I use mine as the helper with my corded. It mostly does surface clean-up. But cordless is very handy to walk/climb & cut sth lose in the back of the yard, or high up. I also love that I can use the cordless without needing ear plugs; mine only goes up to 8000rpm.
Eryn Brady, what are you even talking about? Angle grinders are cordless. I have a Milwaukee Fuel 4.5”/5” grinder, it’s awesome. I pair it a 6 amp HO or 9 amp battery and get good runtime. It’s not like most folks who have Cordless tools don’t have multiple batteries in their arsenal, in order to change out. In addition either the Rapid Charger or Super Charger charges most batteries between 1/2 hr. To 1 hr. You must not have made the jump to cordless tools. You definitely don’t own and probably haven’t used a cordless angle grinder.
@@martylucas8557 hey I just bought this grinder and I'm looking to buy some batteries. I do concrete coatings and will be using it quite a bit. How long do you think 3.0 batteries will run?
@@brendonnettnin8826 You do NOT want to go smaller than 5Ah. I would recommend 8 or bigger, but 5 will work if you mostly do a cut here and there, and you can usually get a set of 2x5.0 for a reasonable sum. My experience is that grinding eats more power than cutting though.
I share your sentiment until I got my hands on the new HIGH OUTPUT batteries. Honestly, get a HO battery and you’ll be amazed. Also don’t mistake the HO battery with the HD battery.
@@Fee.1 theyre huge weigh alot and dont fit anywhere... great for a welder who regular needs to bevel some heavy material or grind welds flush but a diyer will be using it more for trimming around the house projects, metal working cuts and automotive bolts bodywork, 6" grinder isnt much bigger than a 4.5 or 5" with worth while power and blade reach/life advantage
You compared the 2980 to the "old model, the 4-1/2" model". Is the old model the 2783? Milwaukee Tool says the 2783 weighs 6.1lbs, and the 2980 weighs 4.5lbs, but the 2980 looks huge to the one you held it up to, so I can't imagine the 2980 is 1.6lbs lighter. Thanks.
I love my 4-1/2” Fuel grinder! Plenty of power to most everything; 4ah battery only lasts about 15 minutes continuous (it’s old). I bought it to grind down some floors; along with the Milwaukee 4-5inch dust shield there was NO dust when connected to a vacuum system. It didn’t last long enough for grinding the large area I needed but there is NO way this thing is going back! I’m getting the 5.0 battery and going to use it for everything else!
I've read multiple reviews saying that with a 5.0 you get like half your power. So I'm going to bump mine to six or eight just throwing it out for you!
I use my grinders primarily for sanding or flap wheel. When I invariably and daily lose my adjustable wheel spanner because the sanding backer disc has a wider profile I use a havy pair of needle nose pliers if the disc has torqued its ass down tight. I always keep a pair in my grinder bags now. Harbor frieght tools apparently DO have some uses :)
Hi Workshop addicts I've got a curious question for you I've seen in the past where you've reviewed the Kobalt grinder battery powered 24 volt and I'm wondering how does it compare to this new Milwaukee 6 inch grinder you guys have been great help in the past over a few of my purchases and I'm kind of curious about this if you have any information I would love to hear back from you
I've had the DeWalt Flexvolt version of this and preferred it much more than this. It was preferred because when I picked it up it had both size guards and could do both the 4.5" and 6" attachments without having to have 2 series tools like this version apparently does.
The older model 4.5 inch I cut 6" sch 80 s.steel pipe with one 5amp battery. The older model has an issue with sparks coming out it and it is too expensive to repair in Trinidad.
Nice video brother , I've been waiting for Milwaukee to release something a little more powerful than the current 4 1/2" grinder currently available. Also , thanks for not comparing the new 6.0 to the old 5.0 battery....the new fuel stuff is optimized for the 21700 cells. However I am still not retiring my 7" Makita....
What kind of wheel you use for sharpening? Or can i use the same wheel for cutting metal for sharpening? Sorry for my dumb question I’m new to this tool
I work on my Jeep and help others with their vehicles also. Would you say the 4 1/2 would be better for working on a vehicle versus that new one? Really enjoyed the review video!
On a jeep, size matters, so I normally use a small corded Dewalt rather than a battery op grinder because there is so much size difference. If I wanted battery, I would go with this one for the power and deal with the size.
WorkshopAddict so you are saying there is quite a bit of power difference? I already have quite a bit of Milwaukee cordless power tools, so I’m just trying to not worry about being connected to a wall.
Tough call. Same power.... It comes down to grip and trigger. I will own them both. I would probably have to go with the Milwaukee because it has more tools under that one battery but I really like the slim grip and pull trigger on the flexvolt.
@@gregmiller7038 True, but the 20 volt won't work on flexvolt. So... Your flexvolt tools need flexvolt batteries even in a pinch. The DeWalt flexvolt and this Milwaukee both rock and you cannot go wrong with either.
Does the flexvolt grinder also lose some power just before the battery dies? Hard to judge by the indicator lights alone since the dewalt batteries use three lights instead of four.
I have the Flexvolt and yes you can tell when the battery gets low it loses more power than other tools, judging by this video I’d say their about the same
@@mikemorgan2733 thanks. I went with the 12 and it's heavy like you said. I just bought the chain saw and it pairs well with it. Although it makes it heavier than my traditional gas powered. But it defeats and noise and convenient.
I bought one new, and the guard lock lever is a little loose, so you can click it forward away from the spring towards the grinding wheel, is that normal? I've tightened the Philips screw but its tight.. it's almost like the screw is missing its washers or something..
WorkshopAddict whoa and a 9” grinder is the next video. The rigid having a higher rpm is interesting here (octane not the previous one) as it’s yet another Case where rigid is leading with on paper specs. (Impact driver 2400 in. Lbs. ) I am curious to what degree it’s meaningful as it seemed like the impact driver was overpromising a bit.
This is better than the Power detect if you use the 12 Ah battery on this. If you do not use the right battery, this will cut out. This is not the tool for long term grinding. A corded model is.
@@WorkshopAddict yea I wouldn’t use cordless for constant grinding I have both dewalt and Milwaukee tools I just noticed in reviews that the flex volt and power detect seem to do better than the Milwaukee!
Has anyone compared the variable speed 2888-20 with this one, I'm undecided? I have a variable waiting for me at Home Depot. Just wondering if I should upgrade. For multiple purposes!
Though I feel it's a little atypical for you guys to cover something like it, I hope y'all get your hands on one of those 'installation' drivers in a couple months.

