Looking for advice on cordless grinders

[Andy Allen]

All this charging 3 battery's, using one then swapping it, is there one charged...

What's wrong with an extension cable and a plug..??

Then it wouldn't be cordless would it Andy
Tbf your right though, just never get the 240v out any more, less cables to be tripping over or cutting through I spoze..

Trip hazard!!!
That’s what happened to me 2 days before Christmas 3 years back and broke both wrists

Your all clumsy then....

I tend to use a wet cutter more in the winter, there's no way I'm standing outside in the cold and rain cutting a bloody tile ....

I'm plugging in a mixer anyway so may as well plug grinder in ! I can see its merits for a one off cut tho etc

Cordless everything.......

Even mixer

Cordless multi-tool...now they definitely are a battery tool worth having.

Cutting architraves for a start, sometimes it takes longer to run an extension cable, or cables if your a long way from power than the time it takes to just get it out of the box and wip the arc off with a cordless..

 

[Waluigi]

All tools are worth getting in cordless if you can IMO and they still perform well enough.

Mine works fine with me. Purely bathroom work, only 1 bag at a time. I’ll never use a corded one again. Unless this one breaks

How many single bag mixes does it do on one battery ?

 

[Waluigi]

I’ve never tried it as I would just put it on charge after a couple of bags.

As an estimate, I think the battery goes down 1 out of 4 bars after mixing up a couple of bags. So let’s say for arguments sake about 8 bags.

That’s on the 8AH battery.

 

[Flintstone]

That's not bad really, enough to do most days work. Just when doing a decent size slc mix it wouldn't suffice

 

[Waluigi]

Yeah not bad at all. Just an estimate though.

cordless grinder, I prefer electric,
faster, I have no time to waste.
although I'm sure I could work with mine
all day with 2 6ah batteries.
I sometimes use it for small jobs, but I often use it for trims.
or I use them all together, one in a fixed position e
the other at your fingertips. it depends on the work.
