    18v/36v for me as I don’t do any heavy duty stuff. Makita has always been an excellent tool and would thrive if the did more brand hype to get more people to notice them. Their daring nature to make innovative and some odd cordless tools gets respect from me. I remember when I worked at a Post Tool store and saw the Makita cordless miter saw...jaw dropping for its time(20+ years ago). Great video.

    Glad to see more US reviewers getting these 40v drills. Recently ditched my gen 3 hammerdrill in anticipation of this makita 40v drill. Cutting back on team red and bringing in some more team teal. Team red, if you are listening, the electronic clutch on this drill is innovation. Not the tiny tweaks many Milwaukee tools get and then call it innovation.
    I’ll be continuing in makita 18v 18v x2 and 40v, maybe even the 40v x2 when they start releasing tools.

    I'm a die hard milwaukee guy, but makita made the right choice with this new 40v line. Call it crazy to slap a bunch of batteries on a tool, but one battery to power most things from the basic hobbyist tool to the higher construction and trade purpose tool is genius. I'm way more excited about makita in the future than I am about flex. And Vince doing all the tinkering with these tools really helps portray what these new 40v tools offer. Great video here!

    • @Jaballer77
      @Jaballer77 Před 2 lety

      @@engjds Then why don't you save money and go with the Milwaukee 4V line? Voltage is electromotive force. The higher the voltage the higher the force. Higher number means it's better. Obviously there are more things to consider than just voltage, but for bigger jobs more voltage is better. Of course the same 90Wh battery will last half as long, but it will do the same amount of work in half the time.

      @@Jaballer77 No battery pack is 4v, do you mean the mx line of batteries for smashing concrete and such? they don't have normal tools for the DIY or semi-pro.
      Voltage does not mean higher the force, force is a function of power which is I*V, now Milwaukee parallels batteries to double Current(I), so for instance you could have a cell pack at 36V with cells in series and the same number of cells this time in parallel @ 18v but this time double the current(I) resulting in SAME power for equivalent battery size.
      It is a complete fallacy to say higher voltage means more power, Milwaukee has thick motor windings to carry more current at lower voltages, and Force is proportional to Amperes times by Motor Turns.
      Higher voltage families use thinner motor wires and more turns. Milwaukee is clever, since using thick wire of a few turns is much lighter armature than say a Dewalt using lots of turns at low current-high voltage.
      These tools motors run at very high speed-so inertia plays a big part in output torque/power-this high speed is reduced via a planetary gearbox.
      Now the MX line uses both high current and high voltage (Parallel and series combinations in very large battery packs to push that power that bit further, this is not like the fake marketing twaddle of dewalt and makita who have equivalent power batteries using more voltage BUT less current-they would only be able to push more power beyond Milwaukee by having bigger battery packs, which they dont.
      I hope that makes sense, electronics is my specialism.
      Milwaukee generally has stronger motors and I cannot see that changing until a new battery technology comes along.

      Not trying to be negative here or to tell anyone how to work, but what's with the obsession of using impact drivers for fastening? They're just battery versions of manual impact screwdrivers, which are for breaking stuck screws/bolts loose.

    • @paulnorman8274
      @paulnorman8274 Před 2 lety

      @@Turgz You can use a smaller, shorter and lighter tool for the same sized fastener. And do so one handed with less need for bracing. For finer work with smaller fasteners, decent powered modern ones don't start impacting until you're done. Makitas have a mode where they then stop.
      Also, your drill may have a bit for tapping. Changing it back and forth for a driver bit, gets old fast. If you have to move a ladder for every few screws, doing all your tapping first also sucks. So you need a tapping tool and a fastening one. Given this: Having two of the exact same tool, even if it technically would work just fine, instead of two different ones, just feels a bit wasteful.
      In practice, cordless impacts are general purpose _Drivers_, just as much as they are _Impact_drivers_. Manual ones, really aren't to nearly the same degree.

    • @Jaballer77
      @Jaballer77 Před 2 lety +1

      @@Turgz Impacts are the only thing I use unless I'm drilling a hole, even then I still prefer an impact. Driving fasteners with a drill is for amateurs. The torque is sent to the fastener instead of your hand or wrist. Drills strip out the heads of screws because they slip as soon as you encounter resistance. If you're not using an impact to drive fasteners, you're doing it wrong.
      If you don't have a good feel for how to do it, use the assist modes so you don't break off the screws. Impacts won't spin as long as you have your tool in a straight line with the fastener (not at an angle). You'll be angry at yourself for not getting an impact years ago.

