Overview
An 18V compact drill driver from Makita, sold as a bare tool. At 2.6 pounds and a 1900 RPM no-load speed, it fits Makita's LXT battery platform for general drilling and driving tasks.
The Z at the end of Makita's model naming marks this as a bare tool, sold without a battery or charger, which lines up with the light 2.6 pound listed weight for the drill body on its own.

Who it's for

Pros and cons
- Bare tool (Z) costs less for existing 18V owners
- Light at 2.6 pounds for extended one-handed use
- 1900 RPM suits general drilling and driving tasks
- No battery or charger included in this listing
