Looking for advice on cordless grinders

Tilers Forums Official Sponsors

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..

Good point. If the OP is going for Bosch then my Bosch charger will charge a battery to 80% in 15 minutes so it might be worth going for that one if the budget stretches to only two batteries

Or whichever brand he goes for, get the fast charger

I had a few of the popular different makes and now have happily settled with Metabo. Best value for money on performance, quality and handling without going into the realms of Hilti imo. Go to MTS Mallusk or Denis Wilson Glenavy @Balloo and get to know them, they’ll look after you and price match the internet for you. It’s handy to be able to leave a tool in under warranty if you ever had an issue rather than having to wait on sending it off etc.

Apparently Makita brushless draws on battery less as it is brushless . I don't now why I nothing about electrics , but it plus slower at 8500 rpm compared to 10000 rpm. But please check what I'm saying
