XGT® is a new 40V system with its own tools, batteries and chargers. Its combination of innovative tool design and higher output batteries provide a genuine solution for the highest demands in construction, industry, horticulture and many other areas.
The XGT® batteries deliver a maximum of 40V, i.e. twice as much as the 18V batteries of the industry-leading LXT® platform. This means, that they enable unprecedented independence from stationary power sources.
The XGT® range of tools and batteries come with a built-in program, that provides digital communication between the battery and the tool. The battery technology and the tools' motor engineering work together for optimum performance. The XGT® range of products can easily take on the tasks of now, but they are also ready to adapt to the jobs of the future.
The new XGT® batteries are designed specifically to be highly durable. They feature a waterproof triple-layer structure and a terminal short-circuit prevention structure. Due to their resistance to water and dust, the batteries and tools can be used in harsh conditions.
The batteries are also equipped with a heavy-duty outer casing and cell holder for better shock resistance. Their durable rails hold them securely in place when using the new high power products.
The tough 40V Max design is supported by a fast charging system: the charging time for the 2.5 Ah battery is 28 minutes while the 4.0 Ah battery is fully charged in 45 minutes. The batteries are equipped with a 4-LED fuel gauge indicator making it easy to know when they need to be charged. A charging adaptor enables the charging of both LXT® and XGT® products - almost 300 in total.
The incorporation of innovative tool design, higher output batteries and built-in communication program make XGT® the best high demand system on the market, reinforcing the leadership role Makita has when it comes to innovation and technology. Makita XGT® is a genuine future proof solution!
