The Festool ETSC 125 Li is a cordless random orbit sander with a 5 inch (125 mm) pad. It is the cordless version of the ETS 125 REQ. It fits comfortably in one hand and is light enough for sanding vertical surfaces or overhead.
It has a brushless EC-TEC motor, Multiple Material Control (MMC) electronics and step-less variable speed. A balanced vibration stop is built in, and the grip is textured and rubberized. The Jetstream design removes dust efficiently, either into the included LongLife dust bag or through a connected Festool dust extractor.
The sander runs cordless or corded. On battery, it runs for about 30 minutes. You can then swap the battery or plug an AC adapter into the battery slot and keep sanding from a wall outlet. It uses the ERGO style battery, which is different from other Festool cordless tool batteries, so a drill battery won't work.
