Best praise vs top criticism for Makita 40V max XGT Brushless 4-Speed Impact Driver (GDT01Z)
“I wish it were that simple! Adapters work great for 18V-to-18V swaps. But the specific 150mm sander I am looking at is the **Makita 40V XGT**. Unfortunately, physics is a harsh mistress: there is no compact adapter that can magically turn a DeWalt 20V battery into a Makita 40V power source. And fitting a 60V FlexVolt onto a Makita tool is a Frankenstein project I am not ready for! 😄”
