Makita is the innovation leader in brushless motor technology, and the XT454T 18V LXT Combo Kit provides three BL Brushless Motor solutions for drilling, driving, demolition and cutting – and each one delivers longer run time, increased power and speed, and longer tool life. The XT454T includes a BL Brushless Motor Hammer Driver-Drill that delivers a full 1,250 in.lbs. of torque, a fast-cutting 6-1/2” Circular Saw with 5,000 RPM, and a recipro saw with a refined crank mechanism that delivers faster blade speed and longer stroke length for more efficient cutting. The kit also includes an 18V LXT L.E.D. Flashlight, as well as two fast-charging 18V LXT Lithium-Ion 5.0Ah batteries, Rapid Optimum Charger, and tool bag. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion system, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V 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 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.
