The kit
includes an ultra-compact 2-speed brushless driver-drill with two speed
settings that weighs only 2.8 lbs., and a variable speed brushless
impact driver with two speed settings that weighs only 2.6 lbs. For more
efficient fastening, the impact driver features Assist Mode (A-mode)
which helps eliminate “screw cam-out” and "cross threading" by driving
at low speed until tightening begins. The kit includes two 18V LXT®
Compact 2.0Ah batteries, and each reach a full charge in only 25 minutes
on the efficient Rapid Optimum Charger – the fastest charge-time in the
category – for less downtime and increased productivity. For added
convenience, the batteries feature an integrated L.E.D. battery charge
level indicator.
It’s part
of Makita’s expanding 18V LXT® system, the world’s largest cordless tool
system powered by 18V Lithium-Ion batteries. Makita 18V LXT® batteries
have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more
time working and less time sitting on the charger.
For
improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created
Star Protection Computer Controls™. Star Protection is communication
technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to
exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect
against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. For increased
versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT® and Compact
Lithium-Ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating
Star Protection inside.
