Makita DMR055 18v LXT Cordless Radio and Work Light Lantern
The Makita DMR055 is an 18v LXT cordless radio and worklight lantern that brings dual functionality to jobsites and outdoor environments. Compatible with Makita's 14.4v and 18v LXT lithium-ion batteries, this versatile tool combines AM/FM radio entertainment with a 360-degree lantern-style worklight, making it ideal for poorly lit work areas, site cabins, and leisure activities.
The DMR055 features an intelligent memory function that retains your preferred brightness and light tone settings, whilst a battery capacity warning alerts you before power runs out. The slow lighting-up feature helps protect your eyes when switching on in dark conditions, and overload protection safeguards the unit during operation.
Built for the demands of professional use, this cordless radio lantern features protective metal bumpers that shield it from accidental impacts and rough handling on site. The integrated carry handle doubles as a hanging hook, providing flexible positioning options whether you're working in a trench, loft space, or workshop. The lantern offers adjustable brightness settings across three or four sides, delivering between 115-130 illuminance depending on configuration.

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.
