Rechargeable coffee grinder

Am I correct that there is no such thing as a rechargeable battery operated coffee grinder on the market? We have rechargeable batteries running all sorts of power tools so power can't be the issue. I see that someone patented it only in 2002
https://www.google.com/patents/US6377022

and there's another product "patent pending" "The EasyGrind"Â* - Next Generation

Of course youtube has videos of people attaching drill bits to their manual coffee grinders too

I've had to make do with a wall-mounted manual grinder that requires only one hand

Re: Rechargeable coffee grinder

Just get a regular electric grinder and a small inverter to run it.

you do realise that a Japanese grinder is manual which means you have to actually do more than push a button right

You are not correct. There are plenty of those grinders for sale. But they are mostly marketed as "electric pepper mill grinders". But some do say "coffee" for those who could not figure out that it does not matter what you grind.
