The 18V LXT lithium-ion brushless 2-piece combo kit (XT288T) delivers two premium brushless tools . The kit includes two fast-charging 18V LXT 5.0Ah batteries, which are compatible with the full range of Makita tools and products. The kit includes an 18V LXT brushless 4-Speed impact driver (XDT16), an impact driver that sets new standards in power and precision. The XDT16 has a full 1,600 in.lbs. of max torque, with four speed settings as well as Makita’s exclusive Quick-Shift Mode for increased fastening control. Quick-Shift Mode uses the brushless motor’s electronic controls to find the best balance of speed and torque for each application for more efficient fastening. Another precision setting is tightening mode (T-mode), which downshifts and reduces rotation and impact speed prior to driving the screw into place, and is engineered to minimize screw thread stripping, screw breakage, and damage to work. The XDT16 delivers industry-leading performance in a compact and ergonomic design.
The 18V LXT brushless variable 2-Speed hammer driver-drill (XPH14) combines power and run-time for more drilling, driving, and fastening tasks in wood, metal, and masonry. It delivers up to 2,100 RPM and a full 1,250 in.lbs. of Max Torque, and weighs only 6.0 lbs. with battery. Both tools feature an efficient Makita-built brushless motor for longer run time, increased power and speed, and longer tool life. Extreme Protection Technology (XPT) provides improved dust and water resistance for operation in harsh conditions. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V LXT System, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V LXT lithium-ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.
For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls. Star Protection is a communication technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT and compact lithium-Ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating star protection inside.
