I’m glad somebody else picked up on that. Voltage is only part of the equation and there are videos on RU-vid that show how a battery’s amperage can improve the performance of tools. This guy is seriously handcuffing the Ryobi by using a battery 1/4 the amperage.
@@Imafriggingoddess i seriously want a test done with the 1st gen brushless hp tools using their old hp batteries with extra contacts and the new hp without the contacts to see if there is a difference, since there is a big difference between the non HP (extra contact) ones and the regular batteries of same size.
@@Imafriggingoddess from my understanding Ryobi claims that it’s because the “HP technology” is in the tool rather than the battery now. Jesus bless y’all.
I have a shed full of Ryobi cordless, all the tools just work, no caveats. And loads of batteries. As a home handyman and wild gardener I reckon buying into Ryobi is great value and good tools.
Im with you. I am a tradesman and have tools of all brands and ryobi hasnt let me down with any tools. Of course i dont use any of the yelloe red or green on my impact driver
@@dankjankings7339 I had the original slow charger for my 36v batteries drop dead. They gave me a fast charger for the difference in cost which was minimal (original charger discontinued). Game changer. I went from feeling a bit miffed that I had to contribute for a replacement to ecstatic, the charger is fantastic. Still a happy camper. Means I have to do more work, but hey.
if you want to be taken seriously you need to improve your impartiality , must have equal batteries, just because that's all you have still doesn't make it equal and why didn't you use the Dewalt to screw the plate down? 2 screws,2 impact drivers? and the alternating bolt tightening and loosening not equal in procession, small differences yes but the devils is in the details, if you want to be taken seriously , act like it
Only have the two 1.5ah Ryobi batteries that came with the kit sorry. I’ll actually be putting the Ryobi up against the Hart, Bauer, and Dewalt Atomic with 1.5ah batteries and a few others when I have time.
@@ClientGraphics I have the 3 speed brushless with the bug batteries and it brings a ton more power than the little batteries. I think it would be a lot closer to the dewalt with comparable batteries.
Ace Hardware has the Dewalt Max XR Drill/Driver kit on sale for 200 bucks. Same kit for the m18 is 399. Seems like and obvious choice to me since I dont do construction.
ClientGraphics.. Cool video. It looked to me like the Ryobi held it's own against a "contractor grade" tool like the Dewalt that also had a higher amp hour battery.. I have a few of Ryobi tools and I have to say that I wanted to hate them but honestly they are actually pretty dang good. I would use them as a "contractor" tool.
I mean you could use it and it would work. I drove in a hand full of drywall screws and all the normal 4 other tests and the vibrations in the handle and trigger are the most compared to any other impact that it just doesn’t work for me with any kind of repeat usage. If it wasn’t for the impact vibrations running into the hand I’d gladly give it 👍👍
Not only did you miss match the batteries you used the weaker battery of the Ryobi to screw in the brackets, weakening it more. - Higher Amp Hour batteries give proven and documented in the manual - better performance
I swear by my ryobi tools plus here's a Lil tip from ya buddy ace.if you call a warranty number in for a rigid milwaukee or ryobi tool depending on witch tool they all three share the same motors an switches the only real difference is in the battery side of the tool.
*Excelente kit **MyBest.Tools** suficiente mente potente y ligero. la luz incorporada en el taladro es muy superior a versiones anteriores que se encuentra cerca del broquero.*
Hey Clientgraphics, FYI, your tests in this vid are not so accurate. If you attempt to take off a nut with impact driver A, and the same lugnut a few seconds later with impact B, it will be an inconsistent test. As you are impacting the bolt/nut, you are heating it up. Thus, prepping the bolt/nut for easier removal. That is why the second impact almost always removes the fastener. Just food for thought when conducting your tests. Pssst, I love your vids. I hope I can win a tool set soon. My pick would be an icon metric ratcheting wrench set 🙂
Heh, yeah I was professionally using TTI made Craftsman cordless drills decades ago, back when they were 7.2V and 9.6V. Usually it's an amateur that needs the pro tool because they don't know how to properly use it and need something as durable as possible to save it from their abuse. What a pro needs more than anything is a high capacity battery or multiple batteries, and a local store with that brand of tool or battery because if something breaks (or gets stolen) you need to get working again asap.
