I bought a Klutch drill and reciprocating saw off of a Northern Tool deal here. They didn't ship the drill but did send me 3 batteries and 2 chargers instead of 1 charger and 2 batteries that I ordered. I called and talked to a very helpful rep who told me to keep the extras and overnighted the drill to me. They've been great tools and I'm sold on their customer service.

When I put the grinder into cart, go into your cart and the free battery was in there.

Northern Tool has an incredible sale on their housebrand Klutch cordless 20v tools.
https://www.northerntool.com/search?s=kliq
This deal is unbeatable for cordless tools! These KLiQ Klutch 20v tools are battery compatible with HyperTough cordless tools at WalMart.
Chervon, the owner of EGO, SKIL, FLEX, and the Asian market brand Devon, makes these tools. They also manufacture the 24V Kobalt tools at Lowe's.
All of these tools are cheaper if you have a Northern Tool Advantage Membership, which is $40 the first year, and then $40 thereafter, but includes a $25 gift card, so $15/yr.
With the membership, the grinder above is $34.29 with the free 4 Ahr battery. An extra 14.25% off.

Here are a couple of examples of the membership prices:
$14.99, $10 off, Klutch KLiQ 20V Rapid Battery Chargerhttps://www.northerntool.com/prod...er-5797426
$27.57, $42.42 off, Klutch Compact 3/8in. Impact Wrench, KLiQ 20V, 205 Ft./Lbs.https://www.northerntool.com/prod...ly-5796909

The Klutch Surface Conditioning Tool and 4-1/2in. Angle Grinder have machined spiral bevel gears inside their gearboxes and 6 selectable speeds. The Klutch 4-1/2in./5in. Angle Grinder has what appear to be powdered metal gears in its gearbox, and they are only slightly spiraled. They look cheaper to me and may not hold up as long. The 4-1/2in./5in has a more powerful motor, probably 20-30% more, and three speeds.

The Die Grinder, the 4-1/2in. Angle Grinder, and the Surface Conditioning Tool all use the same motor/controller/handle, just different pinions and gearboxes. The Die Grinder is direct drive, the 4-1/2in. Angle Grinder has an 11-tooth pinion and 36-tooth bevel, the Surface Conditioning Tool has a 6-tooth pinion and a 53-tooth bevel, the 4-1/2in./5in. Angle Grinder has a 16-tooth, almost non-spiral pinion and a 36-tooth bevel.

The Northern website is not the best, and you may need to go back and forth on their pages to find the discounted price. Sometimes the items page shows only the list price, whereas the item will show up elsewhere (cart, KLiQ page, etc.), discounted.

I have been a Ridgid 18v guy for many years, but started buying Hercules a couple of years back after discovering their 5" cordless portaband (which I love) and their 100ft.lbs. non-impact 1/2" drill. There is a KliQ 5" portaband for $136.49 w/membership and a free battery. 2-Year warranty (Hercules is 5-yr over-the-counter).

And last but not least, I really like their grinders. They are small, light, brushless, and variable speed, which is fantastic for safety and control. I just wish they had electronic brakes... which, by the way, the $40ish Bauer right-angle grinder at Harbor Freight does have. None of my Ridgids have brakes, that sucks.

Great post.

Do you know if the batteries are compatible between the EGO, SKIL, and/or FLEX brands?

Says they're compatible with Walmart Hypertough in the first paragraph. Google AI can tell you the rest. You probably could buy an adapter that allows you to use another brand battery.

They are not. None of those are interchangeable. Only HyperTough 20v and KLiQ (Klutch) 20v are interchangeable.

It would be nice if it included a charger.

For $35, you want a charger? Okay, well, it is $15. I'm not poking you, but this is some crazy pricing. This is even better than the Harbor Freight Bauer or Hercules "buy batteries, and/or charger, get a tool for free" deals at the close of COVID. $50, you have a cordless grinder with a 4Ahr battery and charger.
The only charger you will find for any power tool battery that is $15 is a wall-wart unit that takes 10 hours to charge. This is an actual charger, though it is not a high-current model. I bought three of the chargers, two 8 Ahr batteries for $60 each, and a whole bunch of grinders, a die grinder, and a surface conditioner. I'm tickled. And I have been buying through Slickdeals for decades. This is my first posting of a deal. I started dumpster diving tech deals with Anandtech hotdeals forum back in the 90's.

Klutch and Hyper Tough 20V batteries are very similar, but are not perfectly interchangeable. The Hyper Tough batteries require deeper pin insertion before they will make electrical contact, and so don't always make good contact with some Klutch tools. For example, the Klutch paddle switch grinder does not completely seat its contacts when a battery is fully inserted - the Klutch battery handles that fine and works perfectly in it, but the Hyper Tough battery doesn't. Klutch batteries should always make good contact with Hyper Tough tools, though.

I bought an impact from them, awhile back, with 2 batteries. The batteries arrived in a box, by themselves, one day. Then the impact arrived the next day. So don't be surprised if the battery and grinder come in two separate boxes, on two separate days.
