About Makita's 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Tool Series
As one of the pioneers driving the cordless tool revolution, Makita changed the game with its breakthrough 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Series. Three years after its debut, Makita's LXT Series has grown from seven to over 35 tools, providing a wide range of cordless solutions for professional tradesmen. Makita also added 18V Compact Lithium-Ion for cordless power in a more compact size. Makita's 18V Lithium-Ion batteries and ENERGY STAR rated Optimum Charging System provide several benefits over old battery technology. When compared to traditional 18V Ni-Cd batteries, Makita's 18V Lithium-Ion batteries have 40% less weight, longer run time, and five-times lower self-discharge to keep cells active and ready to use at any time.

Makita's 18V Lithium-Ion battery delivers 2,000 cycles--2.5X more than Ni-Cd. In addition, built-in shock absorbing features help protect the battery, and sixteen firm-holding contact terminals deliver constant high power. During the charging process, a built-in memory chip in the battery communicates with the Optimum Charger for a more efficient charge, extending the battery life. Makita's Optimum Charger is also faster: it will charge an 18V LXT Lithium-Ion battery in just 30 minutes, and an 18V Compact Lithium-Ion battery in only 15 minutes. Makita also offers a Rapid Automotive Charger for 18V LXT and 18V Compact Lithium-Ion batteries that plugs into 12V DC sockets equipped in most automobiles and trucks for added mobility.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT drill!, July 28, 2009

This review is from: Makita BDF452 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 1/2-Inch Driver-Drill Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
I have this kit along with the Makita BDF452HW kit and love them both to pieces. Both are solid performers in every sense of the word and are very light as well. I have worked the crap out of both of them and they just keep asking for more. You simply cannot go wrong with either of these drills.

That being said the only difference between this kit (BDF452) and the BDF452HW is the color(white vs blue), the plastic grip around the chuck, and the batteries. The BDF452HW includes 1.5 ampere hour batteries, where this kit includes the 3.0ah batteries, offering twice the runtime. If you can deal with a shorter, but still surprisingly good, runtime, you can save about $100 and go with the BDF452HW.

Either way, expect a great tool that should last for many years to come.

(PS- There were those who had battery issues, but apparently Makita has worked them out, as I have 8 Makita LiOn power tools for over a year and have had no issues whatsoever with...Read more

This review is from: Makita BDF452 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 1/2-Inch Driver-Drill Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
Makita has a reputation of building some of the best power tools. This driver/drill won't disappoint. The torque is impressive. The tool is very well balanced to allow you to apply massive amounts of torque very accurately. It's even easy to use left-handed in tight spaces.

The over-torque clutch adjustment works great, and provides a non-clutched "drill" mode. It's surprising how much faster you can work when you don't have to think about sinking your screw heads too deep.

The nifty LED light on the front is a nice touch (no more chewing on a mini maglite in dark spaces). It turns on automatically during use, and slowly fades out a few seconds after you've stopped the drill.

I just finished a project that required about 150 3-inch deck screws. I pre-drilled every top board, and drove the screws into the bottom board (with the help of a Bosch Clic Change adapter--highly recommended), and the drill performed perfectly. The battery life is...Read more

This review is from: Makita BDF452 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 1/2-Inch Driver-Drill Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
I have been using this drill for a while now and am extremely impressed! The feel, functionality, power, and battery life is far superior to all of the drills I have used. The battery seems to last for a very long time and charges quickly. The drill has an excellent ratcheting chuck and grips the bits well with no slippage. It is very powerful but compact to fit in tight spaces. I believe I have found the finest drill on the market, it is the Makita BDF452!
