Does the XDT16Z come with a battery and charger?

No. It is a bare tool, so you need a Makita 18V LXT battery and charger, sold separately.

Which batteries does it use?

Any Makita 18V LXT lithium-ion battery, from compact 2.0Ah packs to larger 5.0Ah and beyond.

The XDT16Z adds a fourth speed setting and extra assist modes, plus more torque and a tighter body. The XDT14 remains a solid, cheaper alternative.

Yes. One mode runs in reverse at low speed for bolt loosening, though it is not a substitute for an impact wrench on large fasteners.

Standard 1/4-inch hex shank bits, including quick-change bit holders and socket adapters.

Yes. The wood-screw mode and high torque handle long deck screws well, and the compact body fits between joists.
