Makita New Releases September 2023

[@JBE]

Having used Makita tools for 15 years, I can honestly say I've never had a problem with them.

[@michaelfairchild]

Makita need to finally do a 18V and 40V brushless orbital sander. As for the TD002GZ, does it have same feature as DTD172, where you lock the forward/reverse button in the middle and press the trigger it will keep the light up for how long you like?

[@UKPlanetToolsltd]

Yes it does

[@wally7856]

Absolutely! I had to buy a DeWalt brushless orbital sander and I use an Amazon battery adapter to use my Makita batteries with it. The DeWalt is perfect! My Makita leaves much to be desired. The DeWalt is Brushless for longer run time, much more power (the Makita is anemic at best - low is useless, medium is low and high is barely medium speed), unlike the Makita the pad on the DeWalt actually spins regularly, much larger dust collection port, true variable speed that actually goes high enough. My only complaint using the battery adapter on the DeWalt is it is about 1.5 inches thick so it throws off the balance a bit but still worth it to me. When I'm sanding, I'm sanding 6-8 hours a day. I'm a Makita guy almost all the way but sanders and miter saws I'll take DeWalt over anyone else. I wish Makita would do a re-release of that sander and actually get it right.

I'm surprised you only have 2k followers. I think these videos are really good and enjoyable.

[@UKPlanetToolsltd]

Thanks for your kind words. Glad you enjoyed our videos

How do we get Makita to make a mini fridge with a microwave on top that you can charge 2 XGT and 2 LGT on the side?

[@UKPlanetToolsltd]

I was thinking about the warmer/cooler box but to charge batteries as well? Hmmm

[@shangri-la-la-la]

@@UKPlanetToolsltd This is more for keeping in a shop or garage. But being able to have a mini fridge and microwave that can also charge 2 batteries at a time/ run off said batteries when unplugged would be quite a luring item.

[@pauloyoshizaki2103]

Makita = Tools = Elétrics : Global = World = Makita = Tools = 2024 ~ 2025 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Diablo92Warlock]

Would love to see a Makita variant for a LXT 18V combi impact drill driver with 3 different QuickSnap attachements like Bosch AdvancedImpact18. How is it possible that anyone else has this tool in their offer and Makita still doesn`t?

[@zoltanberkes8559]

AdvancedImpact is a Bosch DIY line product, isn't it?

[@benmorgan9741]

When is the light back in stock

[@Joethetoolguy]

Never thought I’d see the day that harbor freight beats them to getting a cutoff tool. Cmon Makfam

[@nathangardner772]

I’ll probably buy that 3” cutoff tool. What I’d like to see; - 1/2 inch collet router, xgt or 2 xgt whatever is fine with me or lxt. - table saw would have been nice but didn’t want to wait anymore so bought the festool - belt sander - a pin nailer that actually sets the pins - hvlp sprayer I know I’ve thought of more but can’t remember right now I do love makita though, last count I was at 23 lxt batteries and 3 xgt 😊

[@UKPlanetToolsltd]

Let's just casually tag Makita in here @makitauk

[@gordon4075]

Have the 3" cut off it's A awesome little tool. Exceeded my expectations

[@SammyInnit]

They're handy little paperweights.

[@Nicker000]

@7:59 sorry friend but the PDC is NOT a solid-state battery. lithium ion is considered a liquid battery, Solid-State battery are newer, better technology.

[@zoltanberkes8559]

I just wanted to say this too.

[@JamesKooper]

Really high production quality 👌

I still have 4 out of 7 3ah battery, got them in 2007

[@danwaller5312]

Makita, which I have, is getting too expensive compared to the other brands. Milwaukee seems to be moving to the top?

[@mikerosoft1009]

Milwaukee doesn't last though.

[@paulcritchley464]

Back in the daaaay. When I was a young felloooow I used Mikita. Plug in and play. Didn’t have to wait for a charge. Now I use AEG and have plenty of batteries. 6 year warranty on the skins 3 on the battery. Taken heaps back and they dropped some products. They just replace. So there must be a big markup. I would go to Bosch 6 year on the skin and 6 on the battery that’s warranty. Mikita just one year on the battery Cheers have a great day

[@matthewspry4217]

SHATPACK DESIGN why is Makita so far behind tools batteries and packout storage ????

