As one of the first major tool companies to get lithium ion powered tools to market back in 2005, Makita has developed almost forty tools in their popular LXT line. All of these products are exceptionally powerful and tough, but thanks to lithium ion battery technology, they are some of the smallest and lightest cordless tools around. Makita LXT batteries charge quickly-usually in less than 30 minutes! Not only are they light and powerful, but they also a long lifespan and don't need to be fully discharged before being recharged.
One of the newest additions to the LXT line is the powerful BJV180 Jig Saw. Click "read more" to find out more about May 30th's Tool of the Day!
Makita's new BJV180 Lithium Ion Cordless Jig
Saw combines exceptional power with extraordinarily light weight.
Weighing a mere 6.1lbs, the BJV180 is the lightest and most powerful
cordless jig saw in it's class. It's compatible with Makita LXT 18v
Lithium Ion batteries and chargers.
The
BJV180 features four cut settings-three orbital and one straight for
maximum versatility. The Makita-built motor delivers up to 2600 strokes
per minute for super-quick cutting.
Makita was clearly considering user comfort when designing this saw.
The soft-grip handle is ergonomically shaped to make it comfortable to
grip while reducing fatigue. A built-in LED illuminates the cutting
area so you can clearly see the cutting line, ensuring further
accuracy. The large variable speed switch is easy to operate-even when
wearing gloves. Furthermore, the BJV180 was engineered to keep
vibration and noise to a minimum.
The BVJ180 is a great
example of modern tool engineering. Combining power, efficiency, light
weight, fast charge time (<25 minutes), and some nice user-oriented
features, it's a great saw for professional woodworkers, cabinet
makers, or anyone else that needs a great cordless jig saw.
The BVJ180 Lithium Ion cordless jig saw is available from ToolKing.com and other fine Makita dealers.
