I haven't heard a case of a 3403 having TS yet. I've only seen one person really mention thermal shutdown issues with the Metabo, but FWIW he now owns two 3403's. I don't think he owns two of them for any reason other than the fact he likes them A LOT.

I have a Metabo,but I haven't gotten a chance to give it a run through.
