Absolutely terrible tool.
A year ago i purchased a battery operated 500 series grinder. Its the most hopeless piece of equipment its ever been my misfortune to buy. It is SO underpowered it can only just sharpen a Redhead match stick, but not much more. I'm an experienced weekend handyman type but I've had to replace it with a real tool, one that can actually do even half a job. Absolutely terrible tool.
Purchased in February 2021 at Bunnings Warehouse for A$69.00.

Probably one of the most useful tools in my shed
I purchased the model before the X Change, brand new on eBay, but operates on the same 18V batteries and was extremely surprised at the usefulness of this little gem. It came, as they do, without a battery, but Bunnings had a special price on 2 18v 3Ah batteries and a charger, so I bought the kit. Firstly, I was aware that I'd not have anywhere near the power of a corded grinder, so was pleasantly surprised at it's ability to cut almost anything that I used it on. Naturally, roofing iron was a breeze, a knife through butter couldn't have done ...Read more
a better job, and the ease with which it did it brought a smile. Half inch steel rod wasn't a problem as long as it didn't pressure the cutting disc, actually as little pressure as possible is the way to use it. The two batteries are perfect, one on charge, one on the job. At a little over $50 I consider it money very well spent. Thanks Ozito, you've done it again
Purchased in July 2021 for A$55.00.

Ozito Power X - Disappointing
Disappointing! The grinder constantly shuts off when put under low load conditions. For example cutting through 1/2” round steel, the grinder will stall after getting only 2mm through with low cutting pressure. Brand new with fully charged 4ah battery. I called Ozito and attempted to discuss the issue but the call centre person seemed to have no interest in the actual issue and suggested that I return the unit to Bunnings for a swap over. This kind of customer service is great but I expect some interest in the actual fault before brushing me off for a swap over. I swapped the unit over and the new unit is no different. Annoying.

Turns off every 8.5 seconds and low battery life
This grinder has been very disappointing - from day 1 it has turned off roughly every 8.5-15 seconds during use and requires charging for an hour to get 15 minutes of this stop-start use on the largest battery in the shop (4.0) Definitely do not recommend, will be returning it tomorrow.

Really great unit.
Have used and abused this unit for about a year. Have cut and ground metals, vinyl flooring, tiles and used a flappy disc to shape and sand timbers and sharpen mower blades. By far this I'm my most used and abused ozito x change item.
The soft start is great, the unit feels great in the hand and it is adequate as long as you allow the tool to to the work and not force it. Battery fade sucks with the exchange range, but anyone worth their pay check should be able to get great results with this little beauty.

Ozito Power Xchange cordless PXAGS-500
Uses same batteries as the blower drill and whipper sniper I have .
The assembly instructions are not clear with no diagrams of how the blade and washers are fitted correctly. This is risky and not good for such a dangerous tool.
There are copious safety directions and warnings but I found better advice from Youtube. The Ozito Youtube site didn't advise about a safety shield.
The box did not include a cutter, which I bought it for. Most people would want a small cutter..

Questions & Answers
Alan S.asked
They're having issues returned the 125 brushless one 3 times - switch is locking and Bunnings at a loss to get it working. Then took the non-brushless 115 one and it refuses to work after a while - pitty loved them but really something majorly faulty with this batch?

Alan I have the model before the PXAGS-500 (batteries still fit), and I've had nothing but joy from the unit, it's possibly the best tool in my workshop. Maybe Ozito "updated" when it wasn't necessary. I cut a complete circumference on a 5000 gallon galv water tank with two batteries, the second one still had two red lights showing

I am having trouble turning my angle grinder on and off.
The switch appears to be jammed. I leave the switch on, then turn on
from the power point.
LeanMachineasked
Internal locking up forced me to disassemble this PXAGS-500 Ozito Angle Grinder as I had lost my original receipt. The device opens up OK but there is still something around the armature causing locking up in the forward direction, but revolves in the reverse direction. But there is no way to get at the brushes without special tools to remove the armature from it's housing. Appears to be a throw-away unit when the brushes wear out. I will be looking at the brushless unit if I stay with ozito.
