    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 sixteen 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.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great Tools Set for the Price, Needs Better Packaging, December 20, 2008

    Misti H (Yorba Linda, CA United States) - See all my reviews
    This review is from: Makita LXT702 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 7-Piece Combo Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
    I received this product via free shipping, and like the other reviewers, mine was poorly packaged. No box in a box, just the mfr box. Corners were dented, box was torn up, looked like it had been dropped on one end a few times. Inside, I found all the tools, but some of the items had shifted and were scuffed up a bit. Some items were floating around, like the screwdriver bit, and the sawsall bit.

    However, all the tools functioned properly, and I got this set for a good price. These are top quality tools. Even the radio sounds decent, with a aux input for a MP3 player. Would have been nicer if the radio played CD's, but it doesn't.

    For the price, this is a great deal, so just refuse the package if it arrives beat up so you can avoid the return shipping charges and get another one.

    A little unrelated, but when I first found this item it was priced at $494, but when I checked out about two hours later, the unadvertised "sale" on this item... Read more

    This review is from: Makita LXT702 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 7-Piece Combo Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
    Absolutely love the tools!! The shipping problems also appear to be fixed, mine was shipped placed inside of a stronger exterior box with everything intact. I would also agree with previous reviews that I'm not too keen on the duffel bag, it has pockets for two drills, the recip saw, and the charger, most everything else just lays loose in the bag. I did find that if I packed the radio in the bag as well things fit snugly and didn't get banged around too much. A solid case would have been nice but on the other hand most likely would have been extremely large. Quick review of tools -

    Drill - better than awesome
    Driver - Even better than the drill, already survived a drop off the ladder unscathed
    Recip saw - Very strong, yet soft to operate
    Angle Grinder - Like it but rpm seems slow, doesn't back down though and it has a cool overload indicator
    light
    Circular saw - Great for a battery powered saw
    Flashlight - Bright, but would have... Read more

    5.0 out of 5 stars Get rid of the excuses to improve your house..., May 27, 2009
    This review is from: Makita LXT702 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 7-Piece Combo Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
    I wanted to get a good set of cordless tools for about under a year. I figured there are so many little side project around my house, one of my biggest deterents is set up, making sure the extension cord is long enought or sometimes requireing two, finding the right plug; then there is the packing up. In all the time it would take me to set up my work station, I'd talk myself out of doing my side projects.

    I had settled on the Makita combo set or the Milwakee 28V. I hear great things about Milwakee, plus my dad corded Milwakee sawzall has been going strong for over 15 years.

    But, this was the kicker for me in my decision making. I got more tools from this 18V set than I would the Milwakee 28V set. If I needed more power, then I could just get the corded tools which I happen to have. i.e. this hammer drill could not drive a screw through some old wood, I could neither back out the screw or drive it in. So, I brought in my Corded Porter Cable screw gun,... Read more
