That camping stuff is so over priced you can buy a goal zero battery or jackery. Cheap RV fridge from Amazon for less then 1/4 the price. Really scratching my head here?.. come out with table saw and release the tools that are already released in Japan already
Have to make a pretty compelling case to warrant messing with a battery that requires a handle. Love the mock up. Limited edition NZ only pink battery.
Will this be like Makita old 36v platform , only seen a cultivator that used that battery . Also Makita should start using bigger cells , 25700 or 30700 , only need to use 15 cells . There are already 10 Ah 30700 cells .
I dont think "homosexuals" would object to "pink" building tools and batteries 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🥰 colour coded to match their handbags, also trans gender and cross dressers with trans sexuals.... Lets get the LGBGTCHIDTHC communities involved into the building/home diy trade..... Businesses are always looking for "new markets"...... well here it is.... PINK CORDLESS TOOLS 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰😂😂😂😂
Locking you into different platforms makes them more money because you "have to buy" the accessories for that platform...... soon 80v batteries will be available (perhaps fall 2024?)..... yet another "must have" platform where current tools become obsolete Who remembers 10v and 12v tools going up to 14v and 18v?..... i was on a "second hand market, and saw those tiny batteries....... even 9v if i remember?
I think the big battery platform with a handle makes sense, I just don't understand why they made it 64v. Surely 100v or even higher would have been a better choice. Could be used for a ride on mower, table saw, a big backpack or walk behind blower, high velocity fan, etc. Maybe even a space heater or small AC. I just don't see the point of this when the 40v x2 can deliver more power.
The 64V battery could be using a different cell package, maybe pouches instead of canisters. The clue maybe in the lower weight. Makes sense to develop a cheap(er) battery with a lower power density for applications where size is not so much of an issue but price point is like the home owner market . Wouldn't be surprised if these batteries are cheaper per kWhr than the 18V and 40V ones. Off the top of my head, a concrete mixer could be a good application for one or two of the 64V batteries.
Dont forget the 64v "pink" flashlight sold with complementary lube inline with the gay pride launch on gay pride celebrations day for all transgendered and homosexual builders led by the Makita tool corporation....... Especially welcome will be the pink gay workware for all transgendered workers who appreciate the stiletto healed workboots inline with the altered health and safty guidelines which will require all members of the building trade to wear pink workwear for better visibility. studies have shown that pink 💗 workware for builders 👷♂️ will help to reduce work place injurys, and Makita have their high visability "pink bunny" and "fluffy puppy" ranges ready for launch to tie in with all local "gay pride" celebrations to be held this year.......
On the wst 06 (could also be a wst07) I bought the uk version of the miter saw mounts, but I also made a piece of wood with mounts that will hold the two battery 36 volt saw and the 40 volt 8 1/2 inch saw side by side, it’s nice like that. Ideally you’d have 4 saws running when trimming out a house as to never adjust the blade angle/bevel.
Major blunder by Makita. There's definitely applications for big briefcase batteries, but the obvious solution for Makita would be 80V so that they could sell an 2x XGT adapter. No one is going to want to run a 64V mower AND a 40V trimmer, and no one is going to want to run a trimmer with this beefy 64V battery. Hopefully they release a 40V mower and this dies a quiet death.
@Steve D Yeah, I'm wondering if this is a budget alternative to an X2 XGT mower. Maybe it's a somewhat standalone package and they're not planning anymore 64V tools. Seems like the existing LXT mower already fills that role though? Maybe the X2 LXT didn't have enough runtime and a kit with 4x LXT batteries was too pricey?
I don’t like conspiracy theories usually, but…the mention of “budget alternative” just made me think of this. Their normal tool batteries are priced substantially above the per cell price. I know they have other costs etc but, I think they likely make money on them. This sort of tool really needs a lot of battery power. The price points of their other tool battery packs may make the lawnmower a very expensive tool to run. Impractically so. By using a new battery pack design, they can sell the battery pack at a lower per-watt-hour price without undercutting their XGT and LXT battery pricing.
This seems like a step backwards because the 40v max 2x = 80v so wy would we need a big 64v battery. Like you said though it's probably just for mowers perhaps they will make a zero-turn 64v mower like ego and ryobi.
