About the LED Nail Grinder
A grinder files the nail down a little at a time, so it is easier to stop before the quick than with clippers. The LED in the head lights up the nail, and on light-coloured nails you can see the pink quick inside.
It comes with three caps: an open drum for fast grinding, a slot for small pets and a guard for large dogs. The diamond drum is replaceable. Two speeds, 7000 and 8000 rpm, and a digital display show the setting and the battery.
The 1200 mAh battery charges in about two hours through USB-C and runs for about two hours. The grinder is 4.5 × 16.8 cm and comes in grey-white or black-white.
New to grinding? Let your pet sniff the grinder while it is off, then switch it on near them without touching the nails.

Questions
Will it hurt my pet?
Grinding does not pinch the nail like clippers can. Touch each nail for a second or two, move on, and stop well before the quick. If your pet is anxious, do one or two nails a day.
Can I use it on cats?
Yes. Use the small-pet cap and the lower speed.
How long does the battery last?
About 120 minutes per charge, and a full charge takes about 2 hours through USB-C.
Can I see the quick on black nails?
Not always. On dark nails, grind in thin layers and stop when you see a darker dot in the centre of the cut surface.
