This Ryobi 18V ONE+ Drill Kit comes complete with two ONE+ 1.3Ah Lithium batteries & charger.

Featuring a 2 speed gearbox, 24 clutch settings, and keyless chuck, the drill also comes with an integrated magnet for convenient on-board storage of bits and screws.

As part of the Ryobi ONE+ system the included batteries are compatible with over 30 Ryobi ONE+ tools.

24 clutch torque settings for ultimate control when drilling and screwdriving
10mm keyless chuck
2 speed gear box
Variable speed control for greater precision when driving screws
Magnet for holding screws or drill bits

Good price for a 18v DIY drill kit - 1.3a Lithium battery is about $49~69 each.

Note: This is a new 18v Lithium kit. The old $99 one comes with 2 Ni-Cad batteries.

Do you really need a 13mm chuck? Most DIYs not.

          I'd be interested to know as well as I am in the market for a drill at this price range. Can someone please comment/recommend? Thanks

          @bghunter:
          My concern will be with the 10mm chuck vs 13mm chuck. If you want a drill to just do simple odd jobs around the house, it's pretty good. But if you want to venture anymore into DIY (eg. laying tiles, painting whole house), you'd really want a 13mm chuck.

          I was looking for a drill few months back and decided to pay a bit more to get Makita range. It's more pricey, more reliable, and the main thing is I'm buying into a system that has tools that suit my needs.

          Be careful of cheap cordless packs as they bait users into using their battery system for all the other cordless devices that you may need (eg. cordless hammer drill or cordless impact driver etc)

          @javadosed:
          Cheers, I definitely dont see myself laying tiles or painting in the next few years. I'd be doing very simple jobs like drilling, putting up shelves on the wall. SO is this a good buy for those purposes? Thank you for your input

          @bghunter:
          For putting together flatpacks, this will handle it nicely. Beware this is not a hammer drilll - you can't drill into bricks or masonry services to secure wall hung shelves etc.

        • bghunter on 18/08/2014 - 14:52

          @javadosed:
          Oh ok, thanks for enlightening a newbie, looks like hammer drill is the one that I want

          @bghunter:

          For the price, this is a great cheap drill for a beginner. For odd jobs, the Ryobi series is cheap and reliable. Just make sure you buy the Lithium batteries.

          Personally i think if you are wanting a hammer drill for bricks buy an electric one as it will do the job better.

          So i would recommend this and an electric hammer drill as a good combo.

    These have always been at this price; in fact last i checked 6 months ago they were $98.

  • slowmo on 18/08/2014 - 14:22

    i hate ryobi simply because they come in 18v AND 36V options. why can't they just stick with 1 type of battery system? that's just forcing me to buy batteries for one tool that comes only in 18v and another in 36v. which defeats the whole bloody purpose of 'interchangeable'.

    • javadosed on 18/08/2014 - 14:23
      +1

      yeh i know, unlike makita's 36v system supported by 2x18v batteries :)

    • c0balt on 18/08/2014 - 14:26

      Because no one needs a 36v drill?

      *And if you did, would a plastic fantastic Ryobi be the best idea for what ever needs 36v to be drilled into?

    • Obake on 18/08/2014 - 14:37

      I think if you look most manufactures have 36v, 18v, 14.4v or more. And not just DIY brands, but brands like Hitachi, Bosch (blue), and Makita. I'm sure others do too, it's not just Ryobi. They're not forcing you into anything, except choice, the right tool for the job.

      • slowmo on 18/08/2014 - 19:58

        well, its all about the purpose of design and not purpose of tools. like what javadosed said, makitas allows you to stack 18vs to power 36V tools. that's at least how it should be.

        not sure about you, but i don't buy into brands that claims to be 'interchangeable' but with a really fancy catch.

        "right tool for right job" is irrelevant when you have a tool that is of a wrong designed purpose (perhaps other than forcing consumers to buy more of their chargers and batteries)

        if you think about it, it's not THAT difficult to design a 36V battery that only makes 18V available when plugged into a 18V tool.

        when I buy a range of cordless tools, I don't want to have my workshop cluttered with every bloody charger under the sun. With no hope of all brands standardising their battery types like how others in the electronic world do for AA batteries, at least I would expect a single brand within itself will do it./rant

    • deal88 on 18/08/2014 - 17:40

      Actually Ryobi are one of the best for interchangeability. Nearly all items have an 18 volt version except the Lawn mower. And you really need the extra power for the Lawn mower. (i have the 36V Bosch mower)

      • Twisty on 18/08/2014 - 20:06

        Does it make dust like a normal mower?

        • deal88 on 20/08/2014 - 22:49

          I have never had an issue with dust. Is that caused by the mower or the grass?

  • ufsta on 18/08/2014 - 15:41

    A few days ago at bunning I seen the Ozito combo which had: 18v Impact driver + Drill + Light + Vibrating saw + ozito bag for $99. Didnt think it was on special or would have bought it and dont know if the special is still on.

    normal price, sorry no deal

  • Twisty on 18/08/2014 - 16:33

    So what is the normal price? $99 down from what?

  • TailsK on 18/08/2014 - 17:47

    Pretty sure this is usually around the $140 or $160 mark. I remember it was more than $99, cause I'm pretty sure I was waiting for these to hit this price before I got one.

    • javadosed on 18/08/2014 - 22:13

      It's always been at this price. The $179 one you're probably referring to is a hammer drill with 2x1.3ah packs. Same package, different drill.

  • reactor on 18/08/2014 - 19:52

    does this come with at least some basic drill bits ?

    • javadosed on 18/08/2014 - 22:14
      +1

      iirc it's 2 screwdriver bits and that's it. Pretty much accessories not included. A decent pack of drill bits will cost you another $30 or so.

      • reactor on 19/08/2014 - 07:43

        thanks mate

  • gravedilute on 18/08/2014 - 20:10

    Can't recommend this drill
    Charger packed it in about a month after warranty ran out
    Had two batteries and one is dead and the other holds a charge for about 10 mins.
    Bloody hopeless

    • javadosed on 18/08/2014 - 22:08

      iirc these chargers in this pack are the cheap 'standard' (aka 'slow') chargers, which is unusable on a decent 3Ah battery as it takes hours to charge. Also, the 1.xAh batteries are ultra small capacity, so over 12mths it'd be charged more often (and thus wear out) its life relatively quicker than a larger capacity battery. But then for a $99 pack vs a trade-quality one costing at least twice the price, you really do get what you pay for.

    • deal88 on 20/08/2014 - 23:00

      These Lithium batteries should be pretty good and reliable. Did you have the NiCad batteries?
      This is a pretty basic charger, most of the other Ryobi kits would come with an upgraded charger.

  • TailsK on 22/08/2014 - 19:32

    Just spoke to one of the guys at Bunnings. There's a new 5 tool pack coming out in a week or so, plus we should see some Father's Day discounts shortly!