I bought the 2780-20 4-1/2 in./5 in. Grinder with Paddle last sept. It overheats on me. My business partner sent his in with same issue for warranty but Mil denied. Totally unexpected. I wish there was insider info on when new fuel versions of Milwaukee come out. I would have gotten by with a cheap cord until the improved version came out. Threw away $150 on mine. Resell isn't good on my version. Holding off on all future Mil purchases until improvements are done to each tool on my list. I think Mil probably fixed the overheat issue on this new version. Thanks for the video.
Hi quick question for u from a beginner. So I have a phobia of grinders because one time I wad changing a wheel on a corded grinder when I accidentally hit the trigger and it cut my fingers a few years ago. Now days I need a grinder to cut up exhaust systems and I'm interested in this model. My question to u is, I seen u grabbing the wheel when describing the tool that comes with the 2980, how are u sure you're not going to, or it's not accidentally going to (trigger) while trying to change the wheel.. scary..
That would be comparing a 6" grinder to a 5"? The wheel size difference between the two is pretty huge for the work one would do with either. How do you want them compared?
@@WorkshopAddict The ridgid Octane is 10,000 rpm while the 2783-20 is 8500 and the 2980-21. Does the octane have more power because of the higher RPM and less torque or does the 2783 have more torque compared to the Ridgid Octane grinder. Does the 2980 have more torque to go along with the Higher RPM compared to the 2783?
@@nsxproperties560 OK, well the Ridgid is rated at a higher RPM and I cannot prove or disprove that they are all not the same. Personally I think they rate the ridgid too high for rpm but I can tell you it does not hold that rpm, so the ridgid lacks the torque that the Milwaukee has. Milwaukee wins over ridgid in Angle Grinders. Pick the Milwaukee Grinder that fits the size and use of what you need to do and go for it. You wont be disappointed.
You should consider doing a side by side comparison between the 2783 and the Ridgid Octane being that they are both 4 1/2 grinders. I would think the Ridgid would be better at bobbing off nails into wood because of the higher velocity, but the Millwaukee might be better for grinding because of the extra torque.
Oh ya the flex holding me back on getting my own 6in Milwaukee i got all m12 and m18 (except a truhvl skilsaw) but at work I use the m18 6 tought it was great but after seeing videos of the flex 60v 6in I think if I get m18 Instead of the 60v Dewalt I’ll keep wanting to get it until I I’ll end up with both lol having hard time with this (it’s not a sickness just A obstacle)
About half the battery life as the standard fuel grinder in my daily usage. More power yes but not always needed and bigger size don't fit between pips or in rack as well or at all. I stay with the standard fuel for my daily usage at work as a pipe welder.
Yeah i bought my 6 inch fuel because my company only runs 6 in wheels. Only problem I have with them as ill overheat batteries super quickly haven't ran it with a ho or HD battery
Lookin for a tool? Nah, just grab the disk like a man and you'll be able to be tool free.. That still cracks me up watching someone lookin around for a pair of spanners..
What has made me angry about Milwaukee and still am, is HOW THE FUCK ARE THEY NOT MAKING THESE VARIABLE SPEED YET. You fucking up for the fan boys Milwaukee. Make us cordless grinders w VARIABLE speed. I mean you're mf charge the most of all brands how are we supposed to be happy as fan boys if you dont have the best of all your god damn fucking tools.
If you’ve never used an air filter these are great. ruclips.net/user/postUgkx_dppjvjF8BYEmPSDTcgCUdRsgWYLXNHN I ended up with three after starting out with one. The noise level depends on the 1-3 settings with how hard you want the machine to work. You can also upgrade the filters and get one better for pet hair and smells which is a must have in my home. I noticed the air seemed lighter and easier to breathe when running the machine for the first time. Works great every time. Highly recommended!

