Are Makita Power Tools as goodas they say? |
|
I'm trying to find out if
Makita makes decent power
tools, from what I've read
online even their general
models are strong, and long
lasting. Every review I've
read about them is positive,
does everyone agree? |
 |
Yes. Some tool brands are
better than others in some
respects. But generally
speaking, they are all about
the same as far as quality
goes. I go for features, and
where I can get stuff serviced
IF if does break. I have
mainly Craftsman, some SnapOn,
Freud, Stanley. It really
depends on what tool you're
specifically looking at. Try
checking out
http://www.popularmechanics.co
m They have articles in there
all the time comparing
different tools. |

Do the power toolmanufacturer, Makita, maketools under any other brandname? If so, which one? |
|
I think Skil power tools are
made by Bosch? Less expensive
versions but still good
quality tools... Was hoping to
find out if Makita do the same
kind of thing? |
 |
Yes they do it's called
Maktec, suitable for heavy
DIY/ light trade, tends to be
all the slightly old technolgy
in a red case |

compatible batteries formakita power tools? |
|
i have a makita hammer drill
bhp452 and it takes a bl1830
and 1815 lith ion battery 18v
3000mah. my question is are
there other compatible
batteries available that would
work as well , besides the
makita brand? |
 |
Generally they are a
proprietary pattern (meaning
non-interchangeable). HOWEVER,
we have a franchise in town
called Batteries+Plus that can
rebuild the internals. The
internal cells are all the
same. Last time I was in
there, the guy was supergluing
several cells together to
rebuild something.
In medium to lower priced
tools, the competition is
stiff enough for the tools,
but once you've bought it,
they have no competition in
the replacement batteries. As
much as I hate it, it's often
cheaper to buy a new kit with
two batteries, charger, and a
tool or two than to buy two
replacement batteries from the
mfr. Some companies, Ryobi,
have unbundled the batteries
from the tools and you buy the
tools and batteries
separately, unless you are
getting the 9 piece kit in a
bag. |
