The BL Brushless motor has a maximum torque of 1,200 in.Lbs. in a very small package.
Assist mode (a-mode) helps prevent “screw cam-out” and “cross threading” by driving at a slow speed until the screws start to tighten.
Two speeds (0-1,300/0,300/0-3,000 RPM and (0-1,600/0-3,900 IPM) for a wide range of fastening jobs.
At only 5-5/16″ long, this is a small and easy-to-use design.
With the battery, it only weighs 2.1 pounds.
The Makita 12V max CXT Lithium-Ion Brushless cordless impact driver has a lot of power and speed in a small size that makes it easy to drive and fasten things. It’s easier to balance and work with Makita 12V max CXT Lithium-Ion slide-style batteries because they don’t have pod-style batteries, which have a lot of space. For added convenience, the batteries have a built-in LED charge level indicator that shows how much charge is left. You can get 1,200 in.Lbs. of max torque with the 12V max CXT impact driver. It weighs only 2.10 lbs (with a 2.0Ah battery). If you want to avoid things like “cam-out” and “cross threading,” you can drive at a low speed until the screws start to tighten. The DT04R1 is a good choice for people who want an impact driver that is smaller and lighter. It’s also good for working in small spaces.
A big plus is that it’s small and light. Very impressed: I was able to drive 6 inch screws with ease. New favorite: This is my go-to tool. My first impact driver. I’ve been using my cordless drill to drive screws for a long time. It’s over. Some of the things that will make you less tired and less likely to have broken screws. Like the different ways to drive.
