- Check Out The CRAFTSMAN V20 RP 4.5" Paddle Switch Brushless Angle Grinder At Lowes AND Watch For SALES! - www.lowes.com/...
-----------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: Lowes lists this CRAFTSMAN Angle Grinder as a variable speed model in the specs and it is not.
The CRAFTSMAN V20 RP 4.5" Paddle Switch Brushless Angle Grinder works well and has a solid output of power. We go through the power with each different battery and we would highly recommend that one uses a 2 or 3P battery pack with this tool. A small 2Ah battery pack only has 5 cells and they get very hot after a very short time in use. You can see how hot with our thermal imager later in the video.
This is a Paddle switch grinder and works well for short jobs. IMHO, no cordless grinder is good for long jobs unless you have a pile of freshly charged batteries with you. The Tool-free guard allows for easy adjustments and is very smooth. That is my favorite feature of this grinder. I really miss a brake on this tool.
CRAFTSMAN provides a 3-Year Limited Warranty on this tool.

Bryan I like what your doing with the craftsman and metabo tools. You’re the only big name channel I’m subscribed to that actually gives them a chance. I’d absolutely run this after seeing the abuse it just took.
New craftsman brushless is underrated
Super impressive. Craftsman is making great tools
I’ve been using the v20 grinder almost everyday for 2 years now the $50 brushed model. Still works good. I cut and smooth a lot of metal on classic cars
I don't run my DeWalt angle or die grinders with anything less than an 8AH 21700 cell pack. Sure it's heavy, but I'm looking to get the job done as quickly as possible.
Nice review as always. That grinder looks good--identical to the old V20 brushless grinder and a red version of the DeWalt XR (without PD/FA). I still get by OK with my Dewalt brushed 20v grinder with big batteries for quick jobs or with my corded tools for longer and heavier tasks. And while the V20 grinder is tempting, I'd probably go for a 36v Metabo HPT grinder first, unless the V20 was on an absurd sale.
I'll tell you what that 2ah craftsman battery is good for running out of juice in no time. it is more compact and lightweight but I'd rather carry around a 4ah it last more than twice as long. I use these 2 different ah batteries weekly on the craftsman stick vac. I'd really like to try the other larger ah batteries and see what kind of working time I get.
I just bought the $50 brushed V20 Craftsman grinder a few weeks ago and while I've been happy with it, I wish it had a paddle trigger like this one. Vent positioning is much better on it, I'm surprised they changed that with the new RP model
You rarely need a wrench, but I love the on board storage. I wish dewalt had a spot for the Allen key for the rare instance I get a stuck wheel.
Great reviews. Appreciate all of your hard work. I've landed on these Craftsman 20v tools. There are enough battery sales at Lowes to make it work. You mentioned that half of these are good and half not. Do you have a list? I'm restricting myself to the RP modes and/or brushless.
Try their new brushless oscillating tool it's pretty damm good and brushless recip saw I got both for 99 dollars each both came with a charger and 4amp battery free ,they always have good deals at Lowe's I'm pretty happy with the craftsman stuff are they professional quality I think so they seem to be dewalt in red with little differences but they always cost less ,I got the mid torque for 45 dollars I already have the dewalt mid torque but I couldn't beat the price so the craftsman stays in my car I tested both and I'll tell you the craftsman might be a smidge more powerful
When will they make a reversible grinder?
I can tell that your channel is in a box as well. TH-cam doesn't put your videos on my home page at all. I need to go to your channel to see your videos. hang in there bro. I've been trying to get out of the box but nothing I do is working
yooo crazy you mentioned this,, ive noticed like the past month my home page n related vids have gone downhill crazy as far as the variety in channels it shows... like if im watching vids on the ryobi hp recips, the related vids will all be vids from like vcg where hes just trashin em, or a vid about makita saws from him, n like 2 vids w ryobi saws from like 12 years ago.... but it wont show me ur new vid demoing it that u had released the same day...
tbh i thought ur channel got the boot or sumn but then seen u said u had taken a break,, but still i need to hunt down ur vids, WSA vids, STR vids n so on.. i pnly get like 3 diff channels n i kinda hate em all lol
but whats up ? you piss off the TH-cam gods or sumn??
can you please review the craftsman rp multi oscillating tool and rp jigsaw?
Great content! Any word on whether Craftsman will release a hand planer, router or belt sander in the V20 line?
Y salió la lijadora de banda inalambrica
7:38.. 114°C= 237°f... that's hot as hell Brian
IT is doing an awesome job though... still running...👍
That was F
To me it look like the DeWalt. I have the flexvolt advantage and with a 6ah flex it has unbelievable power for it's size.
Where did you get 5amp battery I've only seen 2,4,6,and 9amp batteries
Came with a mower I am working with.
@@WorkshopAddict How's the mower working out
@@loucifer4205 This one is the low end model that is most affordable. It works well but reminds me of the first ryobi mower that came out. Sort of flimsy.
Hmmm... Craftsman grinder kit or M18 grinder when I already have M18 6.0HO batteries...
Used to have the brushed M18 grinder and it's OK for light duty but a bit underpowered if cutting 1/2" rod or thick sheetmetal. And it gets through batteries quite fast. I replaced it with the 2880-20 M18 Fuel with paddle switch and it's a night/day difference.
So if you get an angle grinder just make sure you go Brushless for best RPMs and battery life
@@luisinhoens90 if it's M18, it's Fuel or nothing.
@@l00nybin then you won't regret going with the Milwaukee.
@@luisinhoens90 all of my M18 tools are Fuel: hammer drill, Hackzall, mid-torque, and my Surge. I just don't use them as much any more since moving mostly to 12V, and even the few M12 I have left are Fuel.
I need to get one Amen 🙏!
Yo bro why aren’t you doing ridgid tools any more ?
Because they start to smoke when he’s testing them.
They're also on several pounds of drugs when it comes to thier battery line, they said they where doing all new bit still have bunch of gen5x and octane for sale and thier batteries are a mess. Imo they've been pretty much replaced by the high end ryobi stuff.
I was a ridgid fan when home depot came in canada. Tools were good quality, lifetime warranty on batteries.
But nowadays they look cheaper and cheaper and tool development is really slow. I'm slowly moving to milwaukee and dewalt. Batteries are not warrantied for life but they are a lot cheaper than in 2010. i'm a big fan of the flexvolt stuff.
Craftsman can slap all the lipstick they want on those tools but they are only good for housewives.
Oh But its MADE IN CHINA.
Made in Mexico.