Stinky Cheese exactly. I use my tools to make me money. I have some nice tools some not so nice but they work tools and I also use a lot of ryobi tools. I love ryobi. They make me money. But hey that’s why there is entertainment tool reviews and real tool reviews on RU-vid.
My Ryobi 4ah P238 does 100 ft-lbs lug nuts with ease, but the 1/4" hex to 1/2" socket adapters fail (various brands) after just a few uses. Ordered a Dewalt impact wrench, which is more suited to the application
HA and I thought I was the only one that caught your screw up. How you compared these tools is false. You need equal batteries of same amperage to run a fair and unbiased test. How you used a 5ah battery in the dewalt and a 1.5ah on the HP is not a fair test to say the least it would be much like using a 325 cold cranking amp battery vs a 750 cold cranking amp battery to start your car. It's the amps that feed an electrical motor. So if you wish a fair test.... Use the dewalt with it's battery it was designed for and use the HP battery (of the same ah rating) it was designed for.bet the the ryobi will shine just as strong as the dewalt
Need to have same batteries being used. Also to take lug nuts off I wouldn’t use the 1/4 impact driver with the adapter to take off a lug nut. Use the 1/2 inch impact wrench for both
@ClientGraphics why did you not run the same amp hour battery in each drill? I mean you kept repeating the amp hours. It’s like the easiest thing to do for a fair comparison.
It worked decent. Little more vibration in the hand then I would like but overall a very competitive tool that is finally the size or other major leading power tool brands.
Never given much thought to Ryobi, I would like to see hitachi triple hammer go against this particular model of dewalt, hitachi makes pretty much everything besides tools..... Expensive tools that is.
It would be very easy for Ryobi to beat dewalt, simply put a larger motor in, but the trick is how long the tool lasts. It's funny how misguided people are about continually putting 1/4" impacts head to head when any brand produces more torque than a knowledgeable user should be using with a 1/4" bit drive. That's what 3/8" and larger drive impact wrenches are for. What "beats" a different brand is not the torque, it's how much work you can do with it before it fails.
What makes Ryobi the better choice is many times their products are around 200-400% CHEAPER than Dewalt. Especially the larger 6 piece tool kits. Dewalt isn't the 'be all-do all' for power tools.
Does anybody else love the fact ryobi claims to make affordable quality tools for everyone so they haven't changed the connections on there batteries in over 25 years to prove it.who do they think they are ? Making it so I can put a modern batt 8n my old drill or vice versa. Man Eff those guys man
I have adaptets that let me use dewalt/milwaukee battteries with ryobi tools and viceversa. I have to tell you that i have many tools that i have in ryobi and milwaukee and dewalt.....the difference in these tools are little from ryobi to dewalt but more noticable in milwauke vs ryobi.
U need to do an equal test with both impact wrenches being with equal batteries of course the DeWalt was going to take the bolts out with ease because it had a 5 amp battery where the Ryobi only had a 1.3 amp battery
I was in the market for cordless tools. After hours,days,weeks, months of research I settled in the ryobi brand. Reason is....their battery platform opens up to hundreds of tools without the need to buy a new battery when you replace a tool. Dewalt ( at the time of my research) was priced anywhere from $30-$100 more then the ryobi and they changed up thier batteries or tool battery compartment forcing you to have to buy new batteries. Same with the others...makita, milwaukee bosch etc
With the crazy discounts I’m seeing with the 887, I wouldn’t be surprised, if we see a new xr impact driver this holiday season. It’s been out since 2015! Itself being an update on the 886, that came out In 2013!
Which bothers you more: A: Comparison done with very different battery capacity/size (which will result in up-to 20-30% discrepancy in tool performance). or B: Comments about "A" that incorrectly use the word "amps" to compare battery capacity. (an "amp" is not a measure of capacity)
I think this wasn't meant to be a fair test. It's to highlight the performance of the Ryobi straight out of the box with the included battery which is probably how most individuals buying this kit will use it.
You do not do a test with such a power difference in the batteries. I GUARANTEE you put a 5.0 ah battery in that Ryobi and you will see a HUGE difference.