    I'm here now for a bit more info before pulling the trigger on some 40v stuff today. Marita has some great deals on some 40v stuff this month so it's hard not to take advantage of these 40v tools being priced at or below 18v tool prices.
    (Rear handle 40v saw with 2 batteries, charger, bag for 200 bucks)

    Thanks for actually knowing the brand. First review to actually say that the gxt was a new platform. That the gxt impact and drill were just to allow one to stay with in one platform of battery. If the rumors are true and some of the 36v tools that I use make it to the gxt line then it makes sense to switch battery platforms, and who doesn't use an impact? I just wish that they had a cordless table saw. I have had a cordless job sit since 2011 ish. Started with flexvolt and switched to lxt36 as soon as the tools came out. The lxt line has different levels of tools and the level is reflected in the price of the tool. If the gxt line follows what the lxt line did then I have two to three years to see where the gxt 40v line will go. If I don't like the gxt line up then I will just stay with the lxt 18/36. Three tools that I would get the day they came out are, tablesaw, thickness wood planer and a compressor.

    I am sticking with my 18V and 36V X2 until they die. Being Makita, this will take years! Good to know Makita won't abandon their 18V line, for many uses that is all that is needed. The thing that does interest me is the XGT X2 series for 72 volts--chainsaws, mowers and a return of the Makita electric bike? Yeah, my only complaint is the bogus "max" BS for batteries... Et tu Makita?

    its a split system vince. just like you use both m12 and m18 depending on the tool and specfic task requirement as needed. so the real questiion is which specific high power tools does the 40v or 80v makita beat the awesome flex 20v... maybe a mitre saw? angle grinder? metal cutter? sds rotary hammer? and suchlike

    If I get anything Makita it'll be the 40V. I have lots of ways I can go to build my 18V lines (have some DeWalt, Ridgid, HPT 18V, Ryobi & Craftsman) but if I want to cut Yx4 material I could get some 10.25" saw action, which I can't on the 18V lines. It just offers some things I don't already have.

    hey Vince, solid video brother.....one important thing to mention about the 40v hammer drill is that the clutch is electronic and automatically stops the drill instantly without any ratcheting noise and clicking and jerking like when a conventional clutch kicks in...plus it doesn't make that annoying ratcheting noise so it is much quieter....also, the 21 selections for the automatic clutch are very precise.....you will be amazed at how consistent the depth setting of fasteners is.....you should do a video testing different styles and sizes of fasteners in different materials like osb, plywood, 2x4, sheet metal etc......it is insanely consistent and a TOTALLY UNIQUE FEATURE THAT WILL SAVE TIME AND MAKE YOUR FASTENING MUCH MORE CONSISTENT FOR BETTER CRAFTSMANSHIP.....I THINK YOUR SUBSCRIBERS WOULD REALLY LIKE TO SEE A VIDEO LIKE THIS.....NO OTHER TOOL CAN DO IT......CHEERS FROM CANADA

  • @andrewholland21
    @andrewholland21 Před 3 lety +3

    Probably both. There’s certain tools that I definitely could see me needing more power for but my 18v impact, blowers, drill, even circular saws get the job done plenty fast and haven’t encountered something they couldn’t get through. I also struggle with the weight of my 18v 5ah battery when hanging drywall or even installing metal roofing. So the added weight of the 40v wouldn’t do me much good.

    • @Jaballer77
      @Jaballer77 Před 2 lety

      Is there added weight with the 40V? I didn't catch it in the video. With the electronic clutch on the drill there are less parts so I'd imagine it would be lighter than the 18V, but if it's got heavier duty parts then it might more than make up for having less parts. I'd be interested to see the weight of all the tools.

    • @ecii437
      @ecii437 Před 2 lety

      I just did the same thing. In January I decided to consolidate cordless tool brands from an assortment of Milwaukee and Ridgid tools to Makita 18/36v LXT tools. I looked at the 40v XGT line but there weren’t any 40v tools that I needed that had extra performance or features that mattered to me, and the LXT line had more of the tools I wanted. I bought the AWS track saw, jig saw, multi tool, handheld blower, outdoor extension pole saw, 36v leaf vac/blower, articulating pole hedge trimmer and others I can’t think of. Then came time for the AWS dust collector and AWS miter saw. I was not excited about the LXT miter saw’s laser and the vacuum options were too much $$$ for the performance. Why didn’t they add AWS to their LXT vac that also worked from corded power?! Anyway, I’ve really been happy with the LXT line so I went ahead and bought the XGT miter saw. They have a new XGT dust collector that is much more powerful than the LXT…but the LXT already cost an arm while the XGT will take the arm and a leg! My only real gripe is that an 18v battery, with maybe 3 charges in its life, died yesterday. Now I get to test their customer service.
