I’m A die hard ryobi fan, owner, user. I have that Milwaukee ratchet. I would have preferred if ryobi made a smaller battery for smaller tools, just like Milwaukee has. They mace a m12 and m18 line of tools. Ryobi could have made a small battery like the Milwaukee but still fit in the 18v charger.

As a mechanic it really comes down to the money and platforms you want to invest in. I wouldn't use any cordless ratchet to torque anything. They are good for fasteners bolts, quick assembly and disassembly of interior/exterior bolts. These are used more for the speed in break downs than it ever is for bolt torquing. I use Ryobi mainly because I have for years but also because I have yard equipment and other tools on the platform. Good package pricing as well. Even the most basic tool can be a super tool in the right hands...

Air ratchets are the best! They are especially used for lug nuts as they can handle the torque required, often over 100 ft-lbs for lug nuts. But for tight work inside the engine, you might be better off with the smaller and more mobile Milwaukee and Ryobi.

I have had the Milwaukee M12 for 4+ years and I love it. I don't think That I could get by using the Ryobi just because of the size of the battery, to many tight spaces that it won't go into. I will give up the power that it looses to the 18 volt Ryobi just to keep it small.

jeffostroff The ryobi spin feature only gives it clearance from that one side, your not accounting for the difference in length or just that now you have the huge battery sticking out the other side, for the task you did sure if wouldn’t matter much, but I’ve had to put my Milwaukee ratchet in tight spaces where it just fit, especially in automotive, places where there’s no way the ryobi would begin to fit. Example taking the bolts out of a fan on the front of the engine, bolts out of the top of a transmission, or in going deep in the engine bay where I have to slide it in and flip it all around just to get to the bolt, many times where an extra inch in length and definitely 3+ inches at the base would not cut it. For real automotive work, nothing beats the Milwaukee.

That ryobi wouldn’t even fit where I’ve put my fuel 1/2 inch ratchet at. The big battery makes it useless for engine bay work. You buy Milwaukee for the battery lineup not just the tool

Also Fiberglass means I wont get shocked when doing electrical work if a live wire touches my ladder. Also top has a magnet tray, and bottom has impact absorbing bottom bracing.

I want to buy the Fuel version of this tool and do a test

I have been looking at buying the Ryobi 18v Ratchet. I have a lot of Ryobi tools so i have quit a few batteries and the 6pack changer. I do a lot of old car restoration as a hobby. it looks like a very nice tool with the exception is that it is very heavy and the battery on the end makes it kind of awkward in tights spaces. the Milwaukee is a more elegant design. its lighter and for a professional mechanic that uses it all day long that is a big difference. for someone like me that just uses it on weekends the Ryobi would be prefect and the 18v battery pack will last monger then the 12v pack. TTI makes both the Ryobi and the Milwaukee branded power tools, so I expect them to preform about the same with the advantage going to the 18v. these would be great for small jobs, but neither could replace my Campbell-Hausfeld GSD air ratchet for speed or power when working on a car. also you should never tighten lug nuts with a impact wrench. using an impact wrench can over tighten the lugs damaging the threads on the stud, damaging the wheel rim, and possibly warping the break drum or rotor. I know a lot of contractors that use Ryobi because of the price of the batteries when compared to Milwaukee or DeWalt or others. the Hart stuff is just recolored Ryobi with a different battery pack design. the guts are identical.

I've used the milwaukee one on cars and put to MUCH abuse. You can use it as an actual locking ratchet to break lose nuts and tighten. So no need to worry about breaking anything in the head of the ratchet. Most things needing tighten and lossened with a 3/8" ratchet don't take or should take enough torque to do any damage. I have also just purchased the ryobi WITH a battery and charger for only 20$ more which seemed worth it as I was in the market for another battery. I'll see how much more I'll use it over the milwaukee.i really do like the idea of a rotating head yet you can rotate the milwaukee 360. Very thorough review .

Other than the annoying background music your video is very enlightening. Thank you for sharing this information. My tool is the RIDGID JobMax 18V and 12V. Their ratchet is not as strong, yet serves me well. JobMax provides many changeable heads.

That would be a nice offering

From an electrician of 20 years of industrial and construction Ryobi is great for home, not quit tough enough for commercial or industrial work. The bodies flex too much under load, frequently pinching the palm of my hand. The motors stall out before long before Ridgid, Milwakee or Dewalt. Many of the Ryobi motor gears are polymer and do not stand up to abuse. They are cheap for a reason. I use Ryobi for home use. I bought into the brand explicitly for the cordless fan and have acquired several more Ryobi tools with no regrets.

Good info!

So the ryobi has a bit more power to handle that larger bolt because it runs on an 18v battery right and the milwaukee is 12v. Also i think you are using a 3 or 4ah on the ryobi in this video is it not? Looks a little too big for it to be the 2ah one that it comes with

The Ryobi is a tool only. I should try my 1.5 on it and see if it works as strong, not sure I did that one yet.

jeffostroff Online there is an option for charger and two batteries(2ah). Im sure that is a big factor with it being 18v and 4ah. There was another video somehwere on youtube of a guy doing a review on a ryobi tool and got different results on the same job when he would swap between lower and higher amp batteries.

THANKS

You're welcome!

So I noticed on the car the Ryobi stripped the threads it appears. The Milwaukee stopped the bolt when it was at the torque level was reached, but the Ryobi kept spinning the bolt until you stopped it. Looked stripped. This video could have been drastically shortened with keeping to the important things.

10:26 you never tightened the bolt all the way, because you were afraid you were going to strip the bolt ;) Defeated the purpose of the test, just saying should have used it on a bigger bolt.

It tightened all the way you can hear the clutch disengage.

