 Drill's great - The Driver is the hidden secret in the combo July 9, 2008
I knew I wanted the drill from having played around with a friend's. It's outstanding.
I bought the combo based on a few reviews saying how outstanding the driver is.
I must concur. The driver is outstanding.
What the reviewers didn't say was that it has an automatic transmission that grunts it out to low speed/high torque - and the kicker - switches into a hammer-driver mode at slow speeds to realy torque it out.
It will drive deck screws through 2x4's without breaking a sweat - or spinning your bit - and then back them right out again.
I've found battery life acceptable, esp considering the quick recharge and two per kit. They do ship 1.5AH batteries with the kit and 3 AH batteries are available separately. A day-in-day-out construction guy would want at least one 3AH battery. Even a busy handy guy will be quite happy with the batteries shipped
So do get either the 2 or 3 piece combo to get the driver. it'll be your default "power screwdriver" for everything but the gentlest applications.
I have to say I like the flashlight too. Nice, bright, and positionable, I use it more than I figured - having it always in the combo kit bag.
The three piece combo is only maybe $10 more than the two piece combo.
Great Set of Tools June 30, 2008
This is by far the best set of cordless tools I have owned. That includes my DeWalt. The drill and driver are light, they are strong and the battery life is great for a small battery. In the first use of the driver and drill, my wife and I, placed 3/4" flooring in a 14x40 room. We put all the 2.5" floor screws in and never had an issue with the batteries going dead. I got these off Amazon for $199. It is a steal.
Makita LCT200W compact lithium drill/driver set June 20, 2008
So far, they are fantastic. Light, balanced, powerful. Super-fast charging. The bigger battery is available, but so far these have been fine. In a few weeks they will really be put to the test re-decking a deck with 2x6 pressure treated wood. I'll update this then. But so far, Highly recommended.
home run for Makita June 11, 2008
I bought the reconditioned set and have been delighted with the drill and the impact driver. They do the jobs I need done, quickly and without the need to fiddle with things. I love my Bosch pocket driver, but never would have bought it if I'd had the Mak drill at the time. It's a versatile and well-designed tool. If I need a hammer drill or to bore 3" holes, I use a tool made for the job. These are perfect for the other 90% of my tasks.
I used to buy trade tools, but the batteries wore out as fast and I paid a premium in weight and expense that just wasn't warranted. I can't imagine anyone in the trades buying these instead of the LXT versions with the bigger batteries and extra brawn. If I don't need all that juice, I don't want to pay for it or carry it around. Take it out for a test drive and I think you'll agree--Makita got it right.
Terrific product May 21, 2008
The impact driver is a must have for setting screws in difficult conditions. I needed to drive some brass screws and not one of the forty screw heads stripped. The lithium-ion batteries last forever.
