Ryobi RSI-18 soldering portable iron on test

Ғылым және технология

If you are a regular view to my channel you may have noticed I like my Ryobi tools. I feel they are good value for money and are extremely durable and reliable. This soldering iron is no exception!
I plan to use it in theLand Rover as inn. the past I need to run out a power cable so as I could use my mains powered Weller.
I couple of things I noted about tRyobi though are the following:
1) The cable is a bit short for my liking
2) The cable isn't very flexible
3) There is no cleaning sponge location
Apart from that it seems to be a great bit of kit. apparently is has a 82cm cable not 83cm as I stated in the video!
Run time with a 2amp battery is 92mins and 230mins for a 5amp.
Below are links to the main Ryobi site and a link to Amazon from where I bought the iron.

    Thanks Mike, as you say it's for quite a niche set of circumstances really as it's a corded cordless soldering iron, so doesn't offer much advantage over a mains device when you're in the house or workshop with a ready AC supply ! I share your concern over the cord too, I have a similar problem with a inexpensive pyrography iron I bought, but at least that has the excuse that it is a 240v supply not 18v, though I suppose the current is more relevant ? Should be ideal for the Landy though !

    Hi, yes, cordless corded! Handy for the truck or up a tree but for the bench it would be a mains powered device for me. That said the Ryobi will have its uses. Thanks for the comments and for watching 👍🏽