This battery would be ideal in the backpack configuration. Other uses: wheelbarrow, air compressor, coffee maker for the crew(lol), cooler, fan, tower lights. There are numerous things that would benefit from these batteries.
That cloth flap to show when the catcher is full looks like a really good idea. I'm sick of the rigid plastic flaps that inevitably break or fall off and get lost. But I'm going to wait for the 120V mower with two of those batteries. If Makita is playing silly games with the "more volts than you" mower crowd best wait until they go all in I reckon.
The stand-alone kit makes enough sense. A competitive market there. We’re looking at it from the cordless-power-tool-battery-platform-user’s-perspective.
I'd say that the battery(bl6440) is about a kilo. It's probably half empty too, To make space for more cells later on without increasing the size of the pack like the 40v max. Also, no sign of it on makita.Jp
Hopefully a battery powered generator or some kind of large inverter/battery box for travelling comes along. Can't give myself any other reason to buy this and I love wasting my money on tools I'll never use
Thats why the battery is "pink" to off set the shock of the noise with matching pink body for the lawnmower and flowr/pink puppy sticker sold to "adorn" their pink mors with "pink batteries"....... "oooooh just lovelly sweetie".... 😂🤣😂🤣 "Real men" would have to refute the term "pink" and say it was "salmon" coloured, !nd omit instalation of the "puppy and flower stickers"...... Lmfao ..😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Some Makita choices are weird, so I don't realy know how will it be, but 4Ah can be 21700 cells, so only 16 of them. 70gx16= 1120g, but with case, wireing and stuff is up to 1,5Kg easy.
I think they might be making a big mistake. Trying to be more like Milwaukee. But if they are trying to do that I think they need to come out with much more variety as Milwaukee has. Don’t get me wrong I use Makita exclusively. Just giving a bit frustrated when I see what Milwaukee is coming out with. Versus a trimmer or a blower.
My gut feeling is Makita is going to produce a full line of larger power equipment using this 64 Volt Platform. We will probably see Zero Turn Mowers, Walk Behind Concrete Saws, Trenchers, Plate Packers, and more. These would probably be powered by multiple batteries for more power and or runtime. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a line of UTVs in the future.
@@KiwiBassHead It would obviously be just an inverter for AC power. There are plenty of these units with built-in lithium packs out there that are called generators.
@@danielwaddell123 Fair call, I suspected that is probably what you meant, I just couldn't resist.😉 I totally agree, these batteries would be great for some sort of large capacity power bank with a solar charge option maybe. It would also address one of the major flaws IMHO with the large power banks that are on the market at the moment which is the batteries are not replaceable or upgrade-able. Makita could make a chassis that housed all of the inverter, step down and recharge electronics that had space for, maybe 4 x 64V batteries but was only sold with one, so the cost of 'entry' was lower and then you could add capacity at budget permitted. I'd buy one.
Right now these are top of the line models but 80v Max mowers must be coming and then these 64v mowers will be stuck in the middle of the range between LXT/XGT mowers that are on far more versatile battery platforms. Maybe if the pricing is right then they'll make sense for some customers, but it does seem an odd move for Makita to introduce yet another battery platform requiring 3 new products to be developed (battery, charger, mower) when they could have just developed an 80v Max mower which will be more powerful anyway.
Locking people into battery platforms makes more money...... but (as you say), it is stupid..... lets see if people are more stupid and buy into that ridicules nightmare 😂😂😂😂😂
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL Yes and you were right when you said you didn't believe the 1 kg👍. I found this channel today and are now watching hour after hour, video after video, it's great! I'm a totally Makita nerd.

Sorry for my spelling, I'm from Sweden... Hi from Sweden!👍 a new follower💪
Does it make sense? Probably not to anyone that watches this channel, but for the average Joe/Jane that has a makita 18V drill they got 4 years ago. They know it’s worked great the 4 times they’ve used it. Now they’re in the market for a battery mower and 18v 40v 64v don’t mean shit to them , I think that’s the target market..
They're probably going to have a battery backpack like they do for 40v.. you put the battery in the backpack and you have a cord connecting to your tools from the backpack.. probably mostly going to target commercial use
That's as big as a motorcycle battery. My DUH523RT hedgetrimmer arrived last week. Here I was just thinking to myself the LXT 18V batteries are like little monsters. That's very resourceful of you to stick a door handle on it! 😂
64v Battery STATION. then we can just plug a wire harness from tools to battery case Edit: They really should make a 64v Miter saw for this line if it takes.
