Makita DRT50ZX4 18v LXT Brushless Cordless Router Laminate Trimmer Body Only in Carton with Trimmer Guide Introducing Makita's first Cordless Brushless Laminate Trimmer, DRT50, featuring the same style base form factor as the electric compact router, RT0701C. The DRT50 18v LXT Router has an efficient Makita Brushless Motor for up to 50% longer run time, increased power and speed, and longer tool life. It's engineered for a full range of cabinetry and woodworking applications with a variable speed control dial (10,000 – 30,000) RPM) to match the speed to the application, electronic speed control to maintain constant speed under load and soft start feature for smoother start-ups and better accuracy. Convenience features include the smooth fine depth adjustment system for more precise settings, dual L.E.D. lights to illuminate the work surface, and a quick release cam lock system for convenient depth adjustments and base removal/installation. Additional bases and attachments are available (sold separately). For users of corded Makita Compact Routers (models RT0700C, RT0701C), the bases used with these corded routers are fully compatible with the DRT50. In addition, the DRT50 easily connects to Makita vacuum cleaners with the dust nozzle for improved dust extraction.

Best cordless router for the price. I have a Milwaukee 18v Fuel and it is no better than this Makita. The Makita runs smoother. It is amazing what a man can do with such a small and powerful router. I have read concerns that the bit depth adjustment is not accurate - but it is not true. The only concern is that the base it comes is very small in diameter and the router tips over when working on a side profile. I put a larger wooden base - and now it is fine

Very chuffed both with this product and with powertoolworld. Powertoolworld have very competitive prices and quick turn around on deliveries. The Makita entry level cordless router is great for DIY useage. With a homemade jig, makes excellent dadoes...just be careful to stop using it when the battery is going. Major loss in power. Great that it comes with some nice extras to help you get a straight line. Good job Makita and ptw!