[@juniorbucknor1333]

This is crazy why not make a inverter that use xgt and another version for Lxt this is dumb . It s all about the money

[@army62b]

There are far more LXT Batteries in customers hands. But to use them you need a $700 backpack. You’ll be better off to just get a dedicated inverter and battery with LiFpo batteries

[@Redbeardcarpentryco]

❤ I would love that inverter with the lxt battery pack! I don’t really need it 🤷‍♂️ but what a peace of kit!! 🤙🏻

[@UKPlanetToolsltd]

Haha, we don't blame you to be honest, it's a fantastic bit of kit 😍If you ever do want it, it's available on our website now at 13% off 😉

[@SammyInnit]

You'd be better off to invest in a solar rechargeable setup. I genuinely cannot fathom the point of the inverter; even makitas marketing images show it running a makita battery charger, which is just nonsense and pointless.

[@driverspy1631]

16:57 México?

[@kevinlawes591]

That light looks like a massive pain need a hgv to move it

[@funfrock100]

Its all well and good bringing out these new tools but when the customer support is non existent, theres no way ill be spending my hard earned cash on them. Ive been trying to contact them about something i bought and nothing.

[@2fuzy]

I have never had to deal with makita but I have had to deal with milwaukee and metabo on some purchases that didn't go as expected and they were both great ..dewalt not so much

[@Tooma1979]

Your famous now boyo doing a great job

[@notAdvised23]

So forced to get the $1000 backpack to use the $1000 inverter… nice one makita. Milwaukee stays ahead.

I have an LXT 458 drill that is still going strong on the original batteries after 7 years. The clasps and plastic quality on the box are rubbish though, even looking after it carefully. I have seen some of the later kit and was not impressed.

[@carljoynes921]

I put Makita in 4th place behind the red, yellow, and possibly 5th if taking Hilti into account

[@abusofia6633]

i want your makita shirt sir

[@OnTheGoKRO]

I WANT THE MINI GRINDER WITH A 40v instead wtf. No more 18v

[@gregoryenste8459]

That light is ridiculous. Who has room for a gigantic thing? Many , many better options.

[@UKPlanetToolsltd]

You'd be surprised, there are plenty of massive lights out there! 🤨 This one's perfect for those seriously rough job sites because it's practically unknockable

[@xzibito187]

no nailer but hundreds of grinders, and the overpriced XGT thats not compatible with LTX is a joke. I always liked the quality of makita but the way their going with their products and pricing is forcing me to go elsewhere

[@thefingerwitch]

It pains me to say this… but Makita has done nothing but disappoint me…. I’m tired of defending them- Quality of life doesn’t matter to them.. Hell even Ryobi has a more complete and AVAILABLE platform now…and the “macpack” - late to the party- is trash- those snaps are a nightmare. Flex smoked them - not that red didn’t already as well. All this from a Makita user for 30 years. Won’t be for much longer tho. Take care out there guys…🙏🙏

[@evictioncarpentry2628]

In the same boat. They're not making the tools that matter to trades right now. (Hellllllo nailers for one example) I've slowly been switching to Milwaukee because of it.

[@SammyInnit]

​@@Amber57499I've used one of those. Lasted 2 months before the wheels came off and it started going into holes. Been using milwaukee pack our for 3 years now. Solid and loads better than the Makpac

[@brucebanner3502]

Nice video, but you’re doing yourself, Makita and your customers a huge disservice. You need to learn the difference between ‘O’ which is a letter, and ‘0’= ZERO which is a number. You said “O” for EVERY PRODUCT NUMBER, and it should have been ZERO. The editor should have picked up on this before tithe video was published

[@johnsmith148]

Is this satire?

[@robhayward2655]

Is saying zero a US thing? In the UK is often pronounced O, especially in phone numbers.

[@evictioncarpentry2628]

Makita is slowly losing me. Theyre not coming out with the tools trades people want and need like other companies. My teal tools are slowly turning red.
