very nice cordless grinder
i own quite few 18v lithium ion makita tools and this grinder is one that i really appreciate. after reading other reviews, i wonder who would buy this with expectations of it performing on the same level as a corded model? i do a lot of interior steel stud framing and i use this grinder to cut the heads off of concrete anchors and to notch light gauge steel. this cordless grinder is GREAT for that and has a lot more torque than i expected. keep in mind that i understand tools and i know that having cordless convenience means some trade offs. it will stall out if i get stupid with it…but i use it for convenience and i know to take lighter cuts with it and to go slower than i would with a big corded unit. this thing is impressive and it will do a lot. i used it to sharpen lawn mower blades and it was great for that. i can also use it to cut thru chain links and small bolts and items that are away from electricity and would be difficult to run an extension cord to. it’s a grat tool that can do a lot if you take your time and go slow on bigger tasks.
Update (5/19/2012): This item is currently on sale here for the lowest price I’ve seen. I also found some auctions for this item here.

Very well built tool
This is a very handy tool. Works great. I use it very often and can’t really complain about it. It kind of goes through the batteries a little quicker than most of the LTX tools. Or maybe what I should say is that it requires a more charged battery. In other words once the battery is down so far it doesn’t run this tool very well. But please understand that I usually am grinding off 3/4 inch stainless steel bolts or something of that nature. It’s still awesome and great for just about any job.

handy
its handy to have- cuts bolts easily and fits hands well. it kills batteries a little quick, but its not really intended for heavy duty use. if you’re into the makita system already, this is a good product. if not, then i’d consider the real expensive milwaukee
