[@henryairconcepts2999]

So it's a corded cordless power tool ??

[@finbarrsheehan8304]

The worst of both worlds

[@salazteca1]

😂😂😂

[@f9qo]

They need to have that arrangement on a hedge trimmer to lighten it up and make life easier on your arms. Being able to clip the battery onto your belt would be real helpful.

[@riba2233]

You can do that with the battery cable extender they sell

[@f9qo]

Thanks! I will check it out.

[@f9qo]

I see it being sold, but I have to test if reducing 450 grams makes a difference.

[@hartshorn95]

Makita doesn't make one of those things

[@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL]

Yes they do.

[@OzChippie]

Just spoke to a rep and apparently the sanders are going to be released earlier because of social media reviews. Can only find yours at the moment. Haha, you finally effected a Makita release.

[@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL]

Yes. I am aware. They have just announced them tonight.

[@tomisthomasthetankadventur1526]

Buy direct from Japan. But you’ll have the import tax to pay

[@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL]

No need here. They are available now. And there is no import tax here if items are under $1000

[@CrookedSkew]

Great idea with the cord. Looks and sounds like a Festool ETS EC 150 : )

[@Sjf542]

The Schrodinger’s Cat of power tools: both corded and cordless at the same time.

[@SaerTurner-wn2qh]

KINDA smart for a Precision sander light weight and not off balance with a Battery.......

[@jay851038]

I am thinking the same thing. I have the Dewalt version and the battery adds extra weight on the sander.

[@kc0lif]

keeps tool balanced.

[@georgedavall9449]

Tools And Stuff !!!!!!!!!! Now this is the Makita I knew!

[@danielrosic2960]

How’s the run time? Say, with a 4ah battery?

[@andreibalean]

what can you say about vibrations while you sanding?

[@zaktchek5988]

Il est vraie que un outils sans fil pèse très lourd si le travail se fait en hauteur, en général les outils avec fils sont embêtant car le fil et trop court ou gène. Là on a plus de problème de distance et de prise électrique cependant le fil peux gêner.

[@barttrahan7037]

The question is how much better is the Makita 40 against the Bosch 18. How does it perform against the mirca

[@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL]

You need to watch my full review.

[@MakeWithMike]

What's the point of heaven of battery if the chord still on the way and have to drag it around or side pack itin the way of tool belt idk 🤷‍♂️ even if on sides

[@zacparker8681]

Because it’s still portable power i.e. still doesn’t require a power socket

[@jaival_rhaine]

For comfort, the battery adds weight

[@JDalston]

Keep it compact, can get into tighter spots

[@alextheonewarrior]

If you're sanding in a place that is heavily restricted, you're not gonna use an orbital sander.

[@andreibalean]

Any thoughs about vibrations?

First comments🤟 Makita rules✊ Булатный лайк мой👍

[@decartes666]

Cordles with a cord..

[@nemanja3012]

I think Makita is going a bit backwards lately

[@highlineR32]

Make really sense to buy a Batterie powered tool and then use a cable 😂😂🙈

[@whirled_peas]

It does really. It’s still portable but also light. I don’t get why that isn’t obvious

[@whirled_peas]

The problem of a usual cord don’t apply. Cords you trip on, have to run an extension etc. this one you clip to your belt

[@highlineR32]

@@whirled_peas because I just buy a batterie powered tool, because it has no disturbing cable and you can use it very „free“ and rotate it in all directions

[@antmontey2169]

May as well just buy a corded ac sander .

[@riba2233]

Nope ;)

[@Dave-dh7rt]

How, you put the battery on your belt bro

[@antmontey2169]

@@Dave-dh7rt plug the cord into the power outlet Bro

[@aberba]

You get "portability"...carry it anywhere

[@glrmjfj]

So it's corded.......

[@Dave-dh7rt]

No!

[@whitechris720]

Yes and no

[@glrmjfj]

I can see the point foe heavier tools or tools requiring a lot of batteries but for an orbital sander that's a bit much.

[@whitechris720]

@@glrmjfj I imagine it's to balance the weight on the sanding disk

[@aberba]

Sanders are easier to control when lighter. Easier on the arms too since sanding takes hrs

[@draytonPW]

If it was corded no one would care, so I guess for that reason I understand.

[@KarmeshMadhavi]

Whaaat?

[@GarethHughes-g5w]

This seems a bit of a marketing miss. You have the worst of both worlds: there is a cord to contend with and limited run duration due to it being battery powered. Cordless should equal convenience and mains should be all about unlimited run time, this fails on both and seems an odd choice from an excellent brand that usually gets their designs spot on.

[@Fekillix]

If you want cordless, Bosch GEX. If you want corded, Mirka.

[@shangri-la-la-la]

You can look at it that way or you can look as it not needing a wall plug and not having an extra 3 pounds on the main part of the tool. While I like the 40V grinder and 3/4 Impact the batteries do sometimes make getting into a place akward.

[@MrKlarthums]

The cord is much shorter, so you aren't managing cords around the work area, potentially coming from a far away power source, just yourself. These will probably be niche though.

[@riba2233]

Nah it totally makes sense for this tool.

[@richiejames928]

Really really strange idea… sanders should be connected up to extractors… you have an extraction hose. you have a cord…. This cord goes to a battery… it should just be an AC cord to the extractor. this solves nothing.

[@agentchodybanks9120]

this is only useful for an extremely niche demographic that's walking around sanding walls

[@richiejames928]

@@agentchodybanks9120 it’s just so odd. They have removed the battery from the tool so using the tool for extended periods is easier on the body. which is alll well and good. but having a battery on the end of the cord just doesn’t make any sense. so if you use it with an extractor you just sit the battery on top of your extractor so the cord and hose are out of your way? only for it to keep falling off? 🤣 makita are smoking something lately.

Nah it makes sense, vacuum is easier to deal with than the ac plug, and you have a backpack vacuum option

[@whitechris720]

I have the makita backpack vacuum and run the 18v sander with it. I think this is a good idea so the tool weight is balanced.

[@Fekillix]

"Made in China" and price wise itll probably nut be much cheaper than a Finnish Mirka.

[@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL]

1/4 the price here.

[@riba2233]

What is wrong with made in china? Everything is made there...

[@Fekillix]

@@riba2233 Well. As I said, Mirka makes them in Finland. Festool in Germany. It is disappointing that basically all Makita XGT tools are made in China while many LXT tools are made in the UK, Romania, Japan, US, Germany etc. What would you think if you lost your job to China? I'd rather buy a tool assembled by one of the 500 at the UK plant, one of the 2000 at the Romania plant etc.

[@riba2233]

@@Fekillix 1. I made my own job 2. All parts are from china anyway, and being assembled by underpaid workers in other countries doesn't mean much

[@triedtofail]

​@@riba2233 yes, even those fake toners made with forced labor or very shady working conditions are made there. Hence why trade restrictions are commonplace. You can't generalize either way

[@Troutinwater]

Stolen from HIKOKI

[@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL]

What is?

[@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL]

Hikoki don't make sanders or battery cords anything like this.

[@Troutinwater]

@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL oh yeah true my bro They just hook up to a battery Just Liked every single one of you’re vids ❤️
