- Is the Makita GT400M1D1 worth it over an 18V kit?
- If you drill hard materials or drive long fasteners daily, the 40V XGT tools give more power and runtime than 18V LXT. For light home jobs, an 18V kit is smaller and lighter.
- Do the batteries fit other Makita tools?
- The 40V XGT batteries fit Makita's 40V Max XGT tools only. They do not work in 18V LXT tools without an adapter, and Makita does not recommend mixing platforms.
- What is the difference between the two included batteries?
- The 2.5Ah pack is lighter for quick jobs and overhead work. The 4.0Ah pack holds more charge for longer drilling and driving sessions.
- Does the kit include a charger?
- The listed contents name the two batteries but not a charger. Confirm the charger and case are in the box before buying.
- Can the impact driver be used for drilling?
- The impact driver is for driving screws and bolts. Use the drill driver for holes in wood, metal and masonry.
- How heavy is the kit?
- The kit is listed at about 33 lb, so it is best moved in a case or bag rather than carried by hand for long distances.
