Makita LXT Cordless 4-Mode Hybrid Driver

18V Lithium-Ion Power for Impact Driver, Hammer Drill, Screw Driving and Drill Modes

Frankly, it is a little hard to believe that Makita could fit all those tools into such a compact package, but they did.  Their new Hybrid technology allows the user to switch modes by simply moving a selector lever conveniently located on top of the motor.

The specs on each mode are nothing short of spectacular, and would be impressive in a single function tool.  Put them together and its hard to imagine needing anything else.  Imagine carrying just one tool to the job with the ability to drill a clearance hole through a pressure-treated floor plate (drill mode), drill a hole in the concrete for a self-tapping concrete screw (hammer-drill mode), then drive the screw home (impact or screw driver mode)!  Leaving three other tools behind will allow room for all sort of additional supplies (and maybe even some refreshments).  The quick change chuck accept any ball detent style 1/4" shank tool.

Makita's 3.0 Ah lithium-ion batteries provide longer run times, discharge more slowly when not in use and provide almost three times the total lifetime power of other battery types.

This Hybrid, 4-Mode drivers comes complete with Makita's Optimum Charger for fast recharges, two 3.0 Ah Li-Ion batteries, and a storage case.
