Makita RP001G 40v XGT Cordless Brushless 1/2" Plunge Router
The Makita RP001G is a professional-grade cordless plunge router powered by Makita's advanced 40v XGT battery platform, delivering exceptional performance for demanding routing applications. Built around a brushless motor and accepting 1/2" bits, this router combines the convenience of cordless operation with the power traditionally associated with mains-powered tools, making it ideal for site work, joinery, and carpentry tasks where mobility is essential.
Engineered for precision and control, the RP001G features five variable cutting speeds to suit different materials and applications, from softwoods to hardwoods and sheet materials. The constant rotation control maintains consistent speed under load, ensuring clean, professional cutting surfaces every time. A lock lever provides precise depth adjustment, whilst the stopper base offers quick selection between three preset cutting depths for repeated operations.
Practical features enhance usability on site and in the workshop. Dual LED work lights illuminate the cutting line for improved visibility in poorly lit areas, whilst the shaft lock facilitates rapid bit changes using the supplied spanner. At just 3.9kg, the router offers comfortable handling with balanced weight distribution, reducing fatigue during extended use. AWS (Auto-start Wireless System) compatibility allows connection to compatible Makita dust extractors for cleaner working conditions.

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.
