Overview
Makita's XDT11Z is an 18 volt cordless impact driver spinning up to 2900 RPM and weighing 2.5 pounds bare, sold as the tool alone without a battery or charger.
An impact driver adds rotational hammer blows to its driving action, which lets a light tool deliver bursts of extra torque without stalling. That makes it a fastening tool rather than a substitute for a drill when it comes to boring large holes.

Who it's for
Tradespeople and DIYers already on Makita's 18 volt battery platform who drive a lot of screws or fasteners. Not a match for anyone needing a hole-drilling tool, which calls for a drill instead.
Pros and cons
- 2.5 pound bare weight eases overhead or one handed use
- 2900 RPM top speed speeds up repetitive fastening
- Sold bare, without battery or charger
- 1 amp draw suits driving tasks, not heavy drilling
Performance notes
At 2900 RPM the XDT11Z spins quickly for an impact driver, and its rotational hammer mechanism adds torque in short bursts, which helps seat long fasteners without the bit camming out or the motor stalling under load.
