I can really understand how you are becoming a big Dewalt fan. That angle grinder is very impressive. Those bolts are some of the hardest bits of steel I’ve ever heard of in a bolt. Great review of the angle grinder. Thanks for sharing

Hi. I have had this angle grinder for over a yr now and totally agree with your comments. Easy to take up on roofs to cut tile for flues etc. Love the channel. Thank you

I love this grinder. My father in law uses his daily. The power switch is nicely positioned. Well worth the money. Great video thanks!

Pretty impressive I’ve got mine coming in a few days perfect as a ground worker for all sorts of jobs glad I got this particular model and interesting to know the batteries fit all cordless machines

I use mine in fabrication, engineering, automotive, around the house and garden in fact it’s my first choice ( I have seven others to choose from) saves my two dogs ragging the cord around the garden as is so portable and versatile I would recommend it to anyone. If you have the XR battery system get one on your your Christmas wants list quick. Thanks to UltimateHandyMan for another top notch review, without him I still be in the dark ages! It’s never too late to change.

That puts my 18v grinder to shame it seems to have incredible torque under load where most don't.👍👍👍

I've never owned an angle grinder, but always thought one would be handy. Perhaps a video showcasing all the different uses for an angle grinder?

I’m now moving over to 18v Dewalt XR tools, which is why you will be seeing some Dewalt reviews over the coming months. This is the best cordless angle grinder that I have ever used! I bought mine from here- fave.co/2h5q6kg Please like, comment and share the video as it really helps me out. Thanks in advance ;-)

just got myself one on your recommendation. Great bit of kit. thanks.

I have the Markita version off this at work. Really great pieces of kit. We used them regularly for cutting upvc facial and soffits. There are easier to use for this kind of work than hand/circular saws. Great vid thank you for uploading it 👍🏻

Good bit of kit that and no need to carry two pin spanners round with you, easy and quick disc change. Thanks for video top man

Nice demo chez , i have just bought the Hilti 22 volt 115mm grinder having burnt out my trusty Makita 18 volt after many years of good service , i must say i was tempted to get the DeWalt one but having used my mates Hilti for a few days i was so impressed with it i had to get one , very expensive compared to any other but the power is awesome and the 5.0 ah battery seems to last for days without charging............ cheers mate : )

Just got round to ordering mine, early Christmas present to myself. As my previous comment - thanks for reviewing!

Thank you for making a useful video. What I mean is you actually tested the tool. I watched several videos where they read the info of the box, did a bit of grinding and said "yep I like it" lol. Reading reviews on line some complaints about battery life. Seems battery life is acceptable, seeing how many cuts it made through a bolt. I will be buying one. Again Thank you... subscribed

Great video. Dewalt make great tools. Most construction guys I know use their cordless tools.

Nice review. I'm also a fan of this 18v Dewalt kit. I have the Makita 18v grinder too which is very similar actually but I find usually Makita is slightly slower rpm and less torque generally like for like with Dewalt. I'll be watching for more of these videos. They are very handy. 👍

I need to get myself one of this. Thanks for the video you sure know your stuff very well.

Thank you for the demonstration it was absolutely helpful 👍

thanks for the video, now i will order one for me.. my drill and this one works with same XR batteries.

battery life> cutting disc life: interesting fact. As always very nice and helpful video.

Hi would it be good to carve wood

Impressive. Excellent presentation as usual.

Thanks good review,have been looking at this grinder as have dwalt cordless tools..Seen same as you on ebay,and am now about to purchase one...The price with batterys is ridiculous,so it defiantly pays to already own Dwalt products...Thanks..

Type 11 now available! It has same gearbox as the 405,one touch guard,and allen key now instead of spanner.

My didn’t come with a manual, so maybe I put the blade on wrong, but the first time I tried to use it the blade scraped against the guard. I couldn’t find any way to adjust it, so I had to remove the guard. It didn’t come with the pin wrench you showed either, just an Allen wrench.

