I like the 3ah with the charge indicator and "power bank" capability. These features should be on all the USB lithium batteries.

Agreed!!!! I just picked up a 2 pack of the 3AH batteries for $25! That’s less then a single 3AH.

Looks like ryobie comes in clutch, I think they might have the most tools for one company by now, seems like they come out with new stuff every year, then agin all the company’s do, but usually when they come out with stuff it’s just an updated tool, ryobie is thinking out the box with some of these things. Great video my friend, great to see what these company’s are doing with they’re lineups and the different lineups they have, thank you for going out of your way to make a video and spend your hard earned money. That shows the honesty in the video because it’s coming from you and knowing your going to go into this with an open mind and let us know what you think, that’s the best and why I like the style of video you make for us to check out. Keep going strong my friend

Exactly the same reason for why I purchased these tools, they are for my wife and son to have them to use around the house, the screw driver and power cutter kit are perfect for them when they need to cut boxes down for the recycling bin or to tighten up a screw. We don't need the rotary tool since I have several Dremel tools including a battery charged one. I love that these smaller batteries can be used to charge cell phones or other devices using a type C cable, and I learned from your video that only the 3 amp./h ones can do this while the 2 amp/h. won't (kind of a bummer but this is why I watch KZitem videos like yours). I just purchased one of the 2 amp/h earlier this evening at Home Depot, however it looks like it has the same battery indicator now that you showed the 3 amp/hr one had so it's quite possible they have updated their 2 amp/hr ones to work w/ cell phones, maybe? I will test it tomorrow morning to see if it charges my cell phone. Perfect for a quick charge that you can easily fit in your pocket with a short cable. Most of these combo packages now come w/ 4 tools, and 2 of the 2amp/hr and 2 of the 3 amp/hr batteries plus you can get a free gift of another battery and pick either one based on the package you pick, so you get 5 batteries in total these days. I am going to go with as many of the 3 amp/hr ones because I want to use them as lightweight phone charging and it's worth having the extra 150% amp/hr. Although I also ordered the USB connector for the 18V batteries to take on car trips to keep our son's phone charged. If I am not mistaken it's better to use batteries that are closer if not exact in voltage because you can lose quite a bit of energy from using an inverter. For example I went camping w/ my biPap machine years ago and brought along a 12 V battery but used an inverter so I could use my 120V plug, I barely got 1 night's worth of power. However the next time I went camping I used instead a 12V cable that went directly into my machine, so no inverting needed and this time the 12V battery lasted 2 nights. Both times the 12V battery was the same battery and was fully charged. My calculations in that scenario was a 40% loss if you go from 12V to 120V, but if you keep 12V to 12V is the way to go. But what about powering things like cell phones, laptops, and tablets, what the best voltage to use to reduce loss of energy?

That 4volt screwdriver is a life saver in the professional world as well, especially for low voltage stuff, wall plates, rack screws, heck it has the torque to get a drywall screw into wood. Also the lights again wonderful for field work and dark network closets.

I don't have Ryobi yet. I have a black and decker battery powered screw drive much like the Ryobi but probably 15 years old😂 The battery isn't removable you just plug in into the charger. The Ryobi package is definitely a great deal and as you mentioned, the screwdriver/nutdriver is a great option for low torque applications👍I think it might be time to retire my black and decker😊

I have such a love hate relationship with Ryobi. Specially the 40 volt line. This lithium line is really cool and very useful for around the house. But I’ll be sticking with Kobalt for my higher voltage hand tools cause they have better quality and power. But I will say that Ryobi has so many tools to choose from. I have the 18 volt bug light and I live that thing!! Also the Ryobi hot glue glue has been a lifesaver for me.

I have the ryobi tech 4 screwdriver that I bought a few years ago. Doesn’t swivel but it has a 5 amp hour battery. Don’t know why they switched to the lower 3 amp hour battery. Maybe because the 5 lasts forever without a recharge. I have a spare battery but rarely change it out. They no longer sell the tech 4.

No it is not an invension it's simply an 18650 ION battery put in a plastic case together with and BMS. And then they can yet again sell their own charger which will only work with ryobi tools. I am personally sick on all companies selling their "own" battery packs. When they sell tools with an single ION battery why not put a standard 18650 in the tools instead of sell stuff that only works with their own bran?. It's simple they want us think they doing something new and cool. This clearly only creates more waste and trash for the enviroment. This is of course not unique for just Ryobi all companies doing similar bloat. Clearly not an innovation just waste/greenwaching...

Agree with you on standardizing 18650 instead putting their plastic case on it and call it USB Lithium like it something special. Remember though almost every company mainly cares about maximizing profits nothing else. The leads off these batteries comes straight to contacts so it easy to use any RC charger on it, can use a 3D printer to make case for to fit with leads. As for green environment that will never work when money is involved.

@BrandtHambrick we all know it charges with usb c, the problem is the tools/devices that takes this battery takes this specific 18650 with that housing on it. Using standard off the shelf 18650 means we can use any 18650 from ebay and amazon or 18650battery store. Using their designs means after the battery life cycles end means we need to buy ryobi battery, unless you work with lithium battery and can easily change the cells inside. The same goes for Milwaukee usb red lithium.
