Makita, a pioneer in brushless motor technology and battery innovation, combines both in the 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless Recipro Saw Kit. It has an electronically-controlled BL Brushless motor that matches torque and RPM to the application and is powered by the industry’s fastest charging 18-Volt lithium-ion batteries. With Makita, users can remain in one battery platform, using the same fast-charging 18-Volt batteries on the XRJ05T as they use across the Makita 18-Volt LXT cordless tool line-up. The XRJ05T is equipped with efficiency features for faster cutting. The long 1-1/4 in. stroke length increases cutting efficiency and the refined crank mechanism design minimizes blade deflection and reduces vibration. Convenience features include an LED light to illuminate the line of cut, a retractable tool hook and “tool-less” blade change for faster blade installation and removal. 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. This Promotion also comes with a bonus BL1850B 18V LXT Lithium-Ion 5.0Ah Battery.

Time will tell. I haven’t had it long enough to see how long it lasts. But it seems to have a lot of power
Brad Boyle (verified owner) –
Does the job!
Vanessa Leannon (verified owner) –
The battery so far has meet my expectations
Scot Lemke (verified owner) –
Last much longer than the 3.0. A bit pricey though
Aurore Considine (verified owner) –
Batteries last longer than the ridgid, dewalt, and milwaukee.

After the $150 sticker shock for this battery subsided, I have been completely satisfied with its longevity while using it to drive deck screws. Lasted a solid 6 hours with continuous use and the charger had it ready to go again in roughly 30 minutes.Highly recommend!
Werner Becker (verified owner) –
They seem to be lasting longer then the 3.0 I have. Not happy with the charging time, it states it’s a quick charger, but takes an hour to recharge the batteries.
Shyann Jakubowski (verified owner) –
Great product that holds a charge for a long time. Provides power when needed for big projects without having to worry about stopping for a charge or swap out batteries. I like the battery charge remaining lights so I know how much work I still can get from it.

Great battery performance outstanding
Merritt Grimes (verified owner) –
It has so much power and last so long, of course it is new. But my son has Makita and they have worked good for him for a long time, that’s why I switched to Makita.
Parker Mayert (verified owner) –
These batteries are incredibly long lasting. I often go several consecutive days on a single 5.0AH battery charge.
