Waited years for a deal, a little disappointed
Sliding switch is tiring... Comparing this to old yellow brand 18v, not as user friendly for long jobs. Waited years to purchase a bosch to go with rest of drivers saws. This sucker eats through my 5 battery in a hurry. Not definite when battery is low, overheated, or just switch slips. Sturdy build, just accustom to more positive on off switch. Cutting out is frustrating.

Bosch quality, unbeatable deal.
Great having a powerful angle grinder without the need for electric, bonus deal with a free battery and charger.
