Nice, I love the teal. Is the Makita logo a sticker?
If you start having trouble with it the caps generally are the culprit, lines and shrinking or rolling picture…but no matter how long it sits, discharge the flyback, it looks like a little distributor and connects to the tube. You can take two long screwdrivers that are decently insulated grips(not insulated shafts), one to the ground on the back of the tube and the other slides under the suction cup cover and touch the screwdrivers. You’ll hear a loud pop, that pop can literally save your life when working on these.
