About Makita's 18V Compact Lithium-Ion Cordless Tool Series
As one of the pioneers driving the cordless tool revolution, Makita changed the game with its breakthrough 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Series. Three years after its debut, Makita's LXT Series has grown from seven to over 35 tools, providing a wide range of cordless solutions for professional tradesmen. Makita also added 18V compact lithium-ion for cordless power in a more compact size. Makita's 18V Lithium-Ion batteries and ENERGY STAR rated Optimum Charging System provide several benefits over old battery technology. When compared to traditional 18V Ni-Cd batteries, Makita's 18V Lithium-Ion batteries have 40% less weight, longer run time, and five-times lower self-discharge to keep cells active and ready to use at any time.
Makita's 18V Lithium-Ion battery delivers 2,000 cycles--2.5X more than Ni-Cd. In addition, built-in shock absorbing features help protect the battery, and 16 firm-holding contact terminals deliver constant high power. During the charging process, a built-in memory chip in the battery communicates with the Optimum Charger for a more efficient charge, extending the battery life. Makita's Optimum Charger is also faster: it will charge an 18V LXT Lithium-Ion battery in just 30 minutes, and an 18V compact lithium-ion battery in only 15 minutes. Makita also offers a Rapid Automotive Charger for 18V LXT and 18V compact lithium-ion batteries that plugs into 12V DC sockets equipped in most automobiles and trucks for added mobility.

Tools and Hardware Reviews of Makita BDF452HW 18-Volt Compact Lithium-Ion Cordless 1/2-Inch Driver-Drill Kit
Customer Review: Great for small hands
Summary: 4 Stars
I have used this drill since March 2009. I bought it because I am a woman with very small hands; women's small garden gloves are too big. I have to buy kid's gloves. I had previously owned an 18V Ryobi, but was thankful after many years of use that it died. The battery pack was so large I would have to hold it between my knees and use two hands while attempting to pry the battery off for recharging. The two drills that I looked at were Milwaukee and Makita because both of them have the smallest battery that I could pull off easily. I went with the Makita only because it was in stock at the time I went to purchase one.
The Makita is extremely light and well-balanced, thereby eliminating the need to rest. I have only recharged the battery once since owning it. With the push of the front button, the drill easily slides backward. No need to push buttons simultaneously on opposite sides. I don't use it daily, but at least once a week and it is a quick 15 minute charge. The only disappointment to this drill was the light and I really would have given the drill 4 1/2 stars if the rating would have allowed. The light creates light below where you actually need it, so your screw is still in the dark. Of course, I don't do a lot of drilling in low light, so it isn't that big of a deal. However, if a manufacturer is going to put an add-on feature on their drill, then they should get it right. Whenever I use it in low light, I can't help but wonder if the manufacturer actually tested it! The best light system would have been around the tip area, but like I said before, I do not use it in low light very often. If you do much drilling in low light, I would recommend purchasing a headlamp.
I would recommend this drill for home diy and especially female diy-ers as it is light weight, ergonomically designed, quick charging, and holds the charge for long periods.
