Yes, but cars have very powerful motors. Even a washing machine has a v= ery complex control unit.

And with any luck if there is a button to lock the trigger that gets pushed into your hand also. I am depressed by this constant discrimination of people of left handedness. It has to stop.
A powder actuated Hilti would be more fun. They are probably illegal in the UK though.
It would already be locked if One had chosen to use it. The locking action would be unlikely to be engaged accidentally.
If you feel strongly about the discrimination then an approach to people like Eclipse might be worthwhile. The basic problem is the flute.
Personally though I think you would get a more immediate effect with Prozac.

They sell them on their UK website.

Stop cross posting! Are you talking portable tools or mains powered ones here? The current limiting could be done, and as I recall, in battery devices used to be, as the older batteries did not like huge currents being drawn from them until they themselves got hot. Not actually noticed what goes on thes4e days, but I'd have thought like you, it would by now be standard. mains stuff on the other hand is almost impossible to stall unless you start rotating yourself! Either that or the motor is crap to start with! Brian
The cost of basic protection is far less than replacing the tool at every turn, however, the cost of this basic protection is offset by increasing the product price to approximate how many unprotected tools you can save via this cheap protection circuit..
SO you have a choice, keep buying the cheap one's that are always changing the design so you can't use old units for parts but if gives you that always new look! Or you can buy the protected one and allow it to get ratty looking, beat up looking, twisted, out of alignment etc.. Now think of this from a used car salesmans perspective, put a fresh coat of paint on that car with no enigine cyou can sell it everytime..
The same holds true when showing up for a job with sparkling new tools which may give them the impression that you are a neat freak and that impresses the customers because they no absolutely nothing about what you are really selling!

I post to all applicable groups. Stop removing my crossposts.
Mains.
You can stall an angle grinder quite easily, just twist it slightly in the concrete you're cutting.

The thing is, if you sell an unprotected tool, how many get broken withi= n a month by someone being clumsy or making a mistake, costing you the m= anufacturer a lot of money in replacements? I bought an =A380 strimmer = and got a free one in 2 weeks when I stalled it.

Do you need a license? We needed one for some conduit we were running so I sent one of my maintenance guys up to the rental place to pick one up. He came back empty handed. It seems there was a short safety quiz before they would rent one to cover their ass. Problem was my guy couldn't read and they weren't doing a verbal quiz.
That's a good way to get the disc to explode and throw bits into your flesh and eyes. Carry on!
So your hands are perfectly steady then?
Of course they are. They only allow dull knives, too (see: James Wilkinson Sword).
