The Makita 18V LXT Sub-Compact Brushless Impact Driver is a short, light driver built for tight spaces and overhead work. It runs on Makita's 18V LXT batteries and uses a brushless motor, so it trades some peak torque for a compact body that fits where full-size drivers won't. The set adds a 60-piece bit and fastener assortment, which makes it a starter kit rather than a bare tool. Compared with full-size 18V impact drivers it is easier to handle but slower on heavy lag screws; compared with 12V sub-compacts it has more power and shares batteries with the rest of the LXT line.
