Metabo seem to be a favourite.

How long dose the battery last

I have no personal experience, but followed a previous thread recently that found them to be quality tools.

You’ll need two batteries. I have the Bosch also. Not used a wet cutter for over 20 bathroom jobs.

I have two batteries. They last long enough. Charge quickly too

Metabo are really well made tools without going into the realms of Hilti and Festool cost wise. That said, any of the top brand grinders are good- Bosch, Dewalt, Makita, Milwaukee etc.

The Metabo with its HD batteries is a notch above, alongside the Flexvolt Dewalt and the Hilti Grinder which are arguably the best on the market

I have the brushless Makita, the body is slim compared to others so it's easier to handle.
I think people generally opt for whatever batteries they already have in other tools.
The most important element for quality though is the blade, and the user!
