Makita EG6050A Power Generator 6.0 kVA

Product Information

One reason we might have gotten this amount of runtime from 4 5.0 Amp-hr batteries is that Makita designed a load monitoring and load shifting capability into the PDC01, for improved tool performance and extended battery life. Makita supports the creation of an enriched society on a global scale, through the provision of power tools, outdoor power equipment, and pneumatic tools.

The answer to this question depends upon how the user feels about turning a cordless tool into a corded one? After that, the answer is simple. Many craftspersons would not want to do that because of how they work and how they use their tools. Those folks may not wish to buy the PDC01. Integrated LED battery charge level indicator allows monitoring of battery charge on all 4 batteries individuallyIntegrated L.E.D. battery charge level indicator allows monitoring of battery charge on all four batteries individually Equipped with Star Protection Computer Controls™ to protect against overloading, over-discharging and over-heating If you have propane available you probably know you can store propane for years. It does not gum up, go bad, or pollute the air like gasoline does. Use the little bar-b-q grill type cylinders as shown above or up to the 1000 gallon ASME tanks. One feature I liked is that you can detach the power supply housing from the harness and use it as a standalone unit. However, the 1.7-meter cord length becomes the limiting factor in usability. For stationary tools that do not require much movement, the PDC01 can be set to the side and used. For such tools as miter saws, job lights, or a vacuum, this is a very useful feature. Makita designed in the flexibility to change between 18v and 36v tools by using either the 18V LXT Adapter or 18V X2 LXT Adapter (191A53-7 and 191A52-9, respectively).

This is a case of a great device serving the needs of a specific group of users. The PDC01 is not for everyone that works with cordless Makita tools. But it really helps those that need it. Finally, I would improve the product by adding an integral charger that lets me plug the PDC01 into the wall and give me a set of 4 freshly charged batteries in the morning. As it is, I will need to use both of my DC18RD dual-port chargers to give me four charged batteries. I am fortunate to have these two chargers. Some users will need an additional set of batteries to rotate through the charging cycle. Others will need a lot of time to manually change their 4 batteries using a single charger or chargers.
