The Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 1/2-Inch Hammer Driver-Drill (model XPH01A) delivers versatility and performance to the jobsite. The XPH01A can be run as a driver-drill or a hammer driver-drill, allowing the user to carry just one tool on the job instead of two, replacing the standard driver-drill. The XPH01A kit includes an automotive charger that plugs into any standard 12V automobile power outlet for increased convenience. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion series, the world’s largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style battery. 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. Makita-Built Motor Engineered for Versatile Power The XPH01 features a Makita-built four-pole motor that delivers 480 in.lbs. of Max Torque in a compact size. The versatile XPH01 shifts from "hammer drill" to "driver" mode, and the two-speed all-metal transmission delivers 0-400 RPM in low speed and 0-1,500 RPM in high to cover a wide range of drilling and driving applications. With 0-6,000 Blows Per Minute (BPM) in low and 0-22,500 BPM in high, the XPH01 is ideal for drilling into masonry and concrete. Ergonomic Design in a Compact Size The XPH01 weighs only 4.0 pounds (with battery) with a more compact design at only 8-1/8 inches long and an ergonomic shape that fits like a glove for reduced operator fatigue. The XPH01 Is also equipped with a built in LED light with afterglow function that illuminates the work area for more efficient work.
