The 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Drywall Screwdriver Kit (model XSF03T) breaks new ground for drywall contractors. It is ideal for hanging sheetrock， metal framing， installing subfloors， backer board and decking applications. It's powered by a Makita BL Brushless Motor for longer run time， increased power and speed and longer tool life. With the exclusive Push Drive Technology， the 18-Volt Drywall Screwdriver can be set on lock-on mode so the motor starts only when the fastener is engaged. This gives contractors a quieter work environment and also saves on battery power. It's built for added durability with Extreme Protection Technology (XPT)， which is engineered for improved dust and water resistance for operation in harsh job site conditions. The 18-Volt LXT 5.0Ah battery provides 65% more run time per charge than the 3.0Ah battery (BL1830)， yet it charges in only 45 minutes - the fastest charge-time in the category - for less downtime and increased productivity. For added convenience， the battery features an integrated LED battery charge level indicator. For improved tool performance and extended battery life， Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls. Star Protection is 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.
