          Not sure why the snowflakes are negging you. 2ah is generally too small for most household tasks. yes, no one is stopping you to put in drill and chainsaw but can't really use for more than 15mins. Time to report the fake ghost accounts. Mostly used by flakes who can't handle other opinions.

            @Ozsaver88: I guess it depends on the tool. But for a whippersnipper I find the 4AH battery is a touch not enough for a regular lawn (front and back), so a 1.5AH battery would definitely not work for me.

            But I guess for a quick drilljob it might be ok

            Yet I've had one for years and never had a problem.
            I very rarely need to do things that require 15 solid minutes of full power. Drilling and cutting are usually 30 second jobs, and I can do my whole yard with the whipper snipper on a 1.5Ah battery. The only thing that sucks the juice is the leaf blower.

            Mostly used by flakes who can't handle other opinions.

            The irony of this comment…

            @Ozsaver88: I use a 2ah (and often 1.5ah) in tools all day long. Unless it's a high draw tool the wrist strain reduction from the weight saving is huge, let alone the compactness and ease of movement in spaces etc.

      • Ozsaver88 on 13/09/2024 - 11:50

        No one is stopping you to put it in a blower, a chainsaw, a drill and a hedge trimmer but very inconvenient because of the need to charge frequently. So, it is a valid point.

        • Clear on 19/09/2024 - 10:55

          Given its 1.5Ah it'll be even worse. Neggers being silly yet again.

    • T-Quizzle on 13/09/2024 - 15:44

      I find these perfect size and appreciate the noticeable difference in weight for quick jobs around the house. For me, I’m only using half a charge on the bigger batteries - I’d rather deplete a smaller size

    • edfoo on 13/09/2024 - 17:47

      I have seen review not only smaller Ah batteries don't last as long, they also not providing the same power as the larger batteries. Personally I would not use batteries smaller than 3Ah.

      • Averell on 15/09/2024 - 07:43

        I believe this is a myth. Unless your battery is near the end of its life

        • virtualsid on 15/09/2024 - 09:43

          Not a myth. There are more cells that can provide a higher starting load, as well as ongoing load. It’s just the basic nature of these things.

        • Nom on 15/09/2024 - 12:19

          Not a myth - some of the high-draw tools like the circular saw don't work as well with the smaller batteries. The larger batteries have larger power output.

      • Nom on 15/09/2024 - 12:25
        +1

        they also not providing the same power as the larger batteries.

        Correct.
        Use the battery that's correctly sized for your job.

        Personally I would not use batteries smaller than 3Ah.

        That makes no sense at all.

        There are many jobs that don't need the extra power, and where you don't want the extra weight, and where you can't fit the extra size.

        You need different sizes of batteries for different jobs, including the small ones !

        • billdsl on 19/09/2024 - 07:55

          Im looking at getting a brad nailer soon, no need for anything bigger than 2.0A and make the tool heaps easier to lift and navigate with

          Definitely have their use cases, plus you get another charger

  • MasterScythe on 13/09/2024 - 11:13
    +12

    Amazingly small for the runtime.
    But the low amperage can really affect some tools.

    I find the 2AH work well on things that rely on momentum - My grinder (on softer metals) doesn't care, leaf blower doesn't care, etc.
    But things like the Rattle Gun, Drill Driver, and Chainsaw really benefit from a 4Ah or greater.

    • realJuliusCaesar on 13/09/2024 - 11:30

      It's amp hours, not amps. It refers to the electrical storage, rather than power available.

      Technically though, batteries with more storage capacity do have some increase in power available, even if they nominally all 18V there is more current available. There's a discussion here.

      • MasterScythe on 13/09/2024 - 12:09
        +11

        I'm talking about the amount of amperage available as surge current, allowing a DC motor to maximise torque in stall scenarios.

        • realJuliusCaesar on 13/09/2024 - 12:29
          -3

          OK, good. It wasn't clear from your initial comment and I thought that the extra explanation might help other viewers.

          • dufflover on 13/09/2024 - 12:45

            @realJuliusCaesar: lol I think "correcting" the original correct comment saying it should be amp hours makes it less helpful I think hehe.
            Though surprisingly to me no one has mentioned more specifically it's that typical 4Ah packs are double-stack as per your link.

            The difference in power between 1.5Ah and 2Ah packs would be negligible compared to 2Ah => 3Ah/4Ah larger 10-cell pack.
            I use the 2.5 (or was it 2.0) from some deal a while back in my impact driver though to keep it light. Only doing basic jobs not lag bolts lol.

        +5

        Technically though, batteries with more storage capacity do have some increase in power available

        4Ah and greater packs have two rows of batteries, connected in parallel, which doubles the max current. It doesn't matter much if the tool doesn't draw more than one row can supply, though (usually 15-25A for high drain batteries).

        Double row packs also self-balance better.

    As someone who has Ryobi gear with batteries from 2ah to 9ah and likes them, these small batteries aren’t worth it. Forget runtime etc, it’s about the ability for it to handle heat if there’s any decent resistance.
    4ah minimum to avoid these issues.

    The only use case for this I can see is for their random tools like the glue gun.

      Of course they are. If you are doing small jobs, then a small battery is cheaper, lighter, more practical and faster to recharge.

      Once did 500 roofing screws with 2x 2ah batteries.
      When one went flat the other had already finished charging and was ready to go.
      And the 2ah is easier to use for longer durations then the dealing with the weight of the 6ah.

  • guidedlight on 13/09/2024 - 11:50

    People who claim 2.0aH isn’t enough are full of it.

    It’s fine for drills, blowers, torches, hand pruners, etc. it won’t last you as long obviously, but they’re lighter and easier to use on those tools.

      Exactly. No point putting a 5ah battery in your drill to just fasten a bunch of screws when you’re putting together ikea. Have a 2 handy when you just need something quick and light.

    • TheThoughtFraud on 13/09/2024 - 13:35

      Agree. Ryobi's own pruner R18PCS112 comes with 2.0.

      Sadly, this looks like its only 1.5. Its still a decent deal as looks like RRP is $49.

      Price of 2.0 jumps a bit, at least $70. So this deal is a decent option if you just need a spare battery to fill a gap.

  • virhlpool on 13/09/2024 - 13:35

          Safety firstly is utter importance with batteries period.

          A spot welder is a must, but you can solder, but youd need to be hot and fast.

          I replace all cells as a general rule, and make sure your voltages are 0.1-0.2v at most as a variance between cells.

    Nothing wrong with this battery, it's ideal for the smaller tools such as the staple gun, and I use the bigger batteries for the pruning saw etc.

  • max99 on 16/09/2024 - 12:53

    For some context I have used the 1.5ah to put together over 400kg of IKEA furniture in the last week and it still has charge remaining. People saying it is useless have their own use cases in mind.

    • guidedlight on 16/09/2024 - 20:57

      I think the issue is that most tools would have too much current draw on a 1.5Ah battery. So the tool itself would be underpowered, and the battery life would be shortened. Drills and drivers don't actually require much power, but most garden tools (pruners, line trimmers, hedge trimmers, garden blowers, etc) are probably not suitable.

      Personally, I plan to pick up a garden sprayer which would be fine with a battery of this size.
