Does it come with a battery and charger?

No. It is sold as a bare tool; batteries and chargers are sold separately. It runs on any DeWalt 20V MAX or FLEXVOLT battery.

How much more power does a FLEXVOLT battery give?

DeWalt rates up to 54% more power with a DCB606 FLEXVOLT battery compared with a DCB205 20V MAX battery.

What size wheels does it take?

It accepts 4-1/2 inch and 5 inch wheels.

What is the difference between Kickback Brake and E-CLUTCH?

Kickback Brake stops the wheel and shuts off the grinder when a bind-up occurs. E-CLUTCH cuts the motor in under a tenth of a second when a pinch or stall is detected.

Can I track it on a jobsite?

Yes, if you add the Tool Connect Chip DCE042, which is sold separately. The chip pocket is built into the tool and works with the Tool Connect Site Manager app.

Why won't it restart after a power cut?

E-Switch Protection requires you to cycle the trigger off and on after a power outage or unexpected shutdown before the grinder will restart.

What reviewers say

Owners rate the DCG416B as a strong cordless grinder that comes close to corded performance on FLEXVOLT batteries. They single out the safety electronics and smooth brushless power, while noting the bare-tool price and the need for a high-capacity pack to get full output.

What people mention

PowerPraisedOwners say it cuts and grinds close to corded performance, especially on FLEXVOLT batteries.
Safety electronicsPraisedKickback Brake and E-CLUTCH are called out as reassuring when a wheel binds or stalls.
Battery dependenceMixedFull output depends on a FLEXVOLT pack; standard 20V batteries leave power on the table.
WeightCriticisedSome find it heavier and more top-heavy than a corded grinder for overhead work.
ValueMixedBuyers note the bare-tool format means battery and charger costs add up.

About the Angle Grinder 4-1/2" - 5" Flexvolt Advantage Dewalt

The DeWalt DCG416B is a cordless angle grinder for 4-1/2" to 5" wheels. It uses FLEXVOLT ADVANTAGE technology and delivers up to 54% more power when paired with a DCB606 FLEXVOLT battery than with a DCB205 20V MAX* battery.

A brushless motor delivers 1,550 max watts out and up to 9,000 rpm. The grinder is part of the PERFORM & PROTECT line and has a Kickback Brake and an E-CLUTCH System. The Kickback Brake engages with maximum force to quickly stop the wheel and shut off the grinder when a bind-up occurs. E-CLUTCH shuts down the motor in under a tenth of a second when a pinch or stall is detected.

E-Switch Protection requires the trigger switch to be turned off and on again to restart after a power outage or other unexpected shutdown. The chip pocket accepts a Tool Connect Chip DCE042, which connects with the Tool Connect Site Manager app for asset management on the jobsite. The battery, charger and chip are sold separately.
