Pretty tough for even Harbor Freight to beat this deal. Dewalt DWE4120 4.5" angle grinder. 9 amps. For $27.56 shipped to my door.

$27.56 shipped to my door. No more worries about over heating or bogging down and one of the bigger benefits is safety. I don't know about you guys, but I have had my HF grinders jump out of my hand and fly around the ground in circles until I could unplug them. I have also caught my shirt more than once and rolled it up against my skin, again, until I could find the switch and shut it off. My belly has the marks to prove it. With the Dewalt, it has a paddle switch. Which means if you let go of the grinder, it shuts down. My shirts and belly will appreciate that.
I will still keep the HF grinders, but only as backups or loaded with cutoff wheels for when I need that and don't want to swap out the Wire cup brush on the dewalt.
