Best Cordless grinders?

[Simonslimline]

I am looking to buy a cordless grinder and just wondering what to go for!

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

Anyone have any suggestions on decent, fairly priced ones?

Thanks in advance.

It will depend upon what you want to use it for.

I would recommend Hili or Makita, but if you already habe DeWalt tools.....

Buy a skeleton grinder and use your existing batteries and chargers.

Had a rhiobe one and it was crap . Got a makita now the its not bad

Only sensible option would be to buy the one that's the same brand as your existing cordless tools, as the battery grinders do tend to be pretty heavy on the batteries.

i stick with my 110V makita. it don't go flat when i'm stuck up a scissor lift.

For 5 to 10 mins worth of work get a skeleton unit to go with the batteries you already have or just go for a powered unit unless you are thinking of earning extra cash lifting bikes at night.

Thanks for the replies.

Looking at Makita. They seem to have good reviews etc.

Could not see anything about O/L protection etc on the dewalt.

Coring Holes?

Go for the Hilti one. I’ve changed all my kit for Hilti but pick it up when they have an offer on.

Tried Dewalt not up to much. Again you’ll need spare batteries as they chew them.

If you call your local hti store and speak to the rep they usually have demo units they can sell off.

Good luck

Bought a brushless Makita in the end. DGA504Z.

Seems decent

To be fair we always used to use Makita gear and I always found it good. Our supplier switched to Milwaukee so we went to Hilti.

Good luck
