A quick question... I am getting my brother to bring home a Makita 14.4V Cordless Impact Driver Model 6935FDWDE from the good Ol US of A.

It works out about half the cost of getting it here.

All I need is a 240/110 Vac converter. But I need to know what wattage to get.

If anyone there has a Makita DC1804 Universal battery charger, could they let me know what the input wattage is?

Thanks

Dave

Ni-MH $ Ni-Cd
7.2V 9.6V 12V 14.4v

DC1413

Input 120V 60W 50-60Hz

This is not the specific model you sited but it is the charger I use for my 14.4 sewer camera.

I will see if I can find the specs on the DC1804

Thanks,

It would be much appreciated. I tried the web, and makita.com but either it's not posted, or (more likely) I was using the wrong search terms.

Someone on the wooden boat forum said that his 18 volt Makita charger says 240 watts.

Another suggested that I might want to open up the charger to see if there's a jumper inside to switch between 110 and 240 v. That would be handy.

I can see them doing that so that they would just have one production line....

Got it.

It's 60 watts.

I got a 100w transformer and everything's fine.

Thanks

Dave