Won't replace corded for sure but definitely worth the convenience for quick metal prep or slag removal. Maybe even quick light cutting

This new FUEL Grinder has much more power than the Kobalt and also the 4.5" FUEL grinder. Kobalt is not even in the same sandbox.
This is one tool if you have to do a lot of grinding that you still need corded

@@WorkshopAddict More tools under that one battery platform? Remember that flexvolt batteries work with flexvolt tools as well as 20V max tools.
@@gregmiller7038 True, but the 20 volt won't work on flexvolt. So... Your flexvolt tools need flexvolt batteries even in a pinch. The DeWalt flexvolt and this Milwaukee both rock and you cannot go wrong with either.
Does this have the same safety features as the Dewalt Flexvolt equivalent?
I purchased a type 27 4-1/2 gaurd and even tho it appears to be similar it does not fit my 2980 grinder..
Does the flexvolt grinder also lose some power just before the battery dies? Hard to judge by the indicator lights alone since the dewalt batteries use three lights instead of four.

I have the Flexvolt and yes you can tell when the battery gets low it loses more power than other tools, judging by this video I’d say their about the same
How does the metabo hpt multi volt grinder compare to the this Milwaukee?
Both are very similar. Obviously, Milwaukee will have more runtime with the 12.0 Ah battery.
How would you rate this overall compared to the newest 60v flexvolt grinder?
Is this the newest Milwaukee grinder? And what's the best battery?
The 8.0ah HO is perfect for this monster. I tried with my 12.0ah too and it just makes it tail haevy.
@@mikemorgan2733 thanks. I went with the 12 and it's heavy like you said. I just bought the chain saw and it pairs well with it. Although it makes it heavier than my traditional gas powered. But it defeats and noise and convenient.

WorkshopAddict one last question, can you link or name impact drivers that beat the gen3?
Now that I bought into the flex volt line for the grinder and die grinder Milwaukee has them both...
I like the Dewalt die grinder with the VST and 3 speed settings.

If you’ve never used an air filter these are great. ruclips.net/user/postUgkx_dppjvjF8BYEmPSDTcgCUdRsgWYLXNHN I ended up with three after starting out with one. The noise level depends on the 1-3 settings with how hard you want the machine to work. You can also upgrade the filters and get one better for pet hair and smells which is a must have in my home. I noticed the air seemed lighter and easier to breathe when running the machine for the first time. Works great every time. Highly recommended!
I have this one
