  • Our take on the Makita 18V LXT Driver-Drill

    The Makita 18V LXT Driver-Drill is a compact cordless drill with a 1/2-inch keyless ratcheting chuck and two speed ranges, 0-600 and 0-1,900 RPM, with 480 in-lb of torque. It weighs about 4 lbs with a 5.0Ah battery, so it is light enough for overhead work and long sessions. It is a bare tool in most listings, so buyers already on Makita's 18V LXT battery platform get the most value. Against brushless premium drills it is simpler and cheaper to own, but it lacks the electronic clutch and newer motor of Makita's higher lines.

    Questions and answers

    Does it come with a battery and charger?
    Most listings are the bare tool only. Check the box contents before buying, and budget for an 18V LXT battery and charger if you do not already own them.
    Is it a hammer drill?
    No. It is a drill and driver only, so it will not drill masonry. Makita sells separate hammer-drill models on the same battery platform.
    What size bits does the chuck take?
    The 1/2-inch keyless chuck takes round and hex shank bits up to 1/2 inch, which covers most drill and driver bits.
    How does it compare with Makita's brushless drills?
    This model is simpler and lighter on features, with a brushed motor and a basic clutch. Brushless models add more torque, longer runtime and a smoother clutch.
    Can it drive screws into hardwood?
    Yes, at low speed with the clutch set. With 480 in-lb of torque it handles deck screws and lag bolts in softwood, but pre-drill in dense hardwood.
    What is the difference between the two speed ranges?
    Low, 0-600 RPM, gives more control for driving screws and large holes. High, 0-1,900 RPM, is for fast drilling of small holes.
    Where is the Makita 18V LXT Driver-Drill cheapest?
    At The Home Depot, for $124.00, as of our latest check.
    Where can I buy the Makita 18V LXT Driver-Drill?
    2 stores we checked sell it, including The Home Depot, Msc Industrial Supply.