Interesting but Makita once again defeats the notion of buying into an ecosystem with 18v, 40v and now 64v with NO interoperability. Why not let me plug in (3) 18v batteries into this mower? I'm happy with my 18v system but would consider buying non Makita for an electric mower or snowblower when I move those to electric. What were they thinking?
Well, there is the 40v to 18v charger adapter, but that only helps with how many chargers you have on the shelf...So yeah, after reading all the comments, everyone's on the same page. Just a head scratching wtf.
Agree.... but the "pink battery" 💗 is a smart move into "new markets" and has been highly antisipated by the LGBGTGKTSECJL community's for many a year now....... Makitas "pink line" 💗 has been a closeley guarded secret untill now, with their "flower" and "pink puppy/furry bunnie" ranges of lawnmowers and building tools/diy market. Shelves should be fully stacked inline with this years launch to "tie-in" with all local "gay pride" celebrations.... and marketing execuatives are confident that the new line of tools and pink workware will be sold out for the building trade, including the newly designed pink work belts replaced with "handbag styled" work pouches.... "Non-gendered livery" will be avalable to the building trade, with "stiletto healed" work boots, marketing executive was quoted as saying..... An amazing line aimed at new markets for all transgendered buysexual and cross dressers including all homosexual men in the building trade...... What an amazing way to "come out" all lead by the Makita tool manufacturing company from china for american builders.... Major news coveradge is expected come the launch in early september (sextember remember, the gay pride builders launch by Makita)....
64V....say what.....firstly how about makita make some more power tools for the 40V platform that they marketed and advertised and i brought into, waiting patiently.....but there isnt really a large range of 40V power tools yet. Love your channel.
They'll get around the size and weight of the battery by using an extension cord to the tool. 😉 Or a power bank for charging other batteries on site where electricity is not available. 😎
Lol..... 24v truck batteries in a "wheelbarrow" kind of carrier with extension cords to other chargers..... there trying to faizeout gennies, so everything runs on batteries, thats makitas dream....... but eventually, there needs to be a charger somewhere in the process.....? Perhaps start looking into "solar/wind" powered kinds of chargers?..... portable nucular powered chargers with free sets of lead lined gloves 🫣......😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yep.... like that fridge thing, with its own rods and water cooling tanks.... its "dooable"..... controled releases of thermo-nucular energy like a mini fukushima plant in that ice box chiller.... (self powered infact?)..... i want the patent on that 🤣🤣🤣
Think they might be looking at larger equipment like zero-turn mowers? Big market being forced open by govt's for that. They've done backpack batteries before, they could make a 64V backpack that feeds 40V or 18V equipment, cause I don't see you sticking one of those on a weed trimmer.
But a pro still needs a trimmer, blower, hedger, pole saw, et cetera. Seems like madness to not just make a 40V or 2x 40V mower so that everything is on the same battery. This battery is too big for a trimmer and too small for a ride on mower - also too small to compete with 2x XGT. Just seems to be in the No Mans Land of batteries. If they'd gone with 80V like Ryobi, then it would have enough power for bigger tools whilst being compatible with XGT via a 2x adapter
"Pink mobility" with Makitas "gay pride line" of tools and workware for all transgendered cross dressing homosexuals in the building trade and home diy markets.....
Agree.... Makita are tring to move up the level of their tools offered by atlest 12v/year and hope to arrive at 100v 0.5 amp batteries by 2027 or 2030 as technologies become available.... Makitas planned "route map" for their pink tool lines 64v, 76v, 88v, and 100v with 12v increments per expected year, all chargers to support the lines to accompany batteries at additional costs, and tool ranges hopefully to support each platform per year is expected but not promised, snorted Makita marketing execuative Mr.Flyed Ryce Hik-Dung on tonights business chanels interview.

![BLACK BAG - Official Trailer [HD] - Only in Theaters March 14](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Du0Xp8WX_7I/mqdefault.jpg)
Surely they could just put 2 x 40V batteries in it, instead of created a another ecosystem based on a 3rd battery type?
I guess with this they are doing 2x64V or something, lol. Such a strange decision.
Yeah for real, would love to replace my 80v greenworks platform with the Makita 40v line but eh, not yet I guess.
