DeWalt dcg412b grinder

[bubinga]

Just ordered this grinder from Amazon.

Amazon.com

Looks like I can send the battery kit back and pay
$72.52 for the grinder.
Sort of like the Home Depot "hack".
Looks like the grinder will get here on December 8th, but the battery kit will not get here until about a month or longer.
Although they show it broken up as two orders if I try to initiate a return on the battery kit now they are grouping both of them together for $199.
Stupid FedEx lost my DeWalt advantage grinder I would have got it for $100 plus the battery kit for $100 roughly,
This Grinder is not quite as good, however the reviews are decent.
Anyone that has the DeWalt dch412b how is it working out for you?

No comments on this?
Maybe I made a mistake with this grinder?

Someone on SD's said it was "junk" and to get the brushless motor.
(Thank you FedEx).....

It’s a good grinder for quick jobs. Great for cutting something quick and away from a plug or some light grinding/sanding.

Thanks,
That's all I'd be using it for.
No long, or heavy jobs.....

If anyone is interested in purchasing this bundle and then returning the battery pack it looks like it is *not* hackable.
I got the grinder yesterday and I do not get the battery pack for another month, and it is not allowing me to return just the batteries.
I might end up returning the whole bundle or I might try to sell the battery pack but they might be hard to sell for more than $100, with all the promotions going on at the moment.

Turns out it was hackable I was able to return or cancel in other words the battery part of it and was only charged the 70 something for the grinder.

It works real nice.
Only used with cut off wheel a few/3 timesso far.
Just short use.
