i've got a bosch grinder,goes straight into any household socket!!!!



Makita and dewalt do some good cordless grinders......try screwfix..
I have the Dewalt angle grinder 18v it is ok but the battery life is really bad even with three batterys they could not keep up with me on the job. Seems if you charge the batterys quite often in the day they seem to take longer to charge.
So would I buy one if I knew what I do now = nope will stick to my Makita battery wet cutter it does what I ask and lasts longer than the Dewalt for battery life but cannot be compared as a like for like comparison.

ive got the 18v cordless makita with li ion batteries very good grinder battery life good and fully charged in under 20minutes if i had to give it a mark out of ten it would be an 8
I've the makita 18v ,battery life terrible
Once you go mac, you'll never go back
try ebay i got one with two batteries for under £50.00

A long heavy duty extension and a multi-port end is way cheaper than a good cordless, and you still need a plug to charge your batteries in any case.
I have a 18v Dewalt. very good and very handy. I am not one for using angle grinders on big jobs anyway but they are very good for small things, snagging and small kitchens with little sockets, etc.
18v dewalt with 2.6 nimh battery lasts ages, plenty of torque too



Need the high powered batteries, mine are only 1.3 ah with the makita

its all about the ah. do these 18 v tools come with a high ah? if not then thats why.