80vmax CHAINSAW (with some torque), and a 80vmax LAWN MOWER are the only 2 tools that would make me buy into the 40vmax ecosystem .

@@mohammedisaa9952 my comment was made a year ago when the XGT mower wasn’t out. Two of them are now currently on sale.
The 64v be good for stationary systems needing batteries.
Vacuums, table saw, thicknesser etc that have a high load
I would rather have x2 xgt 80v
Oh no doubt. But it’s more simple power management as don’t need to balance the two batteries.
May be better for surge or torque spool up?
They're probably going to have a battery backpack like they do for 40v.. you put the battery in the backpack and you have a cord connecting to your tools from the backpack.. probably mostly going to target commercial use
Came here to say this.
That's as big as a motorcycle battery. My DUH523RT hedgetrimmer arrived last week. Here I was just thinking to myself the LXT 18V batteries are like little monsters. That's very resourceful of you to stick a door handle on it! 😂
64v Battery STATION. then we can just plug a wire harness from tools to battery case
Edit: They really should make a 64v Miter saw for this line if it takes.
And a 64V hand dill that turns that 200mm earth auger better 😂
Ryobi came out with an 80v suitcase battery for their 80v zero turn mowers. Perhaps Makita could follow suit
1 of those 80v batteries would save on using 2 x 40v batteries, especially if it had the same output current wise or better..... ?..... 🙂👍🏻
Interesting but Makita once again defeats the notion of buying into an ecosystem with 18v, 40v and now 64v with NO interoperability. Why not let me plug in (3) 18v batteries into this mower? I'm happy with my 18v system but would consider buying non Makita for an electric mower or snowblower when I move those to electric. What were they thinking?
Well, there is the 40v to 18v charger adapter, but that only helps with how many chargers you have on the shelf...So yeah, after reading all the comments, everyone's on the same page.
Just a head scratching wtf.
Agree.... but the "pink battery" 💗 is a smart move into "new markets" and has been highly antisipated by the LGBGTGKTSECJL community's for many a year now.......
Makitas "pink line" 💗 has been a closeley guarded secret untill now, with their "flower" and "pink puppy/furry bunnie" ranges of lawnmowers and building tools/diy market.
Shelves should be fully stacked inline with this years launch to "tie-in" with all local "gay pride" celebrations.... and marketing execuatives are confident that the new line of tools and pink workware will be sold out for the building trade, including the newly designed pink work belts replaced with "handbag styled" work pouches....
"Non-gendered livery" will be avalable to the building trade, with "stiletto healed" work boots, marketing executive was quoted as saying.....
An amazing line aimed at new markets for all transgendered buysexual and cross dressers including all homosexual men in the building trade......
What an amazing way to "come out" all lead by the Makita tool manufacturing company from china for american builders....
Major news coveradge is expected come the launch in early september (sextember remember, the gay pride builders launch by Makita)....
64V....say what.....firstly how about makita make some more power tools for the 40V platform that they marketed and advertised and i brought into, waiting patiently.....but there isnt really a large range of 40V power tools yet. Love your channel.
They are pumping out 40v tools quicker than I can review them.
Do they they just want to create an incredibly long lasting option for big devices? Less a tool battery than almost a whitegoods level battery.
With all these voltage increases we're all going to end up going back to corded lol
Seriously, I thought it would be an 18v times 3. But a completely different platform???
Makita really needs a badass new compact job site table saw. DeWalt keeps taking their lunch.
In my opinion. It should be a 40x2 system. It rick to use the big one battery. If it's brock, people have to pay for the upper price.
Am i the only one thinking to myself MAKITA STAHP! STAHP IT W THE FUNKY VOLTAGES!!
64v MAKITA TD003G for the win :D
They'll get around the size and weight of the battery by using an extension cord to the tool. 😉 Or a power bank for charging other batteries on site where electricity is not available. 😎
Lol..... 24v truck batteries in a "wheelbarrow" kind of carrier with extension cords to other chargers..... there trying to faizeout gennies, so everything runs on batteries, thats makitas dream....... but eventually, there needs to be a charger somewhere in the process.....?