Thanks for that review... vary impassive I will have to get one. I have just brought the jigsaw that takes the same batteries so it will be perfect... and thanks for all the videos you have made... keep up the good work my friend... cheers :-)

I’ve stopped using electric grinders years ago. Burnt up motors from medium use was too costly. We started buying high end industrial pneumatic grinders like henrytools and topcat grinders and never looked back.

I use my DCG412 all the time,in fact its my most used tool...more than my drill even. Did you know Dewalt have just released an 18v Brushless grinder?

Thanks for sharing with us!

Great video, Can you please do a follow up with 2.0 and 4.0 ah battery comparison. Thanks,

Watched your reviews of this and the milwaukee grinder, can safley say ive meade my mind up, if the milwaukee keeps doing the overload cut out thats a definate downer

Hi chaz , great independent Review. Out of all the grinders ( cordless)..... Which is the most versatile and ergonomic in your opinion ?? Thanks Steven .

Just bought this for my dad and I got a battery and charger for free. I wanted to get him the other grinder the brushless one but he doesn't need all the extra fancy stuff.

Great review! I see so many guys, maybe it's a guy thing:), remove the handle and guard but you showed the proper way to safely use the tool:)

Was looking at this exact one a couple weeks ago but stopped myself from getting it because I never really need one 🤣

Great review buddy

Looking forward to your future DeWalt reviews Chez, although in my case you’re preaching to the choir, lol I have many of the 20V XR tools (as they are marketed here in the US, even though they’re actually 18V, not sure how they get away with that...) the most recent purchase was the XR version of the compact reciprocating saw, very handy for getting into tight spots, like between wall studs... Have the Flexvolt batteries made it to the UK yet ?, I’m sure they have. Last Christmas one of the big box stores over here had a deal I just couldn’t refuse, I bought the 60V ( actually 54V ) Flexvolt Grinder, they were selling it in a kit with 2 batteries and a fast charger for the price of the bare tool ! I don’t really have much use for a grinder, although they ARE so versatile fitted with the right disc, but bought it mainly for the batteries ~ the Flexvolt batteries are backwards compatible with the 20V tools and provide even longer runtime than the XR batteries ! You should put one on your grinder and see how many more cuts you could make on that bolt ! Thanks for another great video Chez, I’ll be looking out for the next one, 👍🏼

that's some machine. One general question regarding angle grinders: the flange nut on my grinder (like most I think) has a step on both sides. On one side the outer most part is raised higher and on the opposite side the inner most part is raised higher. Depending on which way you screw on the nut either the smaller or larger circumference will be touching the disc. Do you use a certain direction for different types of disc or do you always just have the wider circumference side in contact with the disc for the larger surface area?

Very good video. Helped me alot. (I bought one).

Great review, thanks! Long time subscriber, cheers for the vids.

thats fantastic peas off kit loved the video.

Great video demo.

Is there a difference between the angle grinders that so 20v on them, or is this the same thing? If you search dcg412 on Home Depot, the body of this grinder say 20V, not 18 like this one. Is the one on homedepot better?

Nice review good performance from that battery too. I like that trigger. Those diamond discs look good too. I got the 18v Makita it's a good tool but it's got the same switch as the corded which can be abit clumsy.

Good presentation as usual

Very useful video, thank you

The angle grinder is my most feared tool, I always try to avoid using one 😂

Hi. Where do you purchase the marcrist diamond tile blades From? Regards Lee

I think a good review for you to do would be the electric stihl saw. I'm curious to know how it would cope being put to the test properly

Fantastic grinder. 😍

A brushless version, I didn't know there was one!

I agree this is one of the best 18v grinders on the market and is very handy, but it won't stand up to the abuse as well as a mains powered grinder purely because of how small the gears are inside the head. I recently took a broken one apart and it looked like all the grease had stuck to the lid of the gearbox rather than lubricating the gears and as a result it was only fit for the bin so it might be a good idea to check yours is well lubricated. It had a strange green grease inside.

This is the ultimate burglars tool. I hope you have to provide identification to buy one. It looks fantastic, I want one for work! but just see it being instantly stolen off site as soon as I put it down, does it come with a belt clip? ☺

What is the best wet flat bed tile cutter u can buy?

