Makita DGA517 18v LXT Cordless Brushless Paddle Switch Angle Grinder 125mm
This is the bare unit version (DGA517Z) of the Makita 18v LXT Brushless Angle Grinder, ideal for tradespeople already invested in the Makita LXT battery system who want to add a premium 125mm grinder to their toolkit without duplicating batteries and chargers. This configuration offers excellent value while delivering the full range of professional features.
The paddle switch design provides enhanced safety and control, whilst the variable speed dial allows precise adjustment for different applications. Advanced ADT technology maintains consistent cutting performance under load, and AFT protection shuts down the motor instantly if the disc snags, protecting both user and tool. The brushless motor delivers superior efficiency and extended runtime from your existing LXT batteries.
The slimline body with forward-angled handle ensures excellent manoeuvrability in confined spaces, and the soft start motor reduces initial kickback for safer operation. Wire mesh intake covers protect internal components from dust and debris ingress.

Battery AH Explained
The best way to describe battery amp hour is that this is effectively the size of your fuel tank, the more amp hours your battery has then the longer the battery will last between charges. More amp hours does not increase the power of a given tool.
Battery Voltage Explained
A tool with a higher voltage than another is a bit like choosing an engine in a car, the higher voltage will generally mean higher power & performance. As with cars though a bigger engine does not always translate to better performance so it is important to compare the specifications of tools at different voltages between different manufacturers.
