Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Multi-Surface Scanner with Laser Guide and LED Light for Cutting

The Makita 18V LXT Cordless Multi-Surface Scanner (tool only) quickly locates objects in multiple types of base materials to allow for immediate cutting, drilling, or coring. It is capable of detecting a variety of embedded objects such as metal, wood, plastic, and shielded electrical wire up to 7-inch deep.
Versatile Surface Scanning
Select different modes to scan dry concrete, wet concrete, wood, drywall, and hollow block. The multi-detection mode allows for scanning in up to three parallel surface positions. This helps detect objects running diagonally.
Precision Scanning Display
The large 4-inch illuminated interface displays the center, edge position, and relative width and depth of embedded objects. A laser guide assists with straight travel across the surface and provides the sensor's center position for increased accuracy. An LED light illuminates the scan zone for increased visibility in dark areas.
Built for Tough Sites
The scanner is designed for use in demanding job sites. A rubberized overmold, IP-54 rating, and Extreme Protection Technology (XPT) all provide increased durability. XPT is a protective seal inside the tool that channels water and dust from key internal components to improve a tool’s operation in harsh conditions.
Fast-Charging Power System
It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V LXT System, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.
Smart Power Protection
For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls. Star Protection is a 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 Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.
LXT Cordless Power Redefined
Tool users who unplug the cord with Makita 18V LXT experience new levels of convenience, efficiency, and productivity. Makita created the 18V Lithium-Ion cordless tool category in 2005, and today it is the world’s largest 18V cordless tool line-up. Makita’s 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, Makita 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.
XPT Extreme Protection Technology
When the job takes your Makita tool into harsh conditions, Makita Extreme Protection Technology (XPT) provides added protection. XPT is a series of integrated seals engineered to channel away dust and water for increased durability. Wherever the job takes you, Makita tools equipped with XPT are engineered for increased durability and longer tool life.
