The 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 2,500 RPM Screwdriver (model XSF05Z, tool only, batteries and charger sold separately) breaks new ground in high demand applications. It’s powered by a Makita brushless motor for longer run time, increased power and speed and longer tool life. With the exclusive Push Drive Technology, the 18-Volt 2,500 RPM Screwdriver can be set on lock-on mode so the motor starts only when the fastener is engaged. This gives contractors a quieter work environment and also saves on battery power. It’s built for added durability with Extreme Protection Technology (XPT), which is engineered for improved dust and water resistance for operation in harsh job site conditions. It is ideal for hanging sheetrock, metal framing, installing subfloors, backer board and decking applications. 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.

Great driver. Came with 2 1/2” long 5/16ths bit holder. Just had to get a 2” long 1/4” driver for Phillips bits. Easy to install. The collar is still for 5/16”. The on off feature sure makes the work site quieter.
