Makita Products “I’ve Spent 300,000 Yen Award” (*’▽’)
Probably… definitely. I’m the type who doesn’t calculate.
This is the episode about 2022 BEST? Makita Power Tools Part ③-3 “Awarding My Own Prizes.”
It’s not a tool, but it might not be something that makes you go “Oh!”… or maybe it will.
Here’s my honest take.
“Great for Napping Award”
Cordless Heated Knee Blanket CB200DBK (Black)
I mean… it’s gray, right? No, it’s definitely gray. There’s no way this is black…
It’s light and thin, so it’s surprisingly practical.
You can wrap it like a robe (it has buttons)
or drape it over your knees
or use it as a blanket for napping
or even place it on a chair (my butt and the back of my thighs were warm).
I can’t believe something like this could be warm… I’d recommend it for desk workers.
However, the battery is somewhat in the way, so you’ll need to get creative.
“Surprisingly Not Very Useful Award” – at least for me…
Makita 14.4V/18V Battery Holder A (A-72154) &Cable Unit B (A-72160) Set (For Makita Cordless Heated Jacket, Vest, and Knee Blanket)
If you use genuine Makita batteries, this is essential.
Since I use a regular mobile battery, the purpose is… well, limited.
I keep it around just in case, but that’s about it.
“High Personal Satisfaction Award”
Makita USB Adapter ADP05 (Battery Sold Separately)
It’s an international model, so the color is olive (‘ω’)ノ
The performance is the same… and I don’t show it to anyone anyway.
It’s purely a world of “personal satisfaction.”
Isn’t it nice to own something and feel satisfied… don’t you think?
“Durable and Warm Award”
Makita Heated Vest 2019-2020 Model Size M (Battery and Charger Sold Separately) CV202DZ
I personally wear size S. If you can try it on somewhere, you should.
If the size is too large, there’s less contact, so I think the warmth decreases.
It’s not super stylish, but it’s GOOD for work! ♪
Most importantly, work clothes don’t get dirty easily. That’s huge.
And it’s durable. So far, no issues whatsoever.
I chose this over a down vest because I thought it would tear easily.
It’s sturdy and warm, so I rely on it heavily.
I’m currently using it with a trigger cable and mobile battery, and it’s extremely comfortable.
XMHL USB-C PD Trigger Cable 12V
With 20000mAh, I was able to use the heated vest at maximum temperature for about 5 hours and 40 minutes.
I’ve purchased various things, but this has made it quite comfortable.
Prices are sure to go up in the future? Why not grab one while you can?
