The Makita XT297T pairs two brushless 18V LXT tools: the XPH14 ½-inch hammer driver-drill and the XDT20 four-speed impact driver, with two 5.0Ah batteries. The drill leads the LXT lineup with 1,250 in-lbs of torque and a body 14% shorter than its predecessor; the impact driver adds four speed and impact settings plus Assist Mode to stop screw cam-out. It suits tradespeople and serious DIYers who want one battery platform across drilling, driving and light masonry work. Against rival two-tool kits, it stands out on torque and control modes rather than on extras like a third tool or a case.

This Makita 18V LXT combo kit has two brushless cordless tools: a ½-inch hammer driver-drill (XPH14) and a 4-speed impact driver (XDT20). It includes two 18V LXT 5.0Ah batteries, which work with the full range of Makita LXT tools.
The hammer driver-drill delivers up to 1,250 in.lbs. of max torque and 0-31,500 BPM for hammer drilling into masonry. It has a 2-speed transmission (0-550 and 0-2,100 RPM), an all-metal ½-inch self-ratcheting chuck, LED lights and a rubberized soft grip. Its design is 14% shorter than the previous model.
The impact driver has four speed selections. Assist Mode (A-mode) drives at low speed until tightening begins, which helps prevent screw cam-out and cross threading. Two Tightening Modes (T-mode) are for driving self-drilling screws in thick or thin gauge metal.