Perhaps start looking into "solar/wind" powered kinds of chargers?..... portable nucular powered chargers with free sets of lead lined gloves 🫣......😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yep.... like that fridge thing, with its own rods and water cooling tanks.... its "dooable"..... controled releases of thermo-nucular energy like a mini fukushima plant in that ice box chiller.... (self powered infact?)..... i want the patent on that 🤣🤣🤣
Table saw ... Maybe?
Camping fridge 64v would nice
This is better ruclips.net/video/X96MrVqL_D4/видео.html
When is the 60v impact driver being released 😂
Review soon😉
Think they might be looking at larger equipment like zero-turn mowers? Big market being forced open by govt's for that. They've done backpack batteries before, they could make a 64V backpack that feeds 40V or 18V equipment, cause I don't see you sticking one of those on a weed trimmer.
?????........ did somebody mention "weed" on a Makita product review video?..... 🤔.....🤣😂🤣😂
Why would they go to 64 and not 2 40s
They do 2x 40s on lots of tools now.
Guess this 64V platform goes after PRO line of OPE.
But a pro still needs a trimmer, blower, hedger, pole saw, et cetera. Seems like madness to not just make a 40V or 2x 40V mower so that everything is on the same battery. This battery is too big for a trimmer and too small for a ride on mower - also too small to compete with 2x XGT. Just seems to be in the No Mans Land of batteries.
If they'd gone with 80V like Ryobi, then it would have enough power for bigger tools whilst being compatible with XGT via a 2x adapter
@@toolscientist milwaukee also has 80v line for high demand tools.
Dewalt has a flexvolt for that.
64V would be great for an inverter generator
I think ...frige..or microwelle..😁😁😁 koffemachine or for camping..😁😁😉😉
a fourth battery type is definitely a bad idea
There's a lot more than 4
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL
I don't own much Makita myself, I only know of the 12V, 18v, 40v, and 64v.
A riding lawnmower???
I could see 4 of those on a riding mower
Maybe even a pink golf cart, or disability pink electrically powered wheel chairs ?????
"Pink mobility" with Makitas "gay pride line" of tools and workware for all transgendered cross dressing homosexuals in the building trade and home diy markets.....
One Mo gen. Another good video.
Agree.... Makita are tring to move up the level of their tools offered by atlest 12v/year and hope to arrive at 100v 0.5 amp batteries by 2027 or 2030 as technologies become available....
Makitas planned "route map" for their pink tool lines
64v, 76v, 88v, and 100v with 12v increments per expected year, all chargers to support the lines to accompany batteries at additional costs, and tool ranges hopefully to support each platform per year is expected but not promised, snorted Makita marketing execuative Mr.Flyed Ryce Hik-Dung on tonights business chanels interview.
I got some Makita USA news today too. They told me to sod off....
Nobody:
Makita cxt: anyone remember me?
18V LXT Sub-Compact kinda steals the show from CXT.
MAKITA RULES✊😲
Makita, put that battery (or 80v) in a snow blower also please! Or I'm getting a pair of Toros.
Not going to happen.
geebs - That thing could power a Tesla for like, a hundred metres or so I sure.
Seems silly. Why wouldn’t you invest 18 or 40 volt. As it gives you so many more options in tools !!!!
You might get a copyright strike for that 64v mock up.
For 3 bits of wood nailed together?!? Should be alright.
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL It's still April 1st here
I cannot believe, that so many people fell for this joke and had a proper discussion about new battery system. Please DO NOT REPRODUCE
You are gonna feel so stupid dude.
This looks like an abandoned concept from 2009....
No ,power pack for weed eater etc.
18v+18v=36v 40v+40v=80v
The 40 volt is 36v.
@@CowsGoMonkey Yes. Only a full battery is more than 36v
Thought this was an April Fools
Nah
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL mad! I have the 36v lawnmower and love it. have the 36v chainsaw too. Never needing petrol and immediate starts is such a luxury!
Too easy- Happy April's Fools!
Wrong.
And it's not April Fools where I live
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL Not any more, no. but an April fool's joke only needs to be launched on said date, and yours was, according to the date stamp above.
@@ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL And if it wasn't, it should have been. How many Makita platforms do we need? This is just going to weaken their base loyalty.
Well technically it was released at 6 a.m. on the 2nd of April where I live, and April Fools jokes traditionally need to be done before midday on April 1st.
Why not just 80v max totally usless IMP just use 40v batteries
This an April fools joke?
Nope
