$99 is still a good deal even with the battery but I need to charge it so its too bad.
I guess this deal only works if you already have an existing battery and charger.

Otherwise, at $99, I can also check the dremel.

I have both the M12 RA & straight die grinders. To me the straight die grinder is not an alternative to a rotary tool like a Dremel.
Rotary tools max out at 1/8" & there are tons of accessories (bits) for them. They're more for detailed work as you can grip the tool like a pencil close to the nose when needed.
The M12 straight die grinder you can't cause the power switch is a paddle/lever like air die grinders. So when holding the tool your hand is far away from the spindle & you lack control compared to a rotary tool. You could use 2 hands but that defeats the purpose.
A rotary tool you can turn it on, set the speed (for variable speeed models) & hold the tool anywhere. The die grinders you have to hold the paddle switch for it to stay on.
I use my M12 straight die grinder more for metal work, carbide burrs, grinding stones, cut off wheel. I have a cordless Dremel which the basically the same as the M12 rotary tool and it gets used for different purposes.
The Bosch still takes first place for handheld imo, but you have to get them from outside North American market.
I haven't tried the newest cordless dremels, snd I won't. They went full on ridiculous making them use a new 12v battery, that still is not for sale on its own, AFAIK.
