Makita, a pioneer in brushless motor technology and battery innovation, combines both in the Makita 18Vx2 36V Cordless Brushless Circular Saw Kit. The brushless circular saw kit is powered by two 18V LXT Lithium-Ion batteries for maximum performance, and has an electronically-controlled BL brushless motor that matches torque and RPM to the application. This circular saw kit also features Makita 18V X2, meaning freedom from the cord, even for demanding applications like cutting sheet and dimensional lumber that traditionally called for a corded saw.

• Powered by 2 LXT batteries; X2 LXT technology delivers more power, speed and run time without hassles of a cord
