The 18-Volt LXT Router has an efficient Makita BL brushless motor for up to 50% longer run time, increased power and speed, and longer tool life. The kit includes 2 efficient 18-Volt LXT 5.0 Ah batteries, and each reaches a full charge in only 45 minutes the fastest charge-time in the category for less downtime and increased productivity. The XTR01T7 is engineered for a full range of cabinetry and woodworking applications. It has a variable speed control dial (10,000 30,000) RPM) to match the speed to the application, with electronic speed control to maintain constant speed under load and soft start feature for smoother start-ups and better accuracy. Convenience features include the smooth rack-and-pinion fine depth adjustment system for more precise settings, dual LED lights to illuminate the work surface, and a quick release cam lock system for convenient depth adjustments and base removal/installation. The kit includes a plunge base, and additional bases and attachments are available (sold separately).

Excellent tool one of my favorite planer.the things I love best about the makita planer it’s very balanced and the sound levels low compared to other brands out there which are very loud.

Simply a fantastic tool. Love being able to move the router and not deal with a cord. Highly recommended. Plunge works great as well.

Great little router. More than enough power and easy to handle. Only complaint is the hole in the base on the fixed router portion is too small to accommodate larger bits. Easy fix is to run a bit through it which I did.

this router works flawlessly. Battery lasts for a full day, plus, and charging time is quick enough that you only need the two that are supplied with the kit. In fact, I use the second battery for my Makita hand planner, and both work great.

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.
