That sucks! I’d love it if they made a brushless version with the flex head. I’m surprised other brands haven’t got a similar design

A spade?

Thanks it’s been a while but I’m hoping to post a little more consistently going forward. I think it might be teak also. A shame it had to come up but the reasons will be clear in the future

⁠nice. If you’re feeling ambitious could glue a bunch of them up to make desktops or something? Although you’d need access to a bunch of woodworking tools

@alol-alol that’s a great idea 💡 Butcher block style table would look epic!

The lever is moving a cam so it's got a little play at the end of the travel. The tool is locked in by the halfway point. I think the play is to make it easier for you to get your fingers under to operate the lever.

Small screw on the back of I remember

Sometimes you get lucky!

You’re welcome. There’s so much tension you almost feel like you’re going to break it.

@@designerbuilds exactly! I pulled it and stopped as I was thinking. “That’s gonna snap” lol.

It does move a little with all the vibrations as many people have seen from my video but it’s so tight to begin with that even with that little movement it’s not going anywhere!

@@designerbuilds yeah that’s true. Need a crowbar lol. I’ve not used it yet. Only got it yesterday with the brushless grinder. Another two tools to the arsenal. The wife wasn’t happy 😅. I must have 13-15 Ryobi tools now lol

That’s one hell of a collection! The bright green doesn’t help to hide them much 😅

You bet!

Thanks! I show that it’s not detecting on the green flex that’s not live. The plug sockets in the wall are still energised even if the plug is not inserted and the switch is off because some of them are on a ring. It has its uses as it gives the ability to see where live cables might exist inside walls without having to make any holes or open anything up.

I didn’t tighten the frontside nut enough. The tool can take varying thickness tools so be sure to tighten it to avoid it working loose!

It will trigger when it is near AC voltage. Some sockets are connected further down the row and supplied by this socket so the socket itself isn’t live but the wiring behind can still be energised

@@designerbuilds thanks for explaining

Felt like 200 years! I was worried about cutting the radiator pipe so I went for the scenic route

Works great with plasterboard

The motor uses carbon brushes which can spark. This doesn’t happen with tools that use brushless motors

Glad it helped! The official videos are so bad. Always some happy looking person cutting a twig or something

Thank you!

Sharp eyes! I commented on this in another thread

That’s what it says on the box

Just had a look and the model I have is the R18MT-0 and the one you are talking about is the RMT18-0. That’s very confusing!

You’re welcome! They’re all pretty useless manuals… good for making test cuts on 😂

Hope it’s working well for you

Same I just bought one and mine doesnt have that option. I got the brushless motor and the only other one I saw had the brushed motor. So now I'm wondering where they got it from

I googled the model number and the results seem to show a version with a pivoting head and a fixed head. Not sure why Ryobi would have two different tools under the same model number

Just had a look and the model I have is the R18MT-0 and the one you are talking about is the RMT18-0. That’s very confusing!

Unboxing means, taking out of the box. It's assumed any handyman can insert a battery basically into anything without instructions. I'd suggest, get an electrician!

I could make a killing if I charged by the hour with cuts like this 😂

Search Google for a "Japanese tooth multitool saw blade".

@@designerbuilds thanks mate 👍🏾

I wish we had some of the brands here in the UK. Ryobi is one of the lower cost brands here.

I picked this up from Ryobi online as part of a bundle deal they had

Totally agree, very bad advice

Agreed, but they have some practical use to detect voltage in some harder to access spots

Amazing! I use the pen all the time

Do these reliably pick up a live signal from a cable that's plugged in to a live socket? For example if wanting to check that a device actually has power running through it (when checking if it could possibly be faulty) rather than just the socket? I'm assuming that's the sort of thing you've done with that cable test?

Yes it would work for that

@@designerbuilds thank you for the information, just gone and ordered from screwfix to give it a try, many thanks

Cheers Chris, let me know how it works out!

Why not?

😂 Now that I think about it, I should have cut away from the pipe instead of towards. Next time!

It’s a euro model cheaper to buy off a euro business that ships to the US.

I’ve seen people buying ryobi ride-on mowers for less than that

Now I know what to do next time!

Did they cover it under warranty?

Hi just purchased the impactor in you video it any good ??

It’s good for it’s price. I have used it for driving big screws and noticed it is much better with a larger battery like the 5ah

I just got this one so taking a first look at it before I get a chance to try it out. Thanks for watching
