optimum Charger for a more efficient charge, extending the battery life. Makita's Optimum Charger is also faster: it will charge an 18V LXT Lithium-Ion battery in just 30 minutes, and an 18V compact lithium-ion battery in only 15 minutes. Makita also offers a Rapid Automotive Charger for 18V LXT and 18V compact lithium-ion batteries that plugs into 12V DC sockets equipped in most automobiles and trucks for added mobility. Makita's growing line of LXT cordless tool solutions features a wide range of industrial-quality power tools, including driver-drills, impact drivers, impact wrenches, saws, grinders, screwguns, rotary hammers, and more. The LXT Series also offers a jobsite radio, rechargeable flashlights, and several different combo kits.

    5 out of 5 stars Indispensable Workhorse   October 15, 2009
    J. Martinez (Dallas-FortWorth, TX USA)
    Well built all around! Solid feel yet lightweight for an 18V system. Silently delivers torque and speed. The grip and rubberized body ergonomics are just about perfect. These Li-Ion batteries last FOREVER!!! And having a backup driver is almost SINFUL. This combo replaces a 15yr old Makita Ni-Cad system...only because of battery obolesence. Makita has never disappointed and continues to deliver.

    Be advised the charger is a GIGUNDOUS beast (apparently there's a memory chip in the batts that the charger uses to determine optimal usage and charge rates...sucker even has a cooling fan). Consequently the hard case is a bit oversized...but do not let this deter from the performance.

    The LED lights are icing on the cake. Even the belt clips have come in handy...who knew?

    For those that do their homework - Check the specs and you'll see this unit is superior to the competition.
    Nothing but love for Makita!



    3 out of 5 stars both good and bad   September 30, 2009

    Both tools are wonderfully light and compact. But I can't be the only one whose fingers accidentally hit the reverse switch while using the drill. Also, the ring that rotates to choose between drill/driver/hammerdrill modes is hard to turn and requires two hands to use. The drill is less powerful than my Milwaukee 28-volt, but much more pleasant to use because of its light weight.

    The impact driver is disappointing. I had heard so many glowing comments about it, and thought it would be helpful for installing kitchen cabinets, but it usually either stripped the head of the screw or failed to drive it fully. On the other hand, I was able to sometimes drive Tapcon screws into concrete blocks without pre-drilling. I have heard that impact drivers have a steep learning curve, so maybe I simply haven't mastered this tool yet.

    The battery charger makes an annoying high-pitched whine EVEN AFTER the battery is charged.



    5 out of 5 stars Excellent Ergonomics   August 14, 2009

    I have had this tool set for 3 months and it has been a pleasure to use them. I have very small hands and had no previous experience in using impact driver or drill. After trying out many different brand of driver and drills in stores, I chose Makita LXT series because they are light and powerful. Both the driver and drill sit perfectly in my palm, all the buttons are intuitively designed, and the operation is smooth and quiet. The battery took only 15 min or so to charge, and last a very long time. Highly recommended for average household use.


    5 out of 5 stars Almost Perfect!   August 11, 2009

    The drill is powerful and the hammer action is good for cement and brick fastner drilling. My only gripe is the chuck doesn't bite as hard as my Dewalt. The impact fastner is a beast! Light compact and battery last a really long time. I'm a general contractor and have Dewalt and Milwaukee lithium tools to compare. Makita and Dewalt win this round of lithium tools. Tool quality is excellent. The LED light and belt clip are handy.


    5 out of 5 stars GREAT BUY !!!!!!!   April 27, 2009

    As a union metal stud framer, I have found this tool to be extremely convenient and durable. I would recomend this to both construction workers or for around the house. Amazon.com's price was unbeatable!!