Everyone complaining about the Ryobi battery needs to understand they use that same battery on all of their tools. They’re not going to design a different battery for the ratchet. With that said, arguing Milwaukee Vs. Ryobi is about as ridiculous as arguing Ford Vs. Chevy. They’re both fine.

Uh Makita uses a smaller battery for their 3/8 ratchet. That Ryobi 3/8 ratchet design with their regular battery is just plain lazy and lacking innovation! That thing is the best laugh I've had all day.

I just use a 90 degree attachment for my impact

Good idea, but how do you get the impact to fit all the way down deep?

Ryobi is prosumer. I've used their products for years. The short coming has always been battery life. Ni-cad let me down, My fault leaving them in the charger all the time. Just bought the new green line. Lot less expensive and same or better specs.

Yes I always tell people with all those old school nicad batteries to ditch those old systems even if you have to pay money to upgrade to a newer brushless motor with lithium ion batteries their lives will be much much better there will be much happier with newer more modern more powerful and lighter tools

They are the same tool under the covers. slight changes in outer shell. milwaukee, rigid, ryobi are the same company. They used to swap out plastic for metal, and sometimes better motors but lately they don't even do that to keep costs down. Notice that the rigid and ryobi are starting to look alike? I have friends that work at the factory, even swapped out made our own version of tools.

Well I've been in the market for a ratchet. (I just work on my person vehicles usually toyota cars) i got the m18 fuel 1/2 mid torque and the 90 degree m12 impact (it a crazy how small and powerful it is) I think I'm gonna go with a ryobi for the ratchet I have an adaptor for my m18 to ryobi tools that I run my recip saw and my lawnmower/ weed trimmer. Both are great brands dont let a battery hold you back go buy a 25 dollar adapter and live freely.

That's a novel idea on the adapter!

Maybe I'm wrong (mine is a bad English) but you are comparing a 12v product with a 18v product ... maybe a non-equal comparison? correct me if I'm wrong..

@jeffostroff

2 жыл бұрын

Yes but they both have the same to work so it's not like you can assume that the 18 Volt product necessarily has more power than the 12 Volt product, because they both have the exact same torque spec

Very insightful but I prefer my Dewalt pneumatic...plus I love the power/sound in my garage...my impact as well.

You make it sound like the Ryobi has more power. Both tools are specification listed at 35 ft-lbs, and 240 or so RPM, they should have same power.

Are you kidding me with the size of the battery on the end of that thing?

I can easily get to most bolts on the upper part of the engine. anything down tight, not even the Milwaukee can get to, you need to start adding 12" extenders.

Nice video, but little suggestion. I wouldn’t use a crowbar to tighten lugs.

They could’ve squared off the battery and used the same connector to plug the big battery or a smaller battery to the ryobi

Yes, Ryobi does not have an M12 equivalent battery

Ryobi has a bit of advantage because of the battery 18 vs 12 volt but yes budget wise Ryobi...Also i don't like the big battery on the Ryobi in tight spots it wont work...

I have both which do I like most ? The milwaukee . The milwaukee can definitely get in tighter places . But if you like a low cost tool the Roy I is not that bad and it will save you time .

both perform equally for me

Im thinking of getting the ryobi since I have a single ryobi battery and charger just sitting there after leaving my drill at my old job. Atleast thats what i think happened to it. That way ill only need to get the tool which is $79 The only problem is that the battery is a 4ah, alot bigger than the 2ah it comes with. Hipefully the weight increase doesnt make it ridiculous to use

Yeah, you're not supposed to use a ratchet with a bolt going into a small pilot hole. Thats what the impact driver is for. Removing it from an already anchored bolt would be more realistic. Plus a 12v vs an 18v is not a apples to apples comparisons.

@jeffostroff

Even though it is 12v vs 18 v, they are the same 35 ft-lb torque and 250 RPM, why would that not be the same thing?

I bought into the Milwhackoff 12v system just for this ratchet and the FUEL 90 degree impact wrench. It's compact and easier to fit in tight spaces and the price isn't an immediate turnoff like Snap-On. I just find myself wishing for a Makita version because Milwaukee seems to cheap out on tools that aren't flagship models. Noticeable difference in build quality between the affordable brushed and overpriced FUEL stuff. Makita seems to keep quality and design the same across brushed and brushless versions of the same tool for less money. TTI is milking the brand name.

@@craigdoesstuff5270 Makita also has a CXT impact wrench. I use mine for my lightweight jobs, and it is much more powerful than a cordless ratchet. For heavier work I use more powerful impact wrenches. These cordless ratchets seem to be way underpowered for real life applications.

Only thing that bites is the way the battery is, i understand iits an 18v battery but you think ryobi would have oriented it where it was the least slim. If it was angled right with a compact 1.5ah battery it might fit into some tighter areas. I men if milwaukee made an 18v ratchet itd be the same way. Il probably get the ryobi just bc i have an air ratchet for when i need somthing slim and i already have a 18v ryobi set, i also have 1/2in 2767 high torque milwaukee impact wrench kit, came with 2 5ah batteries, a rubber boot, led light and an impact socket set on sale for 4.79. For the money you just cant beat that milwaukee impact wrench its a monster. Just got a milwaukee blower too but for most other tools ryibi is more than adequate. I might even get there new 1/2in hp impact wrench bc its so compact and powerful. But its hard to justify bc i have a decent air supply but sometimes you dont have access to the compressor and its nice to not have the hose sometimes.

Believe me though that rotating head they put on there is a great design feature that really does help move the battery out of the way in certain cases. But yes Ryo be is limited by their battery design that hasn't changed in years and they really need to come up with a slim battery elect those smaller Milwaukee M12 CP batteries that are basically little cylinders that would help tremendously
