The new cordless Lithium-Ion Makita 18v impact driver offers a new four pole motor that delivers more power than the previous two pole motors. The 3lbs of power in an 18volt tool provides amazing results in all aspects of construction.
Lithium-Ion technology allows this impact driver longer run time, plus it boasts a 30-minute rapid charger, which promises a more efficient tool with less down time for charging. There are also built-in L.E.D. lights to illuminate the workplace for added precision.
This drill will definitely impress its user when this one tool can impact, hammer drill, driver, and drill. The hybrid drives LDT concrete anchors, drives screws with clutch settings, and can drill into wood, metal, and plastic. The Makita 18v impact driver will save you time and effort; it drives screws into wood up to 30% faster than a conventional drill/driver plus no pilot hole is needed even in hardwood.
The Makita 18v impact driver uses Lithium-ion batteries, which feature a high energy density technology delivering 300% more working capacity during the lifetime of the battery when compared to traditional Ni-cad batteries. The batteries themselves are 40% lighter than comparable Ni-MH batteries.
