- Does it come with a battery and charger?
- Most versions are sold as a bare tool, so battery and charger are separate. Check the listing title for a kit version if you need power included.
- What bits does it take?
- It uses standard 1/4-inch hex impact bits. It is not a drill, so it will not take round-shank drill bits.
- Is it good for furniture assembly?
- Yes, if you use the lower speed settings. The impact action can overdrive small screws, so start slow and test on scrap.
- How does it compare with a 12V impact driver?
- It has more torque and longer runtime but is larger and heavier. A 12V driver is easier for tight cabinets and overhead work.
- Can I use my existing Makita 18V LXT batteries?
- Yes. It runs on the 18V LXT platform, so packs from other LXT tools fit.
- Does it have a work light?
- Yes, a built-in LED illuminates the bit area, which helps in dark spaces.
