Good for a battery operated grinder [Posted on 2006-03-04]
I used this grinder to prep metal before and after i weld. Yes as said before, it won't last you all day, but will last about a half hour of steady on and off work. I don't have a garage so i work outside. I have to drag a bunch cables out the house to get power. Having this tool lets me drag one less cable to power cable and i don't have to mess with a cord when using it. Think of it as the same joy when using a cordless drill, its much nicer with no cords. If you don't work in a confined area, this unit will be perfect. Even in confined areas, it won't be bad. I welded a strut tower on a car and i was able to reach most places. Just have a couple of batteries on standby (batteries come off the tool hot). As for the grindings sticking to the case, just vacuum them off between battery changes. The saw will take a cut off disc. In the combo package i got, it came with one. The head can be rotated 90 deg by removing the 4 screws on the front if you need to get into tight places.
Pros:
Cordless freedom
Nice trigger button and trigger lock, no messing with a slide switch
Has plenty of power (until you get near the end of the battery)
Cons:
batteries don't last that long on this thing
length of the entire unit a bit long with battery
RPMs not as high as a corded grinder
DeWalt 18 volt Cordless Angle Grinder [Posted on 2006-11-12]
I have used this grinder to cut through rebar and for general grinding applications and it works great. It is very comfortable to use and well balanced. Just one thing, make sure to use a newly charged battery because it will run down older batteries rather quickly. It may not replace a corded grinder for heavy duty grinding applications, but for all purpose cutting and grinding for small to medium jobs it works very well.
Excellent cutoff tool for quick jobs [Posted on 2007-01-11]
I have a Dewalt 18 volt hammer drill that I love, so when my Makita angle grinder died, I bought a Dewalt replacement. I like the tool. It is easy to change blades and flexible in use because of the 18 volt battery pack. Power and torque is good for most cut off and grinding jobs, but the tool drags a bit during use with a wire brush for jobs like heavy paint stripping. The battery life is a factor with heavy use--more than with my Dewalt 18 volt drill. To be fair, the tool is not designed for this type of use. I would highly recommend this tool for a user who needs a fast and flexible cutoff tool or for a quick grinding job. For longer grinding or stripping jobs get a Dewalt corded angle grinder.
Great Grinder on the fly [Posted on 2007-04-12]
I love this thing. I can use it in the yard, at the race track, anywhere cordless. Battery life is reasonable and it works great with flapper disks.
Great deal, Great tool [Posted on 2008-03-15]
this tool works great. came with very useful optional guards. had no problem cuting through 8 guage pipe, handles very well. and has the ability to rotate the head(silver part) to any of the 4 directions on the handle. i'm very happy!!
