Years in the demo business, The saw we would have used in the many hospitals, or military facilities, also in Robinson decking high rises, maybe for completing corners after wall sawing….also zoos and seaworld or people nearby areas, otherwise using electric or hydraulic flat-saws for production would be the way to go…but they do have their specialty uses..Great to see these getting more powerful.
batteries are heavy whats the weight comparison to the gas powered one? They should have had the makita guy use the makita saw, he made the stihl stop several times during his cut...
I love the new Makita XGT line. I’m really excited about their new battery platform and just how they are designed and put together. Way better than the other companies. Makita and Hilti have really got that figured out. I just wish they would release the tools over here in 🇺🇸 as fast as they release them in 🇳🇿 and 🇯🇵 It definitely looked like that breaker had good vibrations going on. Just be careful where you put it. LOL 😂
HELLO VCG 👋 I'm leaning on the 40 volt platform. I am thinking that I will mostly likely adopt it. As an Install and remodeling business, I think the new 40 volt system sure looks appealing if the price point it there and availability it there.
@@VCGConstruction Very True Also Makita's battery technology really needed an upgrade, So I think the 40 volt is a very good move for Makita. There is an 8amp 40volt battery in Japan currently available. Hopefully are market will see that battery with in a years or so.
I absolutely love my Makita XGT tools. The only draw back is that they come out in Japan 🇯🇵 and New Zealand 🇳🇿 long before us 🇺🇸 unfortunately. I don’t see the reason for that. They would sell just as much if not tons and tons more here 🇺🇸 but yeah, the new battery technology even the way they’re made is very innovative. I’m really excited about this new line.
@@skolsaw1080 Absolutely 💯 For some reason most of the world gets new Makita, Bosch, and German Metabo about a year before the US market and it some cases not at all. Are US market is huge. I really do not understand why we get new items last.
I am interested. Was going to grab a makita gas one, I dont use a demo saw much but this thing has me looking. I'm a milwaukee guy but I might pick up the 40v stuff for this stuff
now how about when the batteries are 6 months old.. my 36v makita lawnmower was about 1/4 the power of a 20 year old petrol mower and would keep shutting off.
I might have to get their 10 1/4" xgt circ saw and the 10" xgt miter saw but that cutoff saw only running 15' on a 4" deep cut is pretty underwhelming. Wasn't really a fair head to head because the cordless was only around 1-1 1/2" deep max for the cut when the gas guy was running 2-2 1/2" deep. Still appreciate the info, thanks man.
Milwaukee mx fuel is a 80v max and 72v nominal system with 25 amp discharge so there average watts would be about 1800 watts. They got a 3 ah 216 wh battery pack with 20 18650 cells and a 6 ah 432 wh pack with 40 18650 cells. As for makita there xgt batters are 40v max and 36v nominal I don't know what there discharge amps are though they have a 2 ah 72wh with 10 18650 cells a 2.5 ah 90wh with 10 18650 cells a 4 ah 144wh with 10 21700 cells and a 5 ah 180wh with 20 18560 cells there upcoming battery pack will be a 8 ah 288wh I'm presuming it will have 20 21700 cells. Note that the 18650 cell usually have a higher amp discharge witch will deliver more power and the 21700 usually don't output as much but can hold more energy = high ah. So roughly the makita xgt 2x = milwaukee mx fuel. Also note that the upcoming makita 8ah battery when using two of them = 80v should give you more run time then the milwaukee mx fuel 6 ah.
"What took you so long?" Well I purposefully kept taking the blade out of the cut and letting off. Also I used FAAAAAR too much water. Why do they do this, just do it properly?
Makita is the only company that can compete pound for pound with Milwaukee and Milwaukee cornered Makita forcing them to come out swinging. If you want to see what’s next for power tools you need to support Makita. Force Milwaukee to one up Makita and show Makita that if they provide a quality tool we will invest in their product. It’s yin and yang. The US market is lacking in Makita tools. They’re all made in China today. All of them. Makita probably makes more tools in the US than Milwaukee does. I get if you want to be a patriot but just know only a select few are living the Milwaukee power tools dream minus their reps.
Actually, Makita builds tools all over the world. They also do build in China, yes, but lot's of their tools are made in Japan, Great Britain, Rumania, Brazil, the USA, some of them are even made in Germany. Makita is a great company and one of the last ones standing, fighting all on their own, not as part of some corporate conglomerate. It's remarkable how they made that happen.
Don't get me wrong, love what Makita is doing but I'll stick with my STIHL. I know how to work on them and they get back up and running after running out of gas and don't require me to bring extra batteries to the site.
I like the xgt chop saw 80v mainly for inside work. Looks like it would do good. I hate pulling the rip cord out of my stihl right when I need it the most it always happens. With battery that’s one big worry you don’t have to have.
pretty unfair. over wetting a cut will not cut good, it will for lack of better words swamp the cut with water, almost like a hydro Loc .. using significant less water (notice dusk) makita it will cut faster at 2ish inches depth
Not to be that guy and not knowing what size that stihl concrete saw is but I can say there is almost no way the Makita could beat it if it was fair just saying! But I do like Makita products. Battery tools can’t replace 60cc or larger engines yet not even close maybe 35cc home owner style saws but that’s it
You obviously are that guy. Because you lack the needed Information. Those new XGT 8 amps batteries can deliver 81 amps peak. At 36v that's 3kW output from a single battery. There's 2 of those on the tool. A 60 to 70 cc power cutter has what ?.... Somewhere around 3.5 kw output ?
@@dominicvanlievenoogen6407 your right 60-70cc saws can’t compare, that’s why every professional timber faller uses battery saws. In the next few years there will not be a battery saw no matter what type that can compare to a 60-70cc pro stihl or Husqvarna saw unless it’s way heavier and far less useful. I have a 36v Makita top handle saw for pruining and it’s great but in no way does it compare to a 35cc top handle saw yet. Runs out of battery power after making 10 12” cuts in soft wood.

@@dominicvanlievenoogen6407 I am a fan of battery tools just not misinformed tests. Pencil pushers will say things that don’t add up on a job site, nor in reality.

I don't believe in battery powered grinders for thick concrete, or breakers for concrete or the methods used here. I would be against these products as a builder of 20 years, when at these places unless, it impressed me. Seems like your the guy on a shopping channel. Trying to conVINCE people that its better. Corded will always be better
@@anemone9895 residential basement slabs in the States are less thick than commercial structures and for most cases you would not need to saw cut more than 30 ft. Which the battery powered cutoff saw would shine because you’re legally allowed to use it indoors. For electric concrete saws they tend to trip the home breakers so you maybe need to run a generator outside and use extension cords.
@@anemone9895 most U.S households have 120v. The typical outlets that are 240 are washers/Dryers. And they’re usually pretty far from where you would usually do work.

Not breathing the toxic fumes is the best upgrade as i see.

No CO2 emissions.
What about charging the battery??
That stuff with the little runtime they have isn't replacing anything.

You should get one, many uses outside of construction
Duh the other guys faking it making it look likes it’s slow then gas saws will cut in seconds trust me I cut concrete all the time at work lol
I don’t use big tools like that but it seems legit to me
Nobody commented on the lack of lung protection ?
They have pressurized water cans.
