8' 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Concrete Vibrator Kit (5.0Ah)

The 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 8′ Concrete Vibrator Kit (model XRV02T) delivers more run time with maximum vibrations per minute (VPM) for strengthening concrete when running a corded tool is not an option. The XRV02T weighs only 11.4 lbs. with battery, with high vibration and ergonomic features for top performance. The Makita-built motor delivers 12,500 VPM and up to 41 minutes run time under load using a fully-charged 18V LXT 5.0Ah battery. The 8′ shaft is 1" thick for more effective leveling and removal of air bubbles in concrete.

It′s part of Makita′s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion system, the world′s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V 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 18V LXT and Compact Lithium-Ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.

Tool users who unplug the cord with 18V LXT experience new levels of convenience, efficiency and productivity. Created the 18V Lithium-Ion cordless tool category in 2005, and today it is the world′s largest 18V cordless tool line-up. leading technology gives tool users unmatched performance and breadth of line, with innovation in motor and battery technology that is obliterating industry standards - and leaving old thinking behind. With high amp-hour batteries, efficient brushed and brushless motors, and 36V (18V X2) LXT technology, 18V LXT tools not only meet corded demands, they can exceed the performance of corded, all while remaining in a single cordless platform powered by the industry′s fastest-charging 18V lithium-ion batteries.

Cordless tools are engineered for industrial applications, and for added protection during the most demanding jobs Created STAR Protection Computer Controls. STAR is communications technology that monitors conditions during use, allowing the tool and battery to exchange data to protect against overloading, overdischarging and overheating. If STAR detects conditions that threaten to overload, overdischarge or overheat the tool or battery, the tool will automatically stop. At that time the user can either restart the tool, change or charge the battery, and put the tool back to work. When you slide a 18V LXT battery with the STAR symbol onto a tool that has either the STAR symbol or a yellow terminal, you are benefitting from STAR Protection Computer Controls.
