the more I watch your channel, the more Ryobi stuff I buy, great reviews appreciate the time and effort
Thanks for this! I was trying to decide!
Great size and VERY powerful!
Dude! You just made up my mind 🤟🔥
Both are 80cfm, but I bet they have different water lift ratings.
Great comparison video.
I had that 18v one for 4 years. Finally gave up the ghost last month. Feel i got my moneys worth because they had a deal where you get a 9ah battery gor 30 bucks over the bare tool at the time. When back a corded ridged this time.
The 6 gal kit is $95 on Direct Tool Outlet factory blemished (plus shipping). If you live nearby you can get the bare tool blemished for like $68 or $50 refurbished.
As a DIY'er and just for home garage use I am going with the 18V, for the smaller size, and I have plenty of 18V batteries on charge so it very easy just to pop a charged 'bat-ree' on it.
I might go for the 40V since I already have 3 batteries.
I bought the 18v one tested here and have been surprised by how good it is. It hits a sweet spot between weight, maneuverability, suction strength, noise level, durability, and price that is tough to beat. The only downside is the battery life. But if you operate it knowing that you’re going to have to change a 4amp battery in 15 minutes (my average runtime with short stops in between) and you have an army of batteries at your disposal (which every veteran Ryobi owner has, lol) it’s not a big deal.
home depot was running a sale on ryobi. so now I have 2 tools (grinder and sawzaww) and 3 batteries. I think the 18v is gonna be my next purchase. however those 40v batteries might come in handy when I buy the lawnmower in a couple years as well. so i'll have to look into that as well.
A lot of people said use the 9.0 ah they last over an hour
@@thebboy922 18V?
@@JUANRAMONROBLES yes but the 9.0 ah I had the 4.0ah and the power wasn’t that good
Ridgid 18 voltnxt 9 gallon shop vac is my favorite and being clearances out
Also LSA warranty
Un-covered is a larger load, just listen to the motor speed up when you cover the hose.
Yes I was going to comment the same thing. Centrifugal pumps are under load when they are moving air or fluid
The air outlet for the 18v is actually in the trim of the lid. Not where u put the rag, check it out and it’s a 5 gallon not 6 lol. Sometimes I wish I could talk to the videos lol. I’m a big Ryobi fan and I love your videos
It's a 6 gallon. I still have the box for mine.
Does Ryobi make a Vacuum that I can use corded, not just cordless
2:10 pop it off to replace them? Well please show me where they sell the replacements.
I used to work with a guy that couldn't pronounce his R's, but all his tools were ryobi. I used to chuckle to myself everytime he said it. Wyobi. Lol
18 v ryobi w/d is my # 1 rather than getting some thing different
the 18volt has noticeably more power with a 9AH BATTERY VS THE 6AH as i have both batteries
The 9ah battery is also closer in energy storage. The 18v 4ah battery stores 72wh compared to the 40v (36v actually) 4ah battery which stores 144wh. The 18v 9ah battery stores 162wh and should have been the one compared to the 40v 4ah battery.
wish they would just put the 40v motor on the 18v vac. Ryobi 40v is one of the best high voltage values out there. My 40v leaf blower is a winner for not needing 2 cycle fuel. My 40v push mower is great for tight areas around my house that my riding mower cant get.
Yea I like the design of the 18v but have the 40v system
I mean, I've already got a corded Shop Vac for my shop and I'm not going to start lugging 40v batteries to job sites when I already carry a bag full of 18v batteries. I have to assume most others are in a similar situation. The 40v seems like a good vacuum but it fills a very narrow niche: People who primarily have 40v Ryobi batteries and don't have a corded vac.
So I already have the 40v lawn mower and weed eater, with four batteries. My corded Vac use to belong to my father back when he did a lot of contracting work. I think that I follow that narrow niche. Just as a note I was scared of my own corded vacuum when I had to clean up a flood in the basement. Having the batts I’d be willing to get this one…. Small note. I already own the 18 v one and I’m happy with using that for flood clean ups.
Many people have 40v yard tools. I don't see this as a niche item. Though I think for the cost, going with a superb corded vac makes more sense.
@@mr.c6674 For one thing, the niche I was referring to was two part: people with 40v tools _and_ who don't have a corded vac. For another, yes, battery powered yard tools are still niche - especially when broken down by brand and voltage. It's a growing niche but it's still a niche.
