Best Cordless grinders?

[Marvo]

........I have been looking at the dewalt 54v flexvolt range. Pretty pricey though..........

At 450 quid including batteries for a 125mm grinder that's a bit of an understatement.

I've had a bosch 18v cordless grinder for a couple of years, I use it a couple of times a week but nothing too intensive. It's got motor and battery safety cut-off, battery charge indicator and it's pretty capable. More than adequate for my purposes.

I've got the dewalt brushed one, use it fairly often, but I've only used a makita one for a couple of minuets as comparison. Hardy a proper test, but I prefer ed mine. I know it's probably not the best, I got it purely because I had all dewalt kit already and got the bare unit.

I’ve the Bosch 18v and although not used a great deal - having it handy, when you need it, is the best. With the AMD3 CUs, it comes in handy if you need to enlarge the stock 40mm x 60mm rectangle of punch out metal for your cables.

Bought a brushless Makita in the end. DGA504Z.

Seems decent

Just Ordered the same model, BL motor 125mm & paddle switch along with the 154Z impactor too

My dewalt has had loads of hammer, I’ve been cutting up 900mm ladder with it since Xmas and I’ve had it for 3 years I think.

They do a more compact brushless version now so I’d go for that one.

I don’t think you could by a bad one from the mainstream brands to be fair.

Just choose s system and stick with it.

That DeWalt XR stuff is great, dewalt have really upped their game and stopped messing about with diy tools. Have a look at the reviews the dewalt stuff is now beating, or at least equalizing Milwaukee, Metabo & Hilti; BUT the price is better.

I'm invested in the Hitachi 18v range, 3 combis, an sds and a 4.5" grinder

I must get a jigsaw and reciprocate saw as well.