Great review many thanks

Just wondering. If you were to cut into a live wire with one of theses, would the tool cut out?

4:45 Just a bit after this time stamp, you can see the cutting disc breaking down and raw fiberglass and friction material coming off in an orange-brown coursed fog ... the disc is just about used up! :) .. This is because the disc itself is passing by the cut material WAY below it's idea 80 metres per second cutting speed (atual "linear metre per second cutting speed" slows naturally as the disc shrinks in size) What I do? ... Is stop cutting and save these now about 3" diametre discs to use in my little Dewalt Cut Off Tool :) A bushing adapter is needed but they are cheap enough ... OR?? .. you can find a washer to fit fairly easily ... for 22mm to 10mm arbours' size difference The cut off tool runs much quicker RPM s the disc has another full life in it!

i have 1 of the same... but im not comfortable with the balance of this grinder...most grinder have a click hold button but this u have to keep hold til finish...it feels it needs to be always 2 hands holding as to makita grinder it feels comfortable with just 1 hand...performance is alright...just handling side of this is what i mark this down on....enough for me to say dont but this type...

Do you need a Wrench to insert / remove Discs?

That's funny I bought the new bauer with the three amp batteries and it actually out performed the dewalt

+Ultimate Handyman love the channel. I need your advice please.I've been offered the DCD796 combi drill with 2x 4ah batteries for £140, or £185 with 2x 5ah batteries. For DIY, do you think it's worth paying the extra £45 for the slightly bigger batteries? I know you have both so thought you'd know best.

Would it work with a 2 AH battery?? cheers

So, I'm assuming this doesn't work with the 20v battery system?

lovely thanks

Great review. Thanks :)

Why i can't use one full charge battery only 3 minuet

The bearings just gone on my Dewalt Grinder. Its the exact same model as shown. Not used excessively so slightly annoying. I will replace the bearing for around £7 !!!

Dsm thats nice!!! I love dewalt

Question for those of you who own one - what's the noise like? My corded sounds like a Boeing starting up, and as my man cave is in a small garden, I cringe at the noise as I like to avoid disturbing the neighbours too much. My corded is a B&Q McAllister - does the job just fine, but bugger me it's loud. Anyone able to shed some light?

how does it Compare with the DCG413B - Brushless

Good stuff man !👍👍

These are great but you definitely need 5ah batteries to give you significant life between charges

Can use it with one hand if need+?

How long did it take to kill the battery when cutting the bolts

Very beautyful video

saw this at depot yesterday, just walking past I figured it was the old 18v one with redesigned battery hook up, guess not

Is it brushed or brushless

they are taking over, modern tradesmen dont even carry a mains drill anymore, a recent one i had , used a cordless circular saw, and his dewalt cordless SDS went through a 6x6 reinforced concrete post for some holes like i couldnt believe. Have you reviewed or used the diamond cutting discs for steel yet? a bit pricey but seem to be worth it as they dont get smaller.

Model, brand, P/N of wire wheel please... thx !!

0:42 ... First thing I did was plug in my Dewalt Rapid Heat Ceramic Glue Gun, and fix that sliding "lock button" so it cannot anger me, ever again! :)

This is brushed model buy why it's XR? Isn't the XR means brushless?

This is 4" or 5"?

👍🤓👍

Lol. This will be amazing for road rage.

Just wait till you use the new brushless one DCG413

Brushless?

Wrong headline it is a Dewalt DCG412 20V Max cordless grinder, NOT XR model, not 18V, not brushless

Now I have collection of bike 🚲 thanks only kidding 😂 lol

20 volt... Dewalt DCG412B 20V MAX* Lithium Ion 4-1/2” grinder

You must have been robbed a couple volts.. in the United States those are 20v tools

thumbs up mate

Makita one is better as you don’t have to hold trigger down.

I hate the handle on this thing.

Useless handle!! good otherwise..feels like a grinder attached to a broom handle. Can't beat holding a grinder with one hand, right up neer the wheel ...

Soo expensive piece
