Hasta La Ideas

I saw this Makita tool, and figured it had to be some sort of small vacuum unit. I was wrong. Can you guess what it is, from these first four images?

Okay, here’s the answer.

The $200 Makita LXT Hot Water Kettle will boil 27 ounces of water in nine minutes. It runs on 36V, by taking two (not included) 18V LXT batteries.

I imagine this was designed for the tea-drinking UK market, but perhaps tradespeople in cold-weather states or Canada would appreciate it as well.
