14.4v/18v & 40v Makita Lantern Radio. A Torch, Phone Charger, Lantern and Radio ALL IN ONE UNIT!

[@quantummotion]

I love the fact that Makita has picked up the idea of expanding to more outdoor/camping gear. I've included their oscillating fan, articulating lantern, and 2USB power converter as part of my kit when I camp for a week. This would complement as a main area light (tent or picnic table) and another USB charge port.

I’m currently listening to this yewtube video while Bluetooth connected to the Aussie DAB 18V Lantern being reviewed!! Thanks for doing what you do!!

[@rhystudordavies]

Had this for a few months now and love it! Was considering another light and a radio, then discovered this. Amazing tool

[@valdius85]

I am very happy that tool exists and I will buy it in the future. Living in Japan this will come in handy one day. Good for Makita for releasing these accessories. Ideally all of my bigger gadgets would run on 40V, just so that I have one battery system for everything. I am also considering the tiny lantern for the smaller batteries - 7V I think.

[@mickromer6199]

Love Makita, love camping and with all these camping gadgets, they need too come up with a solar battery charger kit and a inverter with either 4x lxt or 4x xgt I reckon with 4 batteries you'd nearly have enough juice too run a microwave, especially with an 80v setup in xgt with 4x for run time

[@markthespark6240]

Me too!! I have 2 x Makita 18V Lithium Car Chargers - Model number DC18SE. Wire them up with Anderson plugs instead of cigarette lighter plugs and then will charge 6aH batteries for my chainsaw, lights, radio and other tools without a problem. Just clip a decent solar blanket with MPPT into your car battery.

[@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL]

Don't need it for a microwave as Makita are about to release an XGT microwave.

[@Seaby41]

​@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIALholy jesus.. They did too. I want an 18v toaster over.. Seriously. When's that comin out?

Next Month...

@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL awesome. I'll see if I can pre order

[@khuongathebounga4141]

Love the "TOOLS & STUFF" lighting that you showed in the intro. Looks great

[@philhines]

I reckon they should do a beefed up worksite version that’s louder and brighter. If the price is right I reckon the boys in commercial would take em up!

@Tools & Stuff. Thanks for a thorough and great review of the Makita Lantern Radio. You really covered all the bases. Thanks. Hope you and your family stay safe and well. Cheers.

[@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@treebossmike8818]

Hard to find the Bluetooth version of this here in the States. Acme Tools has the 18v LXT version non Bluetooth available, without the Bluetooth does not seem worth the money.

[@Richard-nb4iv]

I would like to give this a go for the construction site. My makita flood light and radio take up quite abit of toolbox space. This combines two in one plus a usb. Looks like a win to me! 👍

[@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL]

Not really very good for a large site. Not bright enough, not loud enough.

[@Richard-nb4iv]

@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL most jobsites provide some lighting. This will be used for task lighting mainly. I don't really require the radio to be too loud because they are generally not allowed on most commercial sites anyway. I just went to my local supplier and picked it up yesterday and its a pretty cool little unit (18v). 👍

[@mikemorgan5015]

Good deal. These all-in-one multi-function devices have been relegated to cheap Chinese off or no brand junk. Good to see Makita jump in the mix. If only it had a compressor built in....... haha!

[@is5032]

Thanks for the review. I think it’s a shame tool manufacturers are still using USB A. USB C with power delivery standard would surely be the way forward now?

[@nominalvelocity]

For real, at this point they really aught to include an A port and a C port. What's more unbelievable to me is they'd release this lantern radio without Bluetooth in Japan-something you'd think would be a given on any appliance that deals with audio in this age.

[@stephenleepmg113]

I really like the camping light. Thank you for the video.

[@spyker121]

Great little device 3 in 1. Wish to have but shame it's not a bit brighter.

[@markthespark6240]

Great tour of the backyard!! Nice tub!!

[@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL]

I built that!

[@UKTOOLTALK]

Another banger!! Quick question has the lantern got any water proof rating (is it called ip rating?) it always rains when I go camping 😢

[@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL]

It's very open around the top for the speaker so that ruins any chance of an ip rating. I have had it in light drizzle and it was ok, but I wouldn't leave it in the rain.

[@UKTOOLTALK]

Oh cheers mucka bingo 🤟🤟

When will makita come out with new 36v construction tools?

[@wearetheremnants1615]

I've been waiting for olive green stuff to match my impact driver

[@vinceking7878]

I think they could have easily made the sound louder and better. Still looks like a useful tool tbh.

[@regieregie748]

man i’ve been asking makita philippines about this, someone told me it will came by july and now it’s almost december huhu

[@luckyal_syd]

Everybody loves Makita and penguins!

[@williamcruz1735]

Hi, i like your videos do you have videos with the makita powersource i wonder if they have one with the 12v dc port like the other brands have

[@spitNsawdust]

My makita friend 😂 wonder if you can draw a face on the lens with a sharpie?

[@martinsoto793]

Nice introduction

[@cleuma544]

Qual site eu compro ?

[@regieregie748]

hahahaha that rocket on the left it says ASS 😂😂😂😂

[@kc0lif]

40 is different to 18v performance. they have 40 because if you got 40v line almost same devices as 18v.

[@robertrada4783]

XGT UV Gel Manicure light coming up next.

I can't use a camping lantern when I go out to the forest. It makes me a target for sniping.

[@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL]

Then you're camping in the wrong places

[@dreadswizzard9142]

If it's anything like the fans it probably runs at 12v

[@krcarpentry2610]

Mate we need a while light we can’t see shit with the crappy makita yellow light I use most makita kit but the lights are useless

[@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL]

You clearly haven't bought a Makita light for a loooong time.

[@jamallaidley4718]

Cool 😎

[@abelgerli]

Actually they have planned to shut of the old th radio stations here in Germany to release the frequencies. So we at least need Bluetooth or DAB. I thinks this will explain the situation. I didn't expect the penguins 😂😂😎

[@paul--b]

Exactly why I imported the AM/FM (no Bluetooth) model from Australia to NZ. I want AM for camping in the middle of nowhere. Who doesn’t already have a better sounding Bluetooth speaker already anyway?

[@tomthompson7400]

be more use if it charged batteries as well though

[@jpbiscaro8694]

Definitely would be handy in an emergency.

Makita don't understand the Australian market when it comes to radios. Especially in rural and remote Australia. Unlike some other tool manufacturers like Hikoki, Makita does not understand that Australia needs, BT/AM/FM and DAB. Makita always leave off, either DAB or AM. Makita do not include a radio with both AM and DAB. HIKOKI do. Hikoki make a radio with BT/AM/FM and DAB. Makita don't do that. When camping or working in remote locations, AM is still king. An AM signal can be picker up long after FM fades away. DAB is a city broadcasting signal. It does not work in the country. Are you listening Mr Makita ?? It's not that hard. So I won't be buying the Makita Lanten, because I love camping and I need a radio signal that works. That will be AM.

[@xxsome1randomxx315]

It is am and fm…….

[@bourkey07]

Why do you want DAB if you live in rural areas? There isn't any coverage outside of capital cities.

[@CamperKev]

@@bourkey07 I live in the city but travel to the country areas often. I use all three. AM - FM and DAB.

[@philhines]

18:00 …borer??

Would be the biggest Borer ever found.

[@MrDexi87]

Only fm , why not dab?

Because you didn't listen.
