does the Makita FD01W have a battery indicator like the Bosch....I like using the hex bits

No it does not have battery indicator. Don't need one. When the drill slows down pop in a fresh battery and go.

I don't think so. I know the charger has an indicator though. I use my drill everyday and the battery lasts a long time.

The battery number for the drill is BAT181. You can find it for sale on Amazon. As for the circular saw, I don't see anything listed. You can contact Bosch directly at 877-267-2499, they will be able to assist you.

It does come with two batteries. I like makita, so I don't know know it compares to anything else

One is a variable speed drill with a chuck, the other is a driver with a 1/4" hex drive. For example I use the drill for a pilot hole and the driver to drive the screw and don't have to change back and forth with one tool. I also bought the Makita 12v flashlight and use it daily. Battery life is very good. These are not 18v heavy duty units. Perfect for woodworking and hardware around the house. Happy with !

No. This one in particular doesn´t have one. Other models like the Makita 5007MGA Do have it but the price is almost twice.

No battery included. Also, no charger included. This tool is ideally suited to those who have the other Makita 18 V tool systems.

Yes, blue Makita have the 3 amp/hr batteries. Certain white tools come with the compact 1.5 amp/hr batteries. Most of the Makita tools will work with either size. Certain saws, and grinders will only except the larger battery.

I'm not sure about the particular model you mention but would doubt it supports Dewalt batteries. My 18V 1.5Ah batteries (also Makita) don't work. I had to buy the 18V 3.0Ah battery as there is a tab on the saw that prevents the use of the smaller battery. With the 3.0Ah battery, the tool is great and I am very pleased with it.

Very good Makita!,,but DOES NOT come with the "big" 18V. it needs...I think I paid 80 some dollars for the one it takes but the upside is it works in the 18V impact drill so it does well with the bigger battery. So I was sorry I had to get the right battery but it can switch tools so..

Not that one doesn't exist, but I have never come across any brand of multi-tool that has an LED. I have the Bosch, a Milwaukee, and a Dremel and none of them have an LED

Mine did not. But the price is right and this is a totally great saw! The first one I had (basically the same thing) lasted for more than twenty years. I don't think Makita has ever made a bad tool.....I have a bunch of them and have never had a real complaint. Don't worry about add-ons- just buy yourself a good saw.....and this is it.

Yes. My dad got a drill combo set and it came with the 1.5 20v battery which he said didn't last long. I bought the 3.0 20v for longer usage. You can also check on lowes.com if u want.

A coworker of mine had the tall rectangle Makita radio with the pivoting handle on top. It sounds a little better, as far a batter life goes, not sure, I didn't watch that closely.

The kit does. If you buy tool only, it does not so make sure description is kit. Also, there is new and old version. New version has "red" in branding of battery - which last longer than old. I can't remember correct term and can't look up right now but check on this before buying the kit.

If I remember correctly from when I purchased the Bosch drill, it is the difference in the batteries that come with it. One has the heavy-duty rechargeable batteries while the other has the lighter duty. I bought the drill with heavy-duty batteries. Regardless though, the drill is a great drill, very solid and well-made, and I could not be more pleased with it. Hope this answers your question.
