I am posting a photo of a cordless Makita Hammer Drill Kit for $49.95. I don’t have anything cordless that is Makita, so I was looking to get an opinion of it.
Thanks,

I wish I could get Makita deals like that where I live. Worth it just for the battery!
Just the basic entry level brushed hammer, makita are usually solid tools even their brushed models, the battery may not have a fuel guard but shit go get another 18v drill for 50 bucks

Seems like a great deal… You won’t go wrong with an 18v Makita. The brushed models have a 4-pole motor so they’re very capable. If you are a regular user it’ll do you fine… Heavy users benefit from brushless, but most won’t notice the difference.
I just picked up an 18v LXT Hammer Brushed Drill and it takes anything I can throw at it… Plus the 3ah batteries genuinely charge in 20 minutes.
Thanks for the replies. I don’t currently have anything Makita, however, I am usually not one to pass up a deal.

Exactly, that way it’s free!
why not buy many and ebay the extras that way it’ll be like they payed you take take the drill off their hands.
Yeah, buying a case actually wouldn’t be a bad investment! Getting into Makita is intriguing, as they have so much so in their 18v series…. even a coffee maker!

That’s too bad it would be more efficient with brushes. Faster heat build up.

Quite funny. I can’t speak on that, however, I think it will do three 5oz cups of coffee on one 5.0 battery lol.

Correct. It better be high in caffeine for that little amount!
3 ounces per amp hour.
