Makita DJR189 18v LXT Cordless Brushless Reciprocating Saw
The Makita DJR189 is a cordless brushless reciprocating saw designed for professional tradespeople requiring powerful, precise cutting performance across a range of materials. Powered by Makita's 18v LXT lithium-ion battery platform, this model combines the efficiency of brushless motor technology with advanced vibration reduction to minimise operator fatigue during extended use.
The DJR189 features a counterweight mechanism that significantly reduces tool vibration, making it ideal for demolition work, structural timber cutting, and metal pipe installation where prolonged use is common. The redesigned blade clamp system allows for quick, tool-free blade changes, improving productivity on site. Variable speed control via trigger provides precision for delicate cuts, whilst constant speed control maintains consistent performance under load.
This compact and lightweight reciprocating saw includes practical features such as an LED worklight with pre-glow and afterglow functions for improved visibility in confined spaces. The electric brake stops the blade quickly after release for enhanced safety, whilst the pivoting shoe plate allows for better contact with the workpiece. With a 255mm cutting capacity in wood and 130mm in pipe, the DJR189 handles demanding cutting applications with ease.

Battery AH Explained
The best way to describe battery amp hour is that this is effectively the size of your fuel tank, the more amp hours your battery has then the longer the battery will last between charges. More amp hours does not increase the power of a given tool.
Battery Voltage Explained
A tool with a higher voltage than another is a bit like choosing an engine in a car, the higher voltage will generally mean higher power & performance. As with cars though a bigger engine does not always translate to better performance so it is important to compare the specifications of tools at different voltages between different manufacturers.
