  • I've been designing and 3D printing power stations for Ryobi 18V One+ batteries for several years. I think RYOBI has started listening to us. Their latest product provides 12V at 10A to a cigarette lighter socket. It also has a 30W USB-C Power Delivery port, 2.4A 5V USB-A ports, and 18W USB fast charge ports. It has a small LED light and a nice hook for carrying.
    I used a 9Ah (162Wh) battery to test the unit. At full power (10A), it ran for an hour and provided 115Wh of power. Unfortunately it doesn't have a built-in charger like the new 150W Inverter/Charger. This will be great for running CPAP machines, Cooler/Freezers, and other 12V devices under 120W. Great for Camping!
    Here are things I used to test:
    * Ryi12VBGVNM ( www.ryobitools.com/products/d... )
    * RYOBI 9Amp battery ( amzn.to/3kNwS2u )
    * 24Liter 40W heater/cooler ( amzn.to/3ZkIid4 )
    * 44Q ICECO 12V Cooler/freezer/fridge ( amzn.to/3mgA07g )
    * Load tester ( amzn.to/3ycBan8 )
    * USB-C decoy trigger ( amzn.to/3Jmvcql )
    * USB-A decoy trigger ( amzn.to/3JcwUdy )
    * Iphone Seek Infrared Camera ( amzn.to/41O7NFs )
    * CPAP 12V adapter ( amzn.to/3Y9RMIu )

    Aside from not charging and the unregulated 12v output, that is one of the coolest adapters Ryobi has put out. The unregulated output is especially disappointing because the difference in cost between the buck converter they used and one with regulated 13.8v output is just pennies. 😕

      It's interesting that the Voltage at 10A remained at 11.4V the whole duration. They must be trying to regulate it. I've seen other powerstations that have this "sag". That's why I prefer they start at 13.8V. I used short heavy gage stranded copper wire for the test. So I don't think it was that.

    I purchased a Ryobi converter for one reason. I care for an individual who uses a power assist chair/recliner. The sub-station blew a transformer and the power went off for 4 hours and the person was in a recliner position with no way of getting the chair to move into an upright power assist. I plugged the chair into the chair and was able to assist the person out of the chair.

    The unregulated 12v is big letdown. I get the feeling they give us the bare minimum features on new products (the 40v power station - so many flaws) to see if it sells/what people dont like about it, then they come out with a version 2 at a higher price.
    For example the new 150w inverter charger has a 30w USB C for charging, alot of folding solar panels have a 45w USB C port, So I can see them coming out with version 2 that supports 45w USB C with a fancy marketing hook- "now with 50% faster charging".

    • @zeruty
      @zeruty Рік тому +2

      Isn't the new 150w one the new version 2? That includes USB-C when they should have included it on the first 150 watt inverter (that HD is currently pushing)

    Just recently bought one and the USB C PD outlet cause my new Samsung phone and tablet to constantly charge/no charge/charge/no charge. The other USB outlets work fine, and I did not try the 12 volt outlet. Ryobi tech support had not heard of the 30w PD outlet issue and so I went back to Bunnings to exchange it. A new one did exactly the same, so I took a refund instead. I have the two 150w inverters, one came with a solar panel and can charge the ryobi battery via USB C. They have both worked really well so far.

    Thanks for your review. If I run a 12V device from this power source are there any pros/cons to using the lighter socket vs the USB-C PD port? Does the USB-C automatically detect the required voltage or do I need a special cable or adapter to deliver 12V?

    • @robdewhirst7525
      @robdewhirst7525 Рік тому +4

      USB PD requires negotiated power on both ends. You need a PD "decoy" module to get precisely 12V negotiated from USB PD. if you want 12V and only one of the ends is USB PD, you are better off using a cigarette lighter pigtail and making your own adapter to something like XT30.

  • @chriswatchingyt
    @chriswatchingyt Рік тому +2

    Very good video. Question about the cpap. I always thought it could only run on pure sinewave otherwise it shortens the lifespan of the device. How well does it handle the stepped sinewave?

  • @davidr9876
    @davidr9876 Рік тому +3

    How is the run time on the CPAP compared to the 150w AC inverter? I expect more parasitic loss due to converting to AC so if you have a DC plug for the cpap, I'd expect this to be better. Same for phone or laptop charging since the other Ryobi charger/inverter has the AC plug hot all the tim
