The DMR301 and MR007G are the perfect job site companions, the company says – as well as outstanding output, they have also been designed to withstand tough site conditions. Even better still, the DMR301 can be used to charge Makita’s LXT and CXT batteries for added on site efficiency.
The new DMR301 DAB/DAB+ Job Site Radio is compatible with both LXT and CXT batteries and is the first job site radio in Makita’s line-up to offer battery charging (when powered by the mains using an AC adaptor).
Thanks to its dual power functionality, professionals can use the same LXT or CXT batteries to power their tools and accessories on-site, as well as keeping batteries charged across the working day to maximise efficiency.
Furthermore, the DMR301 can also wirelessly connect to mobile devices (within a range of 10m) via Bluetooth and features two USB output ports for charging mobile phones. To ensure that it can withstand tough jobsite conditions, the DMR301 is dust and showerproof (IP64-rated) and includes elastomer bumpers and metal pipes for added durability. The swivel mount, soft bend antenna also minimises breakage and/or loss.
When powered using a 6.0Ah 18V LXT battery, the DMR301 will run for over 24 hours for entertainment all day long, and for those looking to unwind at the end of the working day, the DMR301 is even equipped with a built-in bottle opener.
Just in time for Christmas, the MR007G DAB/DAB+ radio is now available in a special edition red finish. The MR007G is compatible with Makita’s LXT, XGT, and CXT batteries and can also be mains powered using an AC adaptor jack. This radio is suitable for use on construction sites as it is dust and showerproof (IP65-rated) and includes elastomer bumpers.
The MR007G can be wirelessly linked to mobile devices (within a radius of 10m) via Bluetooth and includes a USB port for charging mobile devices on site.
