- What tools are in the Makita XT453T kit?
- It includes a hammer driver-drill, an impact driver, a reciprocating saw and a 4-1/2-inch angle grinder, plus two 5.0Ah batteries, a rapid charger and a bag.
- Does it include a circular saw?
- No. The fourth tool is an angle grinder. Shoppers who need a circular saw should look at other LXT combo kits.
- Are the batteries compatible with other Makita tools?
- Yes. The 18V LXT batteries fit the whole LXT line, including many bare tools sold separately.
- Is this kit worth it over buying tools separately?
- For someone who needs all four tools, the kit covers them on one battery platform with two large packs. Buyers who already own LXT batteries may do better with bare tools.
- How does it compare with Makita's smaller combo kits?
- This kit adds brushless motors and 5.0Ah batteries over entry kits with brushed tools and compact packs, so it runs longer and needs less maintenance.
- What is the grinder best used for?
- Grinding and cutting metal, such as rebar, pipe and welds. It is the most specialised tool in the set and the heaviest.
- Where is the Makita XT453T 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 4-Pc. Combo Kit (5.0Ah) cheapest?
- At The Home Depot, for $625.00, as of our latest check.
