These Strange Makita Tools WILL BLOW YOUR MIND!

What happens here

The presenter introduces a Makita cooler/warmer, which operates off two LXT batteries and features four cooling and two heating options, ranging from 15 degrees Fahrenheit to 140 degrees Fahrenheit. It can run for 5.5 hours on high heat with two 5.0 Ah batteries, providing a total of 10 hours of runtime. Beyond keeping lunch warm, it's highlighted for pre-heating epoxy or silicone in cold weather conditions. The cooler can also be plugged into a wall outlet or a car's cigarette lighter, but it does not charge the batteries while operating on external power.
