Milwaukee claims that the 3672 matches the power output of a 13-amp corded grinder. When we put it to the test on some angle iron, it held up strong under pressure, with no noticeable drop in power. It reaches speeds from 3000 – 9000 RPM to give you control in any task, including cutting, grinding, and polishing. On the safety side, the 3672 features a RapidStop braking system, which stops the wheel in under 2 seconds once you release the paddle-switch trigger, minimizing the risk of injury or damage. For professionals looking to eliminate the hassle of cords without sacrificing performance, this Milwaukee grinder is an excellent investment.

Earlier this year, we reviewed Flex’s 24V 18Ga Cordless Brad Nailer, and since then, the brand has released a few more nailers onto its 24V platform. There are two 16-gauge models (an angled nailer and a straight nailer), as well as a 15-gauge model, and all three have some pretty impressive specs. Both 16-gauge nailers can drive up to 1500 nails per charge using the kitted 2.5Ah battery, and the larger 15-gauge nailer drives up to 1200 nails using the same battery. With all three models, you can choose between bump or sequential driving modes and set your driving depth tool-free.
