Unless a guy is really grinding a lotta shit. A cordless grinder is a game changer

I agree. I use air grinders for smaller and more delicate tasks, and cordless for tasks that aren't right near the garage. If something heavy needs to be removed, out comes the 7" corded.

I really do need one of those next along with a 3/8 impact and 3/8 ratchet. But the yellow ratchets aren’t as appealing as the red ones…

The yellow 60V grinder is awesome, and the only "rat tail" cordless I could find.

Extension cord on grinder is cool but I usually am using multiple grinders on the bench, cutoff wheel and flapjacks disc so I run 1 extension cord with a 3 way on end to keep all grinders plugged in at once so I only have 1 extension cord from wall to trip over instead of multiple cords

Who says each of those three grinders can't have their own long cords to wall outlets.

I love that idea.

That's not a problem but my work area is usually 10ft from the outlets and I don't want 2 cords from the wall to work area since I usually have to roll carts floor jacks etc and it's easier to lift out cord to go under than multiple cords.