Furthermore, shop vacs aren't typical yard tools. It's not nearly as much of a hassle to run a cord for a shop vac as it is for a hedge trimmer, lawnmower, etc. People rarely vacuum their lawn. As you said, for the cost, a really nice corded vac wins hands down.
I do exist!
Which do you like better the 3 gallon or the 6 gallon for home use. Cars, drains ect?
I like both however the 6 is more versatile and proves to be more useful!
i like ryobi and have several tools but the shop vac was a total fail and disappointment--could not get the air fiiter to fit in the spot, very difficult and if i have to mess with it for hours each time i have to use it...forget it, it is going back, poorly designed as to how to fit the air filter into the top and bottom areas at the same time
Did you change out the switch on the 18v? I have that same vacuum and it is a pain to turn it on and off
No, it's the original switch
I wish they made a corded one? Is it possible to use that like a hybrid with their fans? They allow either or.
i wish... they do hybrid shits on lights but not vacs???? i sont get that, i woulda copped one or both of these already if they were hybrids.. javing that option is such a game changer.. honestly i wouldn't be mad at all if ryobi (n every brand tbh) figured out a way to make every one of their tools / accessories hybrids..
lol i know ive worked w many a tools next to an unused outlet n just was like "shit,, on my 4th 6ah hp battery in this vac, 2nd on the recip saw... n this outlets just laughin at me..."
at which point i proceed to kick the outlet for teasing me,, and my boss sends me home for being drunk on the job..
They have an adapter that you stick where the battery goes with a short cord for you to plug into an extension cord.
They make them for all the common brand power tools so you can kinda make any of the cordless tools hybrid and corded if you want to.👍
Are your able to use s dust bag in the 6 gallon one?
Great question and im not sure?
The 40v runs for 60mins with the 7.5 or the 12AH
That's a $300+ premium to pay for an hour of run time. If you need to run a shop vac for that long at a time, just buy a corded one. They run indefinitely and you don't have to replace the batteries every few years.
Taken from the Home Depot site "Up to 60 minutes of runtime with a 40V 6.0 Ah battery". Like he said though, that's not real world.
Ryobi needs larger batteries. 12ah 18 volt and a 15ah 40 volt.
I have had both of these units and am not really impressed. I've been researching the Rigid units and from everything I've seen they seem to be superior plus they have a lifetime warranty. I've been buying Ryobi for 20 years but I think it's time I look at other brands..
Im changing from rigid to ryobi because they have more tools.
considering ridgids 9 gal model is half the price as the 40v ryobi yet same power specs, you may be right
Ryboi is usually solid for a DIY or semi pro, but some items are hit or miss, and they just straight up drop the ball. That said, I had the 18v vac and while it has some creative features and ideas, it was a huge disappointment for me. Probably among the worst of any Ryobi tool I have, and I've got about 50-60 ryobi tools. Just underwhelming across the board. Was happy when it broke after less than probably 3 hours of use, so I could throw it away without any guilt.
@@kevinmach730 I've had zero problems with my vacuum, what exactly are you unhappy with?

Ridgid 9 gallon 18 volt nxt is better than those 2 and $96 dollars as of my comment
I have bad luck with my rigid one. Maybe it’s just me, had to exchange it once stopped working and eats the hell out of a battery
@@grahamplumbing541 yes cordless vacums eats batteries fast glad I have bug batteries so runtime is no issue for me
I know Rigid had great corded vacs but never bothered to look at their cordless. I know Ryobi is flooding the cordless market with a bunch of new vac options but ,outside of the 18v tested here which I own and love, this is one of the few markets where you may want to consider another brand (I.e.Rigid)
@@brakecheck5354 cordless one Is awesome I reccomend you check it out if your in the ridgid line
If Ryobi would make a 4-6 gallon vac with a 40v motor they would have a much better product and more maneuverability. Most people don't like the huge vacuum cleaners. Its only logical to make a smaller vac cordless because the whole point of a battery powered vac is its maneuverability! Something that has a long run time and fits in the back of an suv easily. It doesn't need to be crazy powerful either. People using these are not needing them for large jobs. The large suction needs should be performed with a plug in.
Both vacuums suck ha ha
Why
@@livefreeandtoolon because they’re supposed to they are vacuum cleaners
Good pun.
