Do more with less. The Makita 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Sub-Compact Brushless Cordless Driver-Drill (model XFD11RB) is an ultra-compact drilling and driving solution with significantly less weight. The 18-Volt sub-compact driver-drill is part of a new class of compact, with the size and weight of lower-Voltage tools but with the performance, power and compatibility of 18-Volt. The expansive breadth-of-line of the Makita 18-Volt LXT series means an 18-Volt battery from any LXT tool will power the 18-Volt sub-compact driver-drill. It has an efficient brushless motor with 2 speed settings and dual LED lights to illuminate the work area. At only 6-3/8 in. and 2.8 lbs. (with 2.0Ah battery) it is an ultra-compact drilling and driving solution with superior comfort and handling. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18-Volt lithium-ion system, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18-Volt lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18-Volt lithium-ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.

Great value and quality

Outstanding balance, especially when used with the smaller & lighter 2.0 amp hour battery. Trigger is appropriately sensitive throughout the speed ranges to select the correct speed the operator wants. This feels so good in my hand I do not want to put it down. Also light enough that work overhead is not as taxing as my older Makita drill.
