Looking for advice on cordless grinders

[Balloo]

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!

What size battery for the makita are you using and would a charge last all day

That’s why I went for the Bosch. I have their cordless impact driver / drill set. Which is great and the battery works in the grinder. I will prob get their cordless jigsaw next

Would you recommend buying one or are they not a necessary item for the tool box

Hi. Sorry. Would I recommend buying a cordless grinder? For me yes. But it depends on what you do.

I have a makita. No it won't last all day but that question is a bit like how long is a piece of string .
I use 4 ah batteries with mine although 5ah would be better .
But 2 batteries should keep you out of trouble .

I’m going to buy a 5ah for my set as it expands

Two batteries is enough because explaining the obvious, whilst one is in the tool, the other is in the charger. I think I have five of the Bosch 4ah batteries but that’s my main tooling. Only two of the Metabo.

I use a Makita cordless with 5AH batteries, have three on constant rotation, if your doing stone and use it a lot you can eat a battery before next one has chance to charge up so having three batteries means there's always one fully charged ready to go..

5amp and 'all day' could mean 4 cuts, could mean 400.
I'd guess you could get 50m of cuts in porcelain though.

Cutting quartz today and a 5ah Makita battery didn't last long
