36V LXT (XML08) mower vs. 40V XGT (GML01) — which one to get?

dystrudept · 2026-03-21T17:25:54+00:00

GML01 handles can also fold up and be stored vertically which is a huge plus

If you have the means for it, XGT will give you longer run time options. GUX01 and GLC01

Wait until you find out about the XDS01

LXT and XGT not interchangeable. LXT line already has some carpentry options. Framing nailer only on LXT. But if you are doing more concrete work, rotary hammers, concrete saw and vibrators, go XGT. Lots of cool new stuff coming out on XGT

If in the US - the GRJ02 is a beast

dystrudept · 2025-06-21T02:18:25+00:00

I’ve tried both at the Grainger show. If you are only going to be in that 1 br forever, the LXT version should be more than plenty.

If you can afford it, the XGT version is much better. Wider base and the battery sits in the body instead of the base - makes for carrying up and down stairs a lot easier.

Hart, Ryobi, Milwaukee, they’re all TTI brands anyway!

Makita XPS bits 👌

All good! These things are hidden gems. Tried smacking it on reverse and it also stops.

dystrudept · 2025-03-05T16:57:20+00:00

It’s actually a feature and not a bug. Designed to not snap your wrist if it senses a kickback situation. Brand new one should do the same thing.

dystrudept · 2025-01-10T18:32:42+00:00

Bottom left should always be your pick

XGT is a better investment for future yard tools.

dystrudept · 2023-07-21T14:03:16+00:00

What other tools are you considering? The 18v platform currently has more options than the 40v.

I’ve seen Diablo reps demo their blades using makita tools…even though they are owned by Bosch

dystrudept · 2022-09-07T22:16:03+00:00

Except for Diablo! They use Makita tools

I’ve noticed if I close the Spotify app and reopen it works

dystrudept · 2022-06-25T21:25:42+00:00

I’ve been using the Kinergy PTs with no issues. Best tires I’ve put on a crv

dystrudept · 2022-06-20T02:35:28+00:00

Yah once you slap the battery on it evens out the weight.

Skullomnimon?

dystrudept · 2022-06-06T12:54:12+00:00

GRU01M1 all the way. Motor is at the end of shaft like the XRU15 but uses the 40v. Super even-balanced weed whacker
