Designed for electricians, service engineers, installers, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals requiring a compact cordless task light with integrated USB charging capability.
The Makita DML817 is a compact LED work light powered by the 18V LXT® battery platform and compatible with both 14.4V and 18V Makita LXT® lithium-ion batteries. The unit offers three lighting modes consisting of side lighting plus upper lighting, side lighting only, and upper lighting only, allowing illumination to be adapted to different working environments. Maximum light output reaches 300 lumens with illuminance up to 240 lux, providing effective close-range task lighting for inspection, installation, and maintenance applications.
The integrated USB-A output port allows compatible mobile devices to be charged directly from the connected battery, providing additional functionality on site. A lighting mode memory function automatically recalls the previously selected setting when the light is switched on again. The compact design measures only 123 x 77 x 96 mm and weighs as little as 0.51 kg with battery, making it easy to carry in tool bags, service vehicles, and site equipment cases. The built-in battery protection circuit helps protect against overload, over-discharge, and overheating conditions.
