The verdictOur take

The DJV180 is Makita's brushed 18V LXT top-handle jigsaw, with the same 135mm wood and 10mm steel capacity as the brushless models. Its top stroke rate is 2,600 spm against 3,500 on the brushless DJV182, and Makita gives a heavier 2.7–3.0kg with a battery against 2.4–2.7kg. Board-cutting vibration is 7.0 m/s², the same as the DJV182.
