' afternoon, been grinding brackets under the car all morning and now my ears are full of metal shavings. Had to buy a new grinder in between, every angle grinder I have ever had the ****ing switch button breaks, how hard is it to make an on/off switch that doesn't fall apart???

Avoid buying stuff made in chyna. Last weekend I refurbished a 60 year old bathroom light switch (pull chord), it only needed a bit of cleaning. UK made, from solid materials, brass and nylon internals. No wear at all. Good for at least another 60 years. The standard new offerings in all the usual mainstream outlets are made of crap and guarantee to fail in no time. Bought some new spot lights, paid top money for decent quality but all the bulbs (bought separately) and "guaranteed for 15000 hrs and with a 25 year life) are made in PRC. I expect them to need replacing within 18 months
 
Put me battery on charge yesterday and overnight, cos it got a bit low. Let it settle this morning and reconnected it. Now pulsing and glowing like a nuclear reactor :). Hope it doesn't tear the engine from its mountings when I switch the ignition on :eek:.

I checked the broken one Black and Decker, Slough (made in the PRC) New one Makita, made in Romainia, I'm not sure how much better that is. I'm sure all the components are made in China anyway. Its hard to find anything that's not made in China anymore.
