Makita is a leader in brushless motor technology, and the Makita 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Barrel Grip Jig Saw (model XVJ01Z, tool only, battery and charger sold separately) seamlessly combines precision and power with the efficiency of brushless. The XVJ01Z is engineered to deliver the power and performance of a corded jig saw without the hassles of a cord. It is ideal for professional woodworkers, cabinetry makers, specialized residential construction workers and any pro-contractor seeking a best-in-class cordless jig saw. The XVJ01Z features an ergonomically designed barrel grip, which is closer to the work surface for more precise cut. The brushless motor is engineered for efficiency, with a variable speed control dial (800-3,500 SPM) that enables users to match the speed to the application. Added features include 3 orbital settings plus straight cutting for faster and more accurate cuts in a variety of materials. In addition, the efficient BL Brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per charge than similar non-brushless tools. Electronic controls efficiently use battery energy to match the changing demands of the application for increased power and speed when needed. And since there are no carbon brushes, the BL Brushless motor runs cooler and more efficiently for longer life. This Promotion also comes with a bonus BL1850B 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion 5.0 Ah Battery.

Only downside is very loud. Otherwise excellent.

Charged battery and cut a 2 1/2″ pipe perfectly!!
Ida Hoppe (verified owner) –
Great
Alfonso Beer (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.
Carson Murray (verified owner) –
Great batteries. I Highly recommend all Makita products
Vivian Marvin (verified owner) –
Love the power and reliability it provides
Wilbert Gibson (verified owner) –
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
Reece Cummings (verified owner) –
Takes some getting used to some the features, especially the lack of a variable speed trigger, but man this thing cuts
Dena Carter (verified owner) –
Max power
Cleora Johns (verified owner) –
The batteries hold a charge for an extremely long time. No lack of power.
Fredy Schaefer (verified owner) –
Best batteries on the market
Lela Feest (verified owner) –
Doesn’t have a variable speed trigger, rather a dial st the back which is a bit awkward
Rosamond Simonis (verified owner) –
Very nice tool. Good for fine and precise cuts.
Rosalind Mann (verified owner) –
Great tool, i would recommend this to everyone.
Brice Hagenes (verified owner) –
It is great
Jacklyn Wintheiser (verified owner) –
The battery (fuel) gauge is a great upgrade
Destany Predovic (verified owner) –
Couldn’t recommend the 5.0 Ah batteries more. Although they are heavier- suck it up, it builds muscle ;). I love that I can count on the quick charge time and how long each battery lasts. Depending what tool, I can go 2-4 hours on one battery using constantly. I now have three of them and watch for deals. I couldn’t be happier.

Very smooth operation and feels great in the hand. Once you get used to the buttons you don’t miss a trigger.
