Makita, a pioneer in brushless motor technology and battery innovation, combines both in the 18-Volt X2 LXT (36-Volt) Lithium-Ion Brushless Recipro Saw Kit. It’s powered by two 18-Volt Lithium-Ion batteries for 36-Volt power and performance and has an electronically controlled BL Brushless motor that matches torque and RPM to the application. Makita 18-Volt X2 means freedom from the cord, even for demanding applications like cutting and demolition that traditionally called for a corded reciprocal saw. Best of all, users can remain in one battery platform, using the same fast-charging 18-Volt batteries on the XRJ06M as they use across the Makita 18-Volt LXT cordless tool line-up.
- Powerful BL brushless motor delivers 0-3,000 (metal cutting) and 0-2,300 (wood cutting) strokes per minute for faster cutting
- Long 1-1/4 in. stroke length provides increased cutting efficiency
- (2) 18-Volt LXT Lithium-ion batteries deliver the power and performance of a corded recipro saw without leaving the 18-Volt LXT platform (batteries not included)
- Refined crank mechanism design minimizes blade deflection and reduces vibration
- BL brushless motor eliminates carbon brushes, enabling the BL motor to run cooler and more efficiently for longer life
- Efficient BL brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per charge
- Electronically controlled BL brushless motor efficiently uses energy to match torque and RPM to the changing demands of the application
- Large 2-finger variable speed trigger for operator convenience
- Tool-less blade change system allows for faster blade installation and removal for increased productivity
- Electric brake for maximum productivity
- Extreme Protection Technology (XPT) is engineered for improved dust and water resistance for operation in harsh conditions
- Rubberized soft grip handle provides increased comfort on the job
- Built-in LED light with preglow and afterglow illuminate the work area
- Reinforced fixed shoe for added durability
- Retractable tool hook secures the tool when not in use
- Ergonomic design at only 17-3/4 in. L
- Weighs only 10.2 lbs. with battery (battery not included) for reduced operator fatigue
- Equipped with star protection computer controls to protect against overloading, over-discharging and over-heating

The batteries don’t last a good amount of time. You have to charge it every hour.

Awesome Makita product

I was a little hesitant on purchasing this tool, due to concerns with the weight and power capabilities. Neither has been an issue. It cuts great and I have been amazed with the 5.0 batteries! Wow…what a difference from my 1.5s!!! I use these with my impact driver also. Great deal!

This surpassed the first ricipro saw in all classes. I highly recommend this to what ever trade relies on a good ricipro saw.

I love this makita, this has to be hands down the best handheld Recipricating saw I’ve ever owned. My only concern is that this unit looked somewhat used right out of the packaging. If your paying 299$ for a saw make sure it’s new.
