I’m so glad you made this video. I was definitely looking forward to it, and it didn’t disappoint. I’m definitely getting one when it comes out!

Looking forward to this tool. Definitely will be adding this to my collection LOL. Thanks for the review.

As a Mechanic I'm not worried about the battery so much compared to a 100ft air hose plus nipples and couplings. I like the idea of being able to use a cordless in a quick and grab moments. Whether it's hot days or cold days in the shop or outside, this can be very handy for some quick work under the hood or interior. I wouldn't use this for torquing but definitely worth it's weight in Gold moving about over fasteners.

I have the shorter 3/8 ratchet and to be honest I was impressed with it. I was doing a break job and it broke the caliper bracket bolts free. I was shocked. I moved on from it to an M12 3/8 ratchet but my Ryobi is still in my tool box and gets used every now and then. Thanks for sharing, we learn a lot from all these videos you do.

Good review as always.

I do hope that Ryobi's going to release a right-angle impact driver like the one Kobalt has.

Ryobi makes up for the bulky battery with it's torque ratings since you probably will have trouble wrenching it in tight spaces. I just think this would be a great tool if it was slimmer like the Milwaukee unless by passed.

Man, the intro music tore my speakers up! Damn boy!

Ryobi has been pushing lately... they're not messing around...Good stuff TJ...👍🏁

Hi from down under. Just bought one of these after watching your video. Man! it does not dissapoint. Was very surprised on how much torque it has.

Good review, that ryobi 3/8 looks like a monster lol

wow I'm amazed that the ratchet head indexes while milwaukee ratchets do not. Sometimes it would be nice to swivel the m12 ratchet head around and stick the 6.0xc battery on there for extra oomph on those fasteners where a CP battery cant turn the nut but an XC can. I suspect that indexing feature will make it to Milwaukee ratchets soon

Great review thanks it will be great nut on and off tool as for torque doesn't matter because you shouldn't be braking torque with type tool anyway but nice to know 150 ft max without braking it. Like indexing head.

My team (Yellow) should be releasing their ratchet in spring 2022. Since I do have a couple of One+ batteries I got the 3/8 and 1/4" extended reach for $200 and only for pulling nuts and bolts off after breaking them loose by hand ( 7:22 ). I spend so much time with a regular ratchet just turning bolts or nuts at a low torque..... 1" of threads on a bolt with 24 threads per inch is 24 complete revolutions takes forever by hand especially when you have 8-12 bolts. A key concept most reviewers don't know is the individual cells making up a battery pack. They are made up of 16850 cells, 3.6v each. The 1-4Ah packs are 5 cells in series. 5-6Ah are 10 cells in series-parallel. The 8-10Ah are 15 cells in series-parallel. The 5-6Ah typically will provide double the Amperage (so more torque) and 9+Ah 3x the amperage. Also, different 16850 cells have different charge/discharge rates (called C) which differs from Capacity (Ah). Two cells of identical Ah capacity can have different max discharge rates, so one 2Ah cell could provide 10A where another cell can provide 25A discharge, thus give you more torque (google: 18650 cell database). So the 6Ah High Performance battery WILL give max torque to the ratchet, where the 2Ah standard battery will provide much less torque.

just wish they came with a slimmer battery design.. Thanks for sharing

This thing would be awesome for interior, under dash, and other places that suck to drag an air hose.

Looks like it has the threaded hole for the belt hook! I hate that my Milwaukee ratchet lacks that.

Pretty impressive. But ryobi is getting out of control with their prices. $20 more and you can get the milwaukee fuel high speed. 50 more and you can get the milwaukee fuel extended, and you dont have to deal w the brick below your hand. I am shocked and impressed by the results, but being that expensive defeats the purpose of buying ryobi.

No other review has shown using the tool as a a manual to help the power drive. I work on cars, that's how we used the pneumatic version, good to know it works here also! Ya sold me.

Can you review the craftsman cmcf820 is a 3 speed impact driver

Hi Tim, you always produce a very informative video, I like this tool it’s very interesting I’m staying with Milwaukee I remember Milwaukee being around before ryobi, plus for a few more bucks I can get a Milwaukee brand new, ryobi is supposed to be the Budget tool! just my opinion, ty, Bob,

is that the new led handheld light I see in the background? 👀

Have you tested the Kobalt ratchet ? Be interested in a comparison with this one l

Do you get more torque by using the High Performance batteries?

