Makita’s new DMR106 job site radios bristles with high quality sound production features and include many technical features usually only found in high performance domestic sound systems. For protection against the harsh environments in which these new Makita site radios will be expected to operate the latest models have high impact resistant elastomer corner bumpers and steel facia protection bars to safeguard the radio, even in 1 metre falls. With an IP64 protection rating against dust and water ingress these new radios will live on site safely. The DMR106 job site radio weighs just 4.2kg and has a rugged, hinged top carry handle.

The new Makita DMR106 radios can be powered by any of the Makita Li-ion LXT batteries from 7.2v up to the popular 18v batteries, (not the BL1813G batteries) or by mains through the AC adaptor jack on the side of the radio. Bigger 89mm diameter speakers are fitted to both sides of the radio for a powerful 25watt maximum output.

Equipped with 2-star Bluetooth connectivity a mobile device is wirelessly connected to play your choice of music. The Bluetooth range is 10 metres. A retractable aerial gives access to AM and FM radio and the rotary digital tuner and pre-set buttons are clear on the front fascia of the radio. An auxiliary IN jack is provided as is a USB port which enables a mobile device to be charged from either the operating batteries or through mains power.

The new Makita DMR106 radio is available in either traditional Makita blue or the DMR106B version in stylish black.
