Air Killer - Milwaukee 2485 M12 FUEL Cordless Right Angle Die Grinder 

*It made the metal cutting go very smooth with the right kind of blade **MyBest.Tools** I didn't use the blades that came with it though. I had a bit of trouble with the guard, but besides that it is a great tool.*

Thank you for actually stating that it has a variable speed trigger, no video so far has specified that it does

Buy the tool only, Home depot has had 2) 3AH batteries with charger for $89 going on for months

First person to figure out how to bypass the torque sensor is going to have a shitload of views. These things suck, ive seen 10 of the damn things stop after seconds of use. They jumped the gun and i bet they bypassed it during their bullshit demos. I have 5 of them and the longest i can keep 1 running is 20 seconds and thats also using the highest capacity battery and not using it hard

Straightforward honest review……thank you!!

I had a twisted wire wheel stran do all the way through my lip, please wear a shield with these kind of tools. nice review thumbs up.

A little more powerful than the pneumatic and stupid big... Seriously this thing huge. If you only work on parts that are removed from the vehicle then i guess its ok but for real world use when you have to work in confined spaces this will never replace a pneumatic

Just got one of these myself. Definitely handy, but it is bulky and gutless. It is excellent for cleaning, but your not going to be hogging off steel with a 1/2 carbide burr with this and it's much bulkier than your average 90 degree die grinder.

The Milwaukee die grinder with its brushless motor is a whole lot quieter then any air grinder I’ve ever used, no need for ear plugs or earmuffs.

I love mine but air die grinder never runs out of charge and makes cool sounds😂

Based on my experience, I would suggest getting the bare tool and at least one 6ah battery, and probably two. In normal use, the 2ah batteries are just not powerful enough. One person's opinion.

As soon as an electric air hammer is invented they will be toast, but how the hell does one make a electric air hammer?

Do NOT use Roloc disks on aluminum cylinder heads.

This is not an air killer

Who the hell actually uses the 2.0 batteries? Go compact 3.0 or jump straight into the 6.0s

If most bits are not compatible to those high RPM’s, which ones ARE recommended??

Just bought one today $159

I love using this for brake jobs to clean up corroded surfaces and now my air grinder just collects dust lol.

I find the safety intrusive. I think I’m going to tape it down.

Which roloc disc is best for gasket removal? Thanks!

Great for road service call's were you don't have access to air.

Ya a torque number would be better than a horsepower number because .3hp at 25000 rpm that's a much smaller number

Can't wait to see the straight inline die grinder!

Honestly the only air tools worth having are 1hp and you need a ridiculous compressor for those. This beats anything you would want at home or on the road.

Hi, right angle or straight you would probably suggest?

What size is the collet on this? Looks alot smaller then regular air die grinders

Hi Tim, I indeed absolutely love this tool as a DIY'er. Sounds as a huge investment for a man like me, but it's still worth it. (I paid $169 plus tax for a bare tool, I have plenty of batteries and chargers.) I'd never use it with a low-capacity battery though, unless I find myself in a situation where I have no other choice. Normally, I'd use it with a 6ah battery, knowing that it's definitely a very high power consumer, especially when spinning at 25,000 rpm. Therefore, even if it was my first Milwaukee tool purchase, I'd have bought it as a bare tool plus a couple of 6ah batteries with a rapid charger. I use it for many purposes, like widening holes in tiles (e.g., for drain openings), wood, metal, plastic, etc.; smoothing rough edges or deburring in any of those materials; and, of course, removing old paint or corrosion from old surfaces to prepare them for repainting or just make them smooth, especially in hard-to-access spots, where neither angle grinder nor orbital sander can reach. Too bad though that my tire shop won't allow me to use it even though its advantages over its pneumatic counterpart are absolutely indisputable. We keep having our multiple coiled air hoses constantly tangling with each other, we're wasting tremendous amount of time trying to untangle them very often; some inexperienced guys still forcefully pull tangled hoses, they're sometimes getting ruptured as a result, so we're wasting time and money whenever we end up replacing them. I offered them to replace all handheld air tools with their cordless electric counterparts made by Milwaukee, yet the top management won't approve it... Sounds pretty silly but I have no choice but to cope with this stupidity.

I just bought that die grinder its super awesome, except for one little issue thats kinda a big one. The battery life. That die grinder annihilates batteries...

Rpm.

Thanks for the vid. Question about use of scotch bright roloc I was told along time ago to not use on engines because the fibers get in engine. I wold like t hear from you or others if it's ok. Just curious

Makes me wonder what the long term future of the 2438-20 M12 variable speed polisher/sander will be if this replaces half the functionality, or at least the functionality that most reviewers profiled heavily

Thanks Tim. Awesome video as always.

Running it that hard like 6c I'd definitely go with the bigger battery that is 2p

There are 3.0Ah batteries that are the same size as the 2.0Ah batteries.

Really like it ! Need to get me one.

nice info

Nah air tools will always rank #1 over cordless

How good is it in the pouring rain.

Waste of money!!! Toy keeps shutting off under light load!

Unlike an angle air grinder, the motor is in the head, eliminating the need for rt. angle gears and saving power, BUT the down side is a big fat head that is bigger than a 2" roloc, making it impossible to get into corners. A 3" roloc will easily stall the tool and is not recommended by Milwaukee. I would like to see an air tool style small geared front with a bigger motor and 18volt battery or even a corded model. that will have more capacity and replace any rt angle die grinder. There are plenty of long nose straight grinders, both cordless and corded. Maybe they could make one to accept a rt angle drive attachment.

battery life sucks, need the 6ah to get 15 min of continuous use
