As we creep through the cold, dark mornings and nights of winter, staying warm on the jobsite can be tough. However hard you work, sometimes its tricky just to keep warm.

Feeling cold when you have the whole work day ahead of you is certainly not a lot of fun and it can greatly effect your productivity.

Makita 18V LXT and 12V max CXT Cordless Heated Jackets and Vests are designed to help keep the freezing temps from slowing you down.

At last, Makita have the radio you have all been waiting for!

The Makita DMR115 job site radio is not only a DAB Digital radio but it features bluetooth technology. 

DAB+ is the current standard across much of Europe with the main advantage of being three times more efficient, carries far more radio stations than DAB, and at a far higher audio quality.

From the world's first cordless drill in 1969 to the world's first 18V lithium-ion battery-powered tools in 2005, Makita has been the worldwide leader in cordless power tool innovation. Makita's LXT Cordless System takes you from power tools to outdoor power equipment to get the job done. Utilizing 18V lithium-ion batteries, the LXT battery system works with 225+ cordless products (as of 2020) making it the worlds largest compatible lithium ion system.

Breaking news… Makita are set to release their 4.0ah Li-Ion battery (BL1840). With the likes of Dewalt, Milwaukee and Bosch already having their 4Ah batteries on the market, Makita are the last of the leading manufacturers to join the 4 amp brigade.

Makita power tool owners can now extend the comprehensive warranty to a full three years simply by clicking onto the Makita website and registering the purchase.

Makita Powertools recently launched a range of Multi-Tool machines at their May Trade show.

They are increasingly favoured by installers and fit-out specialists for their very varied blade and accessory options and for the ease of operation in confined spaces.

• Mains powered and Lithium-ion cordless options
• 6,000 to 20,000 oscillations per minute
• Comprehensive range of accessories and compatible with other brands

The Makita 18v Li-ion range has set the industry standard for performance and rugged reliability in the toughest site operations and a complimentary range of equally robust yet more compact-size tools are in demand. These are ideal for such tasks as kitchen and bathroom installations and other projects where access is limited. The exceptional running time provided by these Makita 10.8v tools is longer than similar voltage Ni-Cad or Ni-MH batteries and with a swift 50-minute recharge time these cells provide power and extended operation.
