- Already own Milwaukee M18 batteries? The 2767-20 uses them; the XWT08Z needs Makita 18V LXT batteries and a charger.
- Already own Makita 18V LXT batteries? The XWT08Z is the one that fits what you have.
- Starting from nothing: this is a battery-system choice more than a tool choice; compare the kit versions (2767-22, XWT08T), which add batteries and a charger.
- Evidence boundary: 3 spec rows are published by only one maker in the table below; unstated figures are treated as unknown rather than assumed.
From the published figures only; no testing. Rated figures from different makers are not measured the same way.
