Description

With zero emissions and lower noise, the 18V LXT Brushless Cordless Blower (XBU03Z) is a welcome solution for clean-up applications. It’s powered by one 18V LXT battery (sold separately), the same battery that powers the full range of solutions in the expanding LXT system. This blower features a compact and ergonomic design, weighing in at only 6. 5 lbs. and measuring 32-1/2” long. With no carbon brushes, the Makita BL Brushless motor runs cooler and more efficiently for longer life, and delivers speeds up to 116 MPH air velocity and a full 459 CFM. Makita’s efficient BL Brushless Motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per battery charge than similar non-brushless tools. Electronic controls efficiently use battery energy to match the changing demands of the application for increased power and speed when needed. A cruise control lever provides management of power and run time. The XBU03Z features Makita Extreme Protection Technology (XPT). XPT is a protective seal inside the tool, and is engineered for improved operation in harsh conditions by channeling water and dust from key internal components. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion System, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V Lithium-Ion Batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger. 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. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT and Compact Lithium-Ion Batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.

  • WOW... This Blower is Impressive
My mother needed something light-weight and portable for blowing her gardens and cleaning out the garage and such. The last time I a used an electric blower was many years ago and the power was underwhelming so was a bit skeptical at first, but after some research landed on this as unit as my choice. This product truly blew me away... I cannot believe how powerful and how incredibly light this blower is. Last I checked this was actually rated as the most powerful electric/battery-powered blower on the market, and it has certainly impressed the heck out of me. I got the kit that included a 4.0ah / 18v battery, but I also have a few 3.0ah batteries from other Makita tools I own. I found, that at least for our purposes, the 3.0ah batteries are more than adequate. There is no difference in speed/output from using a larger battery, just run time. My ONE gripe with this is that there are two "attachment" pieces (extender and angled/focused tip/nozzle). They aren't required, but are nice to have. Regardless, last I checked they were selling individually for ~$20/piece. I find this to be a bit of a frustrating sales tactic to increase margins by squeezing another ~$40 for two small pieces of plastic to complete this "kit". That said, there are several off-brand options available for cheaper, and considering it's just two pieces of molded plastic this is the way I intend to go. in short, we absolutely LOVE this blower. This is not something that I'd use to clear my large yard of leaves, but is spectacular for small-medium jobs like blowing out gardens, cleaning up workspaces... we even use this to dry the cars after washing. I love this units design... it moves an INCREDIBLE amount of air, and is also incredibly lightweight and compact, and IMHO reasonably priced. I truly could not be happier with this unit and would recommend without hesitation. If you're in the market for an electric blower look no further, this unit will not disappoint!! ... show more

  • Works great!
For the small size, it is powerful enough to do the job. It sucks battery but not as much as I thought it would. I still got all the use out of it for the job on one battery. Unfortunately, when I took it out of the package, the plastic attachment nozzle had scratches on it. It doesn't affect the performance though. ... show more

  • great blower for easy yard clean up
I got this blower to blow all the carrot wood droppings (which is a lot). Instead of sweeping all of them, i can blow them in a corner and use a dust plan. Its light weight, easy to use and the battery lasts around 20 minutes before re-charging. Most important to me--its a Makita product and they have built in quality which I like. ... show more

  • Makita Quality
Very good blower with a ton of air volume. Good battery life using a 5.0Amp HR considering the air volume it puts out. I bought this to blow out the garage and blow off the patio. I had bought it just before Xmas and i thought it was the best present i bought myself. But the wife inherited it so i guess its the best present i had bought her LOL. She uses it more than i do blowing leaves and snow. ... show more

  • Great tool, worth it …. But
This thing is powerful, I really do like it’s power, plenty for home use. With the volume and speed most projects are no problem. It’s also pretty light, with the battery attached I’ll switch hands twice, so no problem for a battery worth of blowing. A couple issues… -Reason for the one star deduct is it’s so short with just the tool, a blower should come the proper length but makita offers an extension to make it proper length (191L13-5). The pic includes the extension. -This isn’t really a complaint as it’s so powerful. It IS a battery hog. I get 5 minutes on a 3ah and 8 on a 5ah. You’ll definitely need multiple 5ah batts for a full size yard. Overall it’s what I expect out of makita and better than a couple other brands I’ve used. ... show more

  • Best Leaf Blower Ever!!!
I have always used gas-powered blowers to corral leaves, which are heavy and tend burn you out (especially kiddos!). This blower is lightweight and very powerful. If you purchase the nozzle, it's even better! I don't, typically, leave reviews but this guy is well worth the money and cheaper than buying locally, unfortunately. Well balanced, lightweight and kids friendly. ... show more
