If you’re just starting out with Makita’s battery line, you can always hit two birds with one stone by purchasing a kit. Makita’s 18V LXT Brushless Blower Kit comes with the blower power tool, an 18V 4.0Ah battery, and a battery charger to get you started. Now, you may be thinking a blower is a strange Makita tool to use while detailing your vehicle. On Makita’s website, it clearly states that a blower can be used to dry your vehicle after a wash instead of using towels, which can cause streaks and scratches.
This blower kit comes with a 4.6 out of five rating from over 900 buyers. It can deliver up to 116 mpg and a full 459 cfm while having a variable speed trigger and cruise control lever, so you have full control of the amount of air coming from the blower. It’s also incredibly lightweight, coming in at 6.5 pounds, so your arm won’t get tired too quick while trying to dry off your car. Additionally, it contains a brushless motor, so it will last longer and have less maintenance than brushed motor tools.
