Key Features & Benefits
- 53-hour runtime — the longest battery life in the Makita radio range, running for nearly seven full workdays on a single 4.0Ah charge without radio features draining extra power.
- IP65 dust and waterjet protection — sealed against fine dust and direct water jets from any direction, built to survive the worst jobsite conditions.
- Multi-voltage compatibility — accepts 40V XGT, 18V LXT, and 12V CXT batteries plus AC mains, so it runs on whatever battery you have in your kit today.
- Digital tuner with LCD — clean station selection and display, better reception quality than analogue tuners, with preset memory for quick access to favourite stations.
- AUX-IN jack — connect a phone or media player with a 3.5mm cable for music playback without Bluetooth pairing steps.
- Twin 89mm speakers — larger drivers than compact site radios, producing fuller sound that carries across a workshop or open site.
Maximum Runtime, Minimum Fuss
The MR001GZ is the no-frills workhorse of the Makita radio range. It trades Bluetooth and DAB+ for extreme battery life — 53 hours means you can run it all week without swapping batteries. If you just want radio on site without smartphone pairing or digital radio subscriptions, this is the model to choose. The AUX-IN jack is there if you do want to play music from a device.