@@ClientGraphics yeah the 887 is a work horse as long as you don't purposely try to break it lol 😆 like some channels can't get any 887 to survive lol you know who I'm talking about im sure of it good work by the way chris
You can't run them with different batteries for comparison.. make it even with same battery size 1sr. And yes it makes a difference. Ryobi is beast for what you pay and combo that can be used with there other products
I'm no ryobi fan boy or anything but the fact you needed a 20v with 100 dollar price diff from the 18v ryobi plus 1 hp but didn't use the hp battery an still competed against the "professional " grade tool.lol
@@engineer_alv yeah but it would also give you more same consistent power. So yes battery size would be a difference cause you wouldn’t be loosing power like you would with a smaller battery. I call it unfairness. Plus the dewalt is a 20v vs. ryobi 18v big difference their.
Considering you're testing a Ryobi with a 1.5Ah battery which isn't even the HP battery(which is way better for harder tasks) vs a DeWalt with a 5Ah battery which is a bigger battery and more expensive tool it's totally unfair
I was trying to start a RU-vid channel but could not do it and I wanted to know if you would side stress-testing ratcheting wrenches I have all different types wanted to know who's the best
Using a 5ah against a 1.5 ah battery is kinda dumb especially since everyone thinks Dewalt is a pro tool an ryobi is for home owners ? Try a 5ah Dewalt to a 4ah ryobi.iv done home improvement my whole life an when ryobi was blue an yellow they were ok an for Harry home owner consumers but today they are my go to tool brand because of how the battery fit all tools an for the price point you can't beat them.lets not forget what we learn on day 1 it's never about the tool it's about who's hands are operating it so a good worker can do the same job no matter who makes the tools
Upgraded from an older 18v kit. ru-vid.comUgkxW1vOBRCMrgTCDEijzpVzDWsgI-Jm2iQv I independently chose the drill and impact tool, before I came across the kit.I like the 3 speed impact gun. It seems more powerful than my older one, and it can be set to be really gentle. The drill is more appropriately sized for my use. I used to have a hammer drill, but I did not like that it was so big and it was not a great hammer drill. I rather have a smaller drill like this, and then get a corded hammer drill for the odd case I need that.
It looked like you had the car flat on the ground while you removed 4/5 lug nuts. The tire was bulged out. Please properly support the car next time, you might get someone hurt showing a video like this, or hurt yourself.
You know don't get an HP tool if you're not going to use the proper battery. I don't know why all you guys that do reviews consistently use the weaker battery? I really believe you you guys do it purposely.
Ryobi quality has been a DIY'er brand for a while. I think for the price, I would look somewhere else. I like a lot earthquake tools, so far, they have been reliable, but kobalt has gained my trust.
TIM from Canada so you were doing an impact test and I see you are giving Dewalt the five AHP battery And you are giving Ryobi the lowest battery they have 1.5.. this tells me that you are Dewalt fan and you were giving this test an unfair advantage but does not surprise me... there is no reason why you could not have used 4 AHP. Battery for the Ryobi IQ do not like the Ryobi tools but if you were going to screw up this test you go right ahead because this is not a fair value test when you are giving one platform a high value battery and you were giving another platform the lowest cheapest battery they make once again does not surprise me and I help you screw this test up because it is not a fair test to start with.. my values you sir have screwed this royale and you have not even done your testing yet this test is going to suck and I am not going to watch it
Ryobi with with a 1.5 ah batteryvs a DeWalt with a 5 ah battery. Of course the DeWalt will out perform the Ryobi. Using the same capacity of battery would be the best way to see the true difference in power. DeWalt will generally outperform Ryobi in most cases but in many cases the difference is small.
Useless video. The XR is top of the line, and you compared it to the bottom of the line compact Ryobi. Compare the XR to the Ryobi P238 with EQUAL size batteries for a valid comparison
@@ClientGraphics Always happy to support the community. Also your videos are great brother, so it makes it a pleasure to support the community with quality videos like this.
It does amaze me it took years to get to something the size that other brands have been at for years. For a DIYer or consumer with occasional use it should work okay.
Dave s....i love my ryobi.... Plenty of there tools saved my bacon a few times...i hate Milwaukee....its junk. My job gave up on Milwaukee cause the batteries n chargers go bad
LongIslandP8ntball Have milwaukee tools have amazing power. Don't see a trend of battery failures reported on the internet, so I don't know what you mean. And you being a power tool user would have to agree that Ryobi products are pretty much junk in the segment, and that the bottom tier level for a prosumer must start with at least a Dewalt. Ryobi might save you the bacon if you use it once a month and it doesn't have to endure any type of abuse.
