    2.0AH too small

    • +3

      Ive used 2.0ah in a blower, a chainsaw, a drill and a hedge trimmer and its been more than enough.

      • go the 5.0AH if you want it to last more than 10mins

        • +11

          If i'm drilling a hole for longer than 10 minutes, i'm gonna use something better than Ryobi.
          (This applies to all hole drilling)

          Thats what she said……

          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.

          • +1

            @DAT: 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…

          • +1

            @DAT: 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.

      • +2

        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.

    • +1

      great size for small hand tools

    • +3

      I've had the 2ah cut out on me when drilling harder materials

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

  • +6

    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.

    • 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.

      • +4

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

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

          • @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.

      • 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.

  • +3

    Absolute bargain if it's a 2Ah battery…
    It looks to be 1.5Ah from the OnePass weekend photo. Have you checked?

    • You might be right.

      I might have linked the wrong product.

      Added a mod note correction.

        I right clicked on the image to save it and the filename came up as "Ryobi ONE+ 18v 1.5Ah Battery starter kit.jpg"

        • Thanks for confirming.

  • +1

    is 2.0AH enough for my toothbrush

    • you need 5.0

      • Horse teeth?

  • Where are the prices listed? Interested in the Ozito 18v Garden Sprayer Kit

    • Only some of the prices are listed at the OnePass Page

      The Ozito 18v Garden Sprayer Kit is $89.

    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.

    • +2

      Or lights or radio.
      Or where a light battery is better, e.g. sanding.

    • +4

      The smaller batteries are great for drills and gardening equipment like pruners. Lightweight and easier to carry if you're up on a ladder.

    • Agree - but people above keep negging my comment re this above.

      • you need to provide context. Just posting a one liner without context/explanation will be negged.

    • +2

      these small batteries aren’t worth it

      Of course they are. If you are doing small jobs, then a small battery is cheaper, lighter, more practical and faster to recharge.
      Imagine a world where not everyone is you. Some people have different needs, and products like this suit those needs.

  • I'm heavily invested in the 36V Ryobi batteries. This is a good opportunity put a foot into the 18V range.

  • What’s the best snipper for tall grass?

    • A Brush cutter is best for tall grass. Otherwise a 36V battery line trimmer with a lot of elbow grease!

  • Does ot cost to sign up to one pass?

    "OnePass Weekend is an exciting online shopping event for OnePass members." I feel sorry for the people who have to write this stuff.

  • Normal price is supposedly $49. https://www.ryobi.com.au/products/starter-kits/18v-one-15ah-…, still a good price compared to the 2.0Ah.

  • +5

    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.

    • +1

      Yeah, it's a benefit being a small battery for the right tool

    • +1

      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.

    • +1

      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.

  • The Ryobi trimmer that I have uses 36V, 4Ah battery. Can I use this one as a backup? Will it work at all (even though it may work for a shorter time)?

    • No it won’t work.

  • Anyone using “alternative” Ryobi batteries?
    Just would like to know if it’s worth the money.
