Our take on the Makita 18V LXT Cordless Imp Driver (Bare)

This is a bare-tool Makita 18V LXT impact driver: no battery or charger in the box, so it only makes sense if you already own LXT packs. It is compact at 5-3/8 inches long, a size aimed at tight cabinet and overhead work. At $81.99 at Amazon as of November 3, 2026, it sits at the low end of what bare 18V LXT impact drivers typically cost, though only one store is listing it new.

Pros
  • Short 5-3/8-inch body reaches into tight spots
  • Runs on the wide Makita 18V LXT battery line
  • Bare-tool price keeps the entry cost low
  • Variable-speed trigger with standard 1/4-inch hex quick-change chuck
Cons
  • No battery or charger included, so total cost is higher for newcomers
  • Only 2 ratings so far, and they average 3 out of 5
  • Single new listing at $81.99 limits price comparison
  • Older-generation LXT drivers lack the torque and modes of Makita's newer XGT and 40V tools

Questions and answers

Is this worth it if I don't own Makita batteries?
Probably not. Add an 18V LXT battery and charger and the total climbs well past the $81.99 bare-tool price at Amazon as of November 3, 2026. Compare against a kit before deciding.
What comes in the box?
The bare tool only. No battery, charger or case is included, which is what "bare" means on Makita listings.
Will my Makita 18V LXT batteries fit?
Yes. Any genuine 18V LXT pack fits, from 1.5Ah compact to 5.0Ah and larger. Bigger packs add runtime but make the tool nose-heavy.
How does it compare with newer Makita impact drivers?
Newer LXT and XGT drivers offer more torque, multiple assist modes and better LED lighting. This one is a basic, compact driver at a low bare-tool price.
When is the price likely to be lowest?
Bare tools usually dip during Makita promotions and holiday sales. With one store listing it at $81.99 as of November 3, 2026, watch for bundle deals instead of waiting on a single listing.