When are these ratchets coming out

so if I get the extended 1/4 do you think it wil be a good purchase( anther thought its a I guess if I had one of those special gator grip universal adapters this I would guess would certainly work better as I think ink that type of socket is not recommeded for use in impact rate tools !!!!) ?????

You should do links to stuff you review where you get paid if someone buys from a link on your review. Your video sold me on this. Debatinf an m12 set up vs buying this thay i alrwady have a ton od batteries for.

For ratchets I’m gunna go M12. I love my Kobalt 24v but that M12 form factor is amazing and worth adding a battery platform IMO at the price.

The more of these ratchets I see the more I like my Milwaukee.1/4 ratchet it's still the only one that can go anywhere on acar

Could you test the craftsman 3/8 brushless impact wrench ? Wanted to know if it's any good

Dig it!

Where can I get a case to store this, battery & charger?

Does this mean it’ll tighten to 55 ft lbs with a larger battery? My lawnmower requires 55 ft lbs to tighten the blade and I’d like this to handle that.

I use to run dewalt but now I’m going all ryobi. There batteries last longer the impacts are very strong and they handle abuse very well! My tools get thrown and full of oil and water so they are champs

The first ratchet solves the battery with the rotating head. It's just odd that the trigger isn't in the correct position. The new ratchet has this same issue. The battery bump issue could have been solved even easier by a simple 180 degree rotation of the battery. This would have the bump sticking out the back and the battery would almost never get in the way. Keeping the rotating head would have been a nice way to ensure the battery doesn't get in the way. I know it would be odd to put a battery in "backwards" but that would have been a small price to pay to fix this annoying issue. I don't understand why they didn't make the body shorter on the extended ratchets. I am sure that could have been optimized in some way. I do like the extra power of the new ratchet, but the huge overall length is a big annoyance. The price is also outrageous for a Ryobi ratchet especially considering the other ratchets are almost half that at $80. Time to do some thinking.

Could the 2ah non hp battery be the main factor its not reaching the max torque stated by Ryobi? Perhaps the 4ah HP battery would make the difference.

Right now small rachet 3/8 is 80 dls battery and charger if some one wants to try, homedepot

You know, I was actually thinking of getting that 12v Skil ratchet, as it seemed like good quality and value, but this has more power, reach, and I can stick to one battery platform I've noticed a few people wondering why Ryobi is introducing these tools that are more expensive and pushing up against some of the higher end brands since they think "Ryobi= Cheap just buy Milwaukee etc." But I actually like this approach that they're taking by offering higher performance tools in the same battery platform, so if you want to upgrade to a more prosumer tool, you don't have to buy into a whole new battery platform. Instead you can keep using the same platform you have and all the other tools that you have to go along with it. That's a nice upgrade path to higher performance tools.

Interesting even if no one would use a nut runner like that.

Maybe I’m just dumb, but if it’s rated at 55 ft lbs and measuring at 30 ft lbs, how is it able to loosen a bolt that’s tightened to 65 ft lbs. Wouldn’t it require the same force to loosen a bolt as it would to tighten?

Ryobi did it they tryed to get right as pro category and their almost there

how can i get the extended version in the uk

I love science! What you, I think actually dominated was the difference the size of the socket and fasteners have different load-resistance. I think if you tried tightening a large fastener, say 15/16" or so, to say 65ftlbs, and a small fastener say 9/16" too the same 65ftlbs, and using a standard length 1/2" ratchet and the tool you used at beginning of the video, just for fun. I'd like to see what the tools says.

That's a great value for home if it goes on sale. The only thing that kills it is that big battery 🔋 that gets in the way.

Speed test!

Does anyone else wonder how warranty on this stuff actually is compared to brands like milwaukee? I mean, if it dies on you, is the warranty worth a crap? In the past, getting Ryobi spare parts wasn’t easy either.

