Landscapers and contractors are demanding more cordless alternatives to gas powered outdoor power equipment. Makita® is meeting demand with an expanding line of cordless OPE that includes the 36 V (18V X2) LXT® brushless blower. With zero emissions and lower noise, the 18 V X2 (36 V) cordless blower is a welcome solution for clean-up applications. Its powered by (2) 18 V LXT® batteries for maximum power and run time, but without leaving the 18 V battery platform. With the efficient Makita® BL™ brushless motor, the blower delivers longer run time, increased power and speed and longer tool life. Model XBU02PT is a kit and includes the blower, (2) fast charging 18V LXT® Lithium-ion 5 Ah batteries and an efficient 18 V dual port rapid optimum charger. Makita® efficient BL™ brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per battery charge than similar non-brushless tools. Electronic controls efficiently use battery energy to match the changing demands of the application for increased power and speed when needed. With no carbon brushes, the Makita® BL™ brushless motor runs cooler and more efficiently for longer life. When powered by (2) 18 V 5 Ah batteries, the efficient brushless motor delivers up to 28 min of run time on dial setting #3 on a single charge. The XBU02PT features Makita® Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™). XPT™ is a protective seal inside the tool and is engineered for improved operation in harsh conditions by channeling water and dust from key internal components. Its part of Makita® expanding 18 V Lithium-ion system, the worlds largest cordless tool system powered by 18 V Lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita® 18 V Lithium-ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita® created Star Protection Computer Controls™. Star protection is communication technology that allows the star protection equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita® 18 V LXT® and compact Lithium-ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating star protection inside.
