Air or Electric tools??

My wife bought me an angle grinder for my B-day and she bought me an air operated one, but said if I wanted she can return it and get an electric. I have a 20 gal compressor and plenty of hose so the air one will work, but I have never really used many air powered tools.

Whats your choice, air or electric.

This will likley come up again with future presents so its best to get it sorted out now.
