I have a makita lxph03 0-2,000 RPM is this worth getting? or not fast enough??

Hi, I think this one will be good for waxing but not for polishing. Regards!!

I would say so...Its a good tool and works well. Even if the drill doesn't spin fast enough, it will just take longer to complete your project

The lack of rpm will kill you. 2500 rpm still felt a bit slow for me personally but it worked with time. 2000 is too low

Seems High to me also; mine was around $139. Check this out: Makita LCT209W 12V max Lithium-Ion Cordless 2-Piece Combo Kit

the speed is 580 rpm. it might polish flat stock . I would use a buffing wheel and buffing compound.

Its not a high rpm tool. It is a variable trigger. I use as a gasket cleaning tool in automotive with 3m disc. I wish it had more rpm.

Absolutely! It is genuine Makita & works well. The "complexity" is that it is also a battery conditioner & apparently handles various configurations for their 18v batteries. FH

The general rule is the faster the better. You can use any RPM, but why. I have 5 each 7200 rpm in mine.

Slow. Idk an actual speed. I bought an axial 27t motor for about $13 and it nearly. Doubled the speed. Still climbs fine

Milwaukee doesn't state maximum RPM. I wouldn't think that 2000 RPM would damage it as it's pretty rugged, however, it is a BIT holder, not a drill chuck, so driving 1/4" hex shank bits at that speed may be excessive. I think the decision should be based on whether you would drive the particular bit at that speed without this adapter...

Sorry, Ido not know the answer to this. I would suggest the person contact Makita directly through their web site.

My Makita holds the smallest bits. Yours may have a problem with the chuck. My chuck loosens if it jumps out of a Phillips Head and vibrates. Given what I expected from Makita and what I got I would give it a "C+" overall.

Best thing is to call Makita. My guess is the smaller diameter blade and slower RPM is better for metal. The smaller blade reduces the surface speed of the tooth.

I certainly does for me, but I am a wood turner and I do not trust kewless. With a key I have personally tightened it and KNOW, it will not fail and at 3000 rpm that is a great import to me. for normal use, I am not sure, but for my quick changes I have five of them and have incamentally larger bits in each one and they work very well. Hope that assists.

I recommend a low RPM motor that has a 5/8 shaft with keyway. You can get 5/8 bore pulleys at a hardware store. You may have to order the pulley that goes on your mill since I could not find that size at the store. My system is configured with a 5" pulley on the motor and a 3" pulley at the mill with a 30" belt to get an RPM from 83 to 133. Your motor doesn't necessarily have to be that low of RPM but you do want to crush your mill any higher than 200RPM. I spoke to Todd Millar, the inventor of this product and he recommends no more than 200. Wether you have to reduce or increase your speed, go to this site to figure out what pulley size you need to achieve your desired RPM: blocklayer.com/pulley-belteng.aspx

I have the Velineon in my slash platinum. I honestly wouldn't spend the money to get the Mamba. It's not worth it. Mine is for racing. But if you want speed runs get a the mamba that's made for speed runs. But you will have to upgrade your drive train. But it's also a rustler and won't go too much faster (gearing) That's my personal opinion. Just get a 3s battery if you want to go faster

No this is not a Makita it is a Power Extra. As to their power, I have not had the opportunity to use them yet. So I don't know how they are going to hold up. Don't have much use for them in winter time. Hope this answers your question.

As with the other replies, no. If like me, you acquire your tools piecemeal, waiting for bargains to pop up instead of taking the leap with a mega-combo kit, then the suggestion to get a Sears or Home Depot/Husky bag is a good way to go. Bargains on Makita will probably continue in the short term as more and more of the pre-brushless tools go on doubly-reduced pricing. If you'd rather have brushless, then look for the "BL" descriptor and expect to pay more.
