True, the batteries only last about 10 to 15 minutes each, but I have several and I am tired by the time I run out of batteries, so it works out fine. Last week my big draft horse stepped on it, and I was sure it was a goner, but only the abrasive disc broke, the grinder was essentially unmarked and still works fine. I am pleased with it. I bought this little grinder for quick touch-up trims to my 6 horses hooves (I have a professional trimmer do them every 4 - 6 weeks). Being cordless, it is so convenient to just take along while doing routine chores that I can trim a couple of feet every day if I want to (with 24 hooves, that works out about right for maintenance). I will get another one of these to keep for when this one wears out or isn't so lucky next time it gets stomped. It is small, easy to use, and plenty powerful for my needs.
The instructions show an example of sharpening a knife. I just received this, and it comes w/out a battery. No mention of this in the specs, and the battery is an extra $40-60. the existence of a tool like this implies that it would be capable of cutting through a steel rod.Ripoff. Also, it is very light duty for such a tool.
and the batteries. The voltage of battery required. Hey maybe I stupid, and just didn't notice the button for complete and fufilling transaction. wouldn't the the choice of purchasing associated (and correct voltage) accessories right on the same page be a smooth move. I didn't notice that two important facts were posted. It had a cute little botton on the page for you to purchase it immediatley. dave but think a minute, if sombody is into "quick".
