    Hi Dave,
    On our ranch we have some Ryobi tools too. Most of those, really aren't tools, but lights and fans. They work well. My favorite is a small chemical sprayer. That one is really amazing for what you get. As far as the others, Makita and Milwaukee are our choices. Keep the great videos coming!!

    dude, you are going to get a lot of views lol just for this video. I like the fact you are using the low end tools because those are the tools people complain about all the time. I mean, yes, they are DIY, but we have come this far that they need to up all their tools eventually even if they are the non HP brushless line.

    Ryobi branded bits and blades are some of the worst imaginable. Would definitely recommend throwing them straight in the bin and getting some better quality blades.

    I've got mostly Makita tools, but I do have a sprinkling of Ryobi stuff in there. Sometimes you need a tool that you don't use too often and you don't want to break the bank. I am considering getting the framing nailer, since I usually have a few Ryobi batteries with me. Glad to see it's decent.

    Hey you should check out the ryobi one+ Brushless HP (high performence) series. In that range they have a better drill and even a 4 mode impact driver. Now don't worry they still use the same batterys so you woulden't have to buy new batterys just need to buy the tools. the only down side is they don't have a HP comdo kit.

    • @PickledOnions-v1p
      @PickledOnions-v1p День тому

      Agreed. Ryobi brushless would be a very interesting comparison. As I'm DIY and renovating, for cordless I only use tools from their brushless range. If a brushless tool isn't available, I get a second hand corded professional tool (i.e Makita, DeWalt etc)

    For those kids playing along at home, as per the manual set the multitool at the slowest speed setting when using it for sanding. For this model this equates to 10,000OPM which is about the same as a standard sander, otherwise you will start damaging your hook and loop interface.

  • @KristoforLawson
    @KristoforLawson День тому

    Great video! It definitely makes a difference if you get their brushless high performance tools vs the ones in the standard kit. And the batteries can make a huge difference to performance as well. I basically just use the biggest battery I have on hand 9ah because it gives so much extra power to the tools and I believe the new high performance batteries are even better. Every ryobi brushless tool I’ve picked up has been great though, I’ve got one of their brushless grinders and it’s awesome, used it to cut tons of pavers etc and no issues at all. but yeah the brushed options which I think they include in the kits have been average. I also think the framing gun in Aus is slightly different to the US model as I believe it does have the bump fire mode in the US but for some reason it’s not on the version we got.

    Good video. It would be good if you could try some of their other High-Performance tools with the High-Performance Batteries. I had to buy some tools quickly when working interstate and was pleasantly surprised. I still have them now. Not as good as my Milwaukee's but I was un-expectantly surprised. Be interesting to see if others think the same.

  • @dabmanian_devil

    A few points of mention:
    First i assume your in like Australia or New Zealand correct?
    On the framing nailer you mentioned it dpesnt have bump fire cuz its a diy-er tool...
    Now correct me if im wrong, but isnt bump fire tech banned or illegal in your neck of the woods?
    I follow tools and stuff and he has nailers from all the brands and the only way he gets bump fire is by buying the American version of the tools (maybe Japanese version but i feel japan also bans bump fire but idk) and I'm pretty sure he said its cuz in Aus. Or NZ theyve bamned rapid mode (bump fire)
    Next, as others have mentioned, you should have gone with the full hp lineup as they are their brushless top tier ryobi tools. And they are definitely a massive increase in performance and power. I use their hp tools and theu work for me on the job every day for a good 3 years now. Never had a tool die or break (that wasnt like accidentally run over lol) ok me in these 3 years, and ive never had a job or task that i couldnt accomplish using the hp tools.
    As you mentioned w the multi tool n sawzall , i do know that brushed models are crap, but the hp versions are miles ahead of em. I saw someone get that brushed sawall and on the first day he used it, he burned the motor out. But i own the hp versions of both and they've still held up for 3 + years.
    Lastly, just pointing out the fact that out of all the ryobi tools you got here, the only one you seemed to actually like and appears to perform the best was the framing nailer.. the only ryobi hp tool that you got. That alone should give you a sign that the hp brushless line is def worth looking into.. at the very least, is certainly better than the regular ryobi tools.

    I'm not in the trades anymore, but do quite a bit of DIY and woodworking still. I can't get on with Ryobi. Their brushless stuff is slightly better but still not great considering they start approaching real tool price. They're probably OK if you're barely going to use them, like a couple of times a year, but they're too frustrating otherwise. They've often got cool novel features and decent ergonomics but just don't stand up to any real use any time I've used them.
    Stanley Fatmax are a similar price, often cheaper in the brushless range, and handle abuse much better. Then you've got AEG, Dewalt and Makita which are really not that much more expensive, often have great redemption bonuses and for the latter two, price matching, as they're not exclusive to Bunnings.

    Check out the 18g brad nailer for arcs,skirts and small trims its the best and the nails are dirt cheap!

      Hey mate, obviously I'm not Dave, but Ryobi do brushless versions of all the tools Dave tested in the video called "One Plus HP". Slightly more expensive, but more powerful and better battery life. Still a fair bit cheaper than the professional brands. Otherwise, AEG is really well priced for a good quality tool as well.

    I am not a fan of Ryobi anymore. The drills just don't seem to have the power. My mate has Ryobi because of the battery system however I find that the grinder with a blade for cutting cement sheeting is frustrating. The tool stops as you cut as if the battery is flat however that is not the case as 4 bars continue to show.
