Makita 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Compact Brushless Cordless 1/2 in. Driver-Drill Kit w/ (2) Batteries (2.0Ah), Charger, Hard Case

Product Overview

The Makita 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 1/2 in. Driver-Drill (XFD12R) is an ideal drilling and driving solution for the user who wants a drill with superior power-to-weight ratio. The XFD12R combines 530 in lbs. of Max Torque with an efficient brushless motor that delivers up 50% more work per charge, increased power and speed, and longer tool life. For the pro user, this means more drilling and driving power, greater productivity, and fewer trips up and down the scaffolding or ladder to get to the battery charger. In driver mode, the adjustable torque settings provide more control for a full range of applications, from large fasteners to smaller, delicate screws. It weighs only 3.4 lbs. (with 2.0Ah battery) for increased comfort and superior power-to-weight ratio. The kit includes two efficient 18V LXT Compact 2.0Ah batteries, and each reach a full charge in only 25 minutes – the fastest charge-time in the category – for less downtime and increased productivity. 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.
