Pros
Less dust - The micro-filtered dust container creates a cleaner working environment and the dust-proof on/off switch extends the life of the tool.
Comes with a 20V 2A battery. The SKIL PowerCore20 system is phenomenal. You can use the same batteries for the entire PowerCore20 tool line. but make sure you get a backup if you're doing big grinding jobs. Or just get another PowerCore20 tool as they all come with at least a 2 or 4 amp battery. Brilliant.
Pros
CHARGE IN 5 MINUTES - Automatic PWR jump charges the battery in just 5 minutes or fully charges the battery in 30 minutes.
Used in a workbench project to prepare for a new coat of paint. It lasted about 2 hours and the battery dropped to 1 bar at the end. I used it at speed 5-6. The Pwrcore charger takes approximately 25 minutes to charge a full battery. The use of variable speeds is a nice addition. The dust collector collected most of the dust from the old paint and was easy to remove and clean. After work I did a thorough cleaning with a random orbital sander with a deep soft small brush and a powerful vacuum…
Pros
Longer run time and battery life - Industry-leading PWR 20-core lithium battery technology Each cell is coated with a cooling material to keep the battery on, increasing run time by 25% and doubling battery life.