Let’s call it 70 ft pounds because it can do it but it will take a while to rotate

Grat review!!! I'm impressed with the tool, I was really planning to get it until i heard the price, 159 dollars 😬, you can get milwaukee for this price

All they'd have to do is make a battery that looks like the Milwaukee battery, but fits the standard Ryobi socket. Have it come with a locking adapter so that you can also use the larger batteries if you want to. It might tack on a few extra dollars, but then you can switch around as you need to. I mean, it's too late now, the design is done, but still...

So are they saying you can use this as you showed and force the wrench to tighten and loosen bolts like a regular ratchet? I thought they didn’t recommend that?

Where can I get one of those meters to measure torque?

my only concern with it is that 30+ ft pounds of torque is almost instant, so I am worried it'd way overtorque small fastners

At least they tried

Dcf894 please

I don’t like Milwaukee as much bought an accessory and the battery said it’s 6.0 Ah and it’s only works for about 30 minutes

Only thing I’d like it can cach fire 🔥 it’s not brushless.

And where is ridged…??🤷🏼‍♂️

Man, they better release this one in EU within a reasonable timeframe... Still waiting for that darn 3/8th impact though, so Im not too hopeful :/

I bought this to remove a bolt holding my caliber and the torque was to weak. I had to take it back and buy an impact wrench

Honestly, the battery is annoying but not a deal breaker. Would I prefer a shorter battery? Absolutely. Does the bulky battery make the tool too cumbersome to use? No.

When the battery is in the tool, it has a similar form factor to any other tool out there. I don't get why you keep complaining about that? The issue is when it's out the tool. Then it's form factor becomes a bit of a nuisance.

Owners manual says, "NOTICE: Do not turn the tool off and attempt to use the tool manually to gain extra torque on the nut or bolt being tightened. Doing so could cause damage to the fastener and/or the tool. "

Place the tool onto the counter or into vise to eliminate human error. Your body flexing absorbs torque! Smarten up!!!

15:11 aH rating is just for run time, not any stronger because its still a 20V battery and the brushless motor runs on 20V ... So a 20V 2aH is the same as a 20V 9aH ... both are 20V batteries and will drive the motor at the same force. The motor does not get anymore power on a 9ah vs 2ah ...

XMAS 2021 MILWAUKEE vs Ryobi 🎻🥁🥁🙊❓🤔

All such ratchets should be "extended" (which is a stupid buzzword since that length should be standard for a cordless tool) because shorter tools are worse to use being severely limited.

Damn, 65 fl lbs. looks like I bought the wrong ratchet. I got the new Milwaukee high speed extended ratchet….that thing can’t even do 15 ft lbs. Annoying when you have to manually loosen everything. Especially when you break loose a rusty bolt manually, and it still won’t spin it after that.

Wish ryobi had a 12 volt platform like miluakeee

Wow brushless moter

30 lb-ft? isn't that less than the standard version??

Bought this for $82 from hp

Does tti have a minor sponsorship on this channel? It’s mostly tti brands.

It would be great except for that battery..

Upgraded from an older 18v kit. kzfaq.infoUgkxW1vOBRCMrgTCDEijzpVzDWsgI-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.

Its too bad the head is not retractable

Ryobi needs a 12v line

I will pay 159 rather than 229 for the m12

Use a hp battery there is a difference

The Only problem with the ratchet is the Big battery 🤦🏼‍♂️

Aren't they just the professional line of Black & decker? And I believe DeWalt is affiliated with them as well. I'm sorry but as a professional those are throwaway tools nothing more they never last long they wear out a lot faster and the batteries are always junk anyway that's why I bought Makita and Milwaukee yes it's more in price but you definitely get your money's worth with those guys, homeowners Ryobi would be the tool for you what to the rest of us they are throwaway tools but nice job on the video trying to convince otherwise.

Wow that just looks silly. It’s too bulky and that battery will get hung up. Why design it in an L shape? Sticking with dewalt for power tools mostly. Went with skil 1/4 impact for my ratchet cheap and has great torque and rpm

too bulky with the ryobi battery, I dont want that when working on a car

Until they redesign that brick they call a battery, I'm not interested in their products.

Its just so big 🤦🤦🤦

Buy cheap buy twice

It breaks the record for the worst form factor of a 'ratchet' ever.

Paid shill. Hard to take serious about review.
