## Description

With zero emissions and lower noise, the 18V LXT Brushless Cordless Blower (XBU03Z) is a welcome solution for clean-up applications. It’s powered by one 18V LXT battery (sold separately), the same battery that powers the full range of solutions in the expanding LXT system. This blower features a compact and ergonomic design, weighing in at only 6. 5 lbs. and measuring 32-1/2” long. With no carbon brushes, the Makita BL Brushless motor runs cooler and more efficiently for longer life, and delivers speeds up to 116 MPH air velocity and a full 459 CFM. Makita’s efficient BL Brushless Motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per battery charge than similar non-brushless tools. Electronic controls efficiently use battery energy to match the changing demands of the application for increased power and speed when needed. A cruise control lever provides management of power and run time. The XBU03Z features Makita Extreme Protection Technology (XPT). XPT is a protective seal inside the tool, and is engineered for improved operation in harsh conditions by channeling water and dust from key internal components. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion System, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V Lithium-Ion Batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls. Star Protection is communication technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT and Compact Lithium-Ion Batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.

Review: Surprisingly light and powerful - Very happy purchase. Paid for itself with the first usage (didn't have to hire the cleanup crew). Made clearing leaves from all the delicate plants very easy, and probably much safer than trying to rake it all out (much less damaging if you keep the airflow at the base). I started using it after some rain, and I'm really impressed that it handles wet leaves just fine (I was worried about a lack of power). A new-ish 6 amp battery doesn't last very long, maybe 10 minutes or so, so it really helps to have extras. The product photos show it with an extra nozzle, and it's not very obvious unless you do your research that the Z indicates it doesn't have a nozzle, so I'm disappointed to not have that - it would have helped with some finer work around plants. Nevertheless, I love the locking trigger, simple design, and light weight. So happy to not have to deal with a gas engine.
Review: Wonderful!! - Best Yard ""Toy"" ever!! Powerful, reliable, worth the money!! I do recommend a 5 amp battery.... in a emergency, you can use a 3 amp battery but won't last long. With a 5 amp. will work about 25 to 35 minutes. Use the low speeds for small things to save battery... but if the job is heavy, pull the trigger and nothing resists. I take 2 to 3 minutes to blow all the front and side porches of our home..... I use a nose cone adaptor to concentrate the air flow so it gets more powerful! I also use do dry my motorcycle, clean um the pick up cargo area etc.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the difference between this and the dub182z?**
A: The DUB182z is an older model with less power.  It produces a maximum of 91 cfm (cubic feet per minute) of air volume and weighs 3.9 pounds.  
The XBU03z is the new brushless motor model with 5 times more power (459 cfm) and weighs 6.5 pounds.  
Both are sold without a battery.  I have 6 other Makita tools and have plenty of batteries so glad they sell it that way.  The XBU can do jobs much faster.  Love mine.

**Q: Can i use a 18v bl1830 with this blower. if not can the lxt battery noted for the blower by charged on the bl1830 charger?**
A: I don't know about the BL 1830  battery, but it does NOT work with a BL 1815 battery.  I bought this unit specifically because I was told by a Makita salesperson that all Makita 18V tools work with all Makita 18V batteries.  THIS IS NOT TRUE.  Returning this blower.

**Q: Battery Life? How long will it work with 5amp battery on the Highesr level?**
A: I’m using this blower and purchased the Makida 18v 5ah batteries. My total run time mostly at high speeds was exactly 12 minutes. Replaced the dead battery with a fresh Makida 18v 5ah and another test was conducted also at high speed. The second result was timed at a little over 14 minutes. I never came close to the advertisement time of 20 minutes at constant high speed.

**Q: Does the 6.5 weight include the weight of the battery? If not, what does the battery weigh?**
A: I suggest at least 4ah Makita brand battery. The 4ah weight 1.33 lbs. Love the blower. Works great for quick grab and blow clean up.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality and blowing capacity!
*by P***K on September 8, 2025*

Makita makes a quality product. I purchased this as my current blower was electric and required an extension cord to work. My driveway is 300’ and that’s a lot of extension cord!! The Makita blower takes care of clearing my driveway of leaves and debris with a powerful blowing capacity. I did buy 2 rechargeable batteries, and I’m glad I did as it takes both to clear the whole driveway. They are fast charge so are ready in 30 mins to be used on the next clearing job. It is also light enough that my wife can comfortably use it for extended periods.
