It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18-Volt Lithium-Ion system, powered by 18-Volt Lithium-Ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18-Volt Lithium-Ion batteries have fast charge times, 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 18-Volt LXT and Compact Lithium-Ion batteries with the Star Symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside. This Promotion also comes with a bonus 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Jig Saw, (Tool-Only).

Another great precision-engineered quality product from Makita, and best of all — no cord! 🙂

I am a professional contractor and this unit is def underpowered. It just does not have the speed and cutting power needed for denser woods or even 2x material. It also does NOT have the air blower feature for clearing off the dust at the blade…which is a frustration. If you are a homeowner looking for a well priced, battery operated jigsaw than this is a good unit. It is a quality build but it has its limitations. I would def recommend the BRUSHLESS motor versions for much better performance!

I purchased this under a Makita promotion with two batteries. I own two Festool jigsaws one with a top handle and theother a barrel grip. I have been “cutting the cord” as much as possible and wanted an affordable saw and I know Makitamakes excellent tools. This saw actually cuts smoother then my Festool but admittedly does not have all of the features like a zero clearance blade guard and dust collection. Having said that it is hands down the best cordless jigsaw for themoney. I’m sure their brushless version is more powerful but unless use are hogging through eight quarter maple thenI don’t see a need to spend the additional hundred dollars.

This isn’t your Dad’s loud jigsaw.

Perfect weight and balance and performance. Needs a blower to clear the sawdust to complete the package.

I was sorely tempted to splurge and get the Makita brushless jigsaw (currently $269), but grabbed the special offer to get the LXT jigsaw free with purchase of 5.0Ah batteries and charger (currently $199). Cordless saws are Makitas wheelhouse, and this tool lives up to reputation. Feels solid in hand, good ergonomics, consistent power, and easy blade changes. Corded jigsaws are much cheaper, but I am glad I finally went cordless.

Picked this up to replace my old corded Bosch. The conveyance of no cord is great. Been happy with all my Makita 18-Volt tools.
