Hank and I work hard to bring you the best deals on the products you want seven days a week. Power tool deals are the most convoluted since they’re offered in a constant rotation of discounts, and combo kits, with free or discounted batteries thrown in. I cover Ryobi quite often. I’ve tested several of the brand’s tools, but I’ve bought even more on my own. If I needed a new power tool right now, there’s an 87.3% chance, I would order a Ryobi.
Even with as much time as I spend shopping for these things, I still can’t always recognize something as an OK or a killer deal without doing some digging. It’s almost always the batteries that make things complicated. I’m only going to focus on 18-volt batteries today. If you just search batteries on Ryobi’s website, you would think they don’t really offer that many. It shows the standard One+ Lithium Ion batteries in 1.5, 2.0, and 4.0 Ah. It then shows the One+ High Performance in 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 6.0, 8.0, and 12.0 Ah, but some of them are Edge batteries.
If you look around online, you will find a variety of Lithium+ batteries that don’t come up on Ryobi’s page. But if you Google them specifically, you can then find them apparently hidden on Ryobi’s website. I WILL GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS—but not today. Today we’re concerned with what is actually on sale, so you can get a great deal.
Let me start again. For the most part, batteries are the big investment when picking a tool allegiance. All y’all who’ve been buying power tools for a while have a pile of chargers, don’t you? Don’t get suckered in with a free charger, unless you don’t have one. If you’re in that boat and you’re new to Ryobi, this ONE+ starter kit for $79.00 is a pretty good deal. A 2.0Ah battery has a retail price of $69.97 and the 4.0Ah is normally $99.00. And I assign maybe 10 bucks in value to the charger, but it retails for $34.95.
But wait, I have another proposition if you don’t need the charger. You can buy this, ONE+ HP impact driver for $89.97 and get a free 2Ah battery. So you’re buying a $90 tool and getting the $70 battery thrown in. Ryobi does this all the time. If you want to build your battery stores, this is the way to do it. The ONE+ 18V cordless 4-tool combo kit for $159.00 is a nice step up. It gets you a drill, a small impact driver, a circular saw, two batteries and a flashlight.
If you feel like going big today, then this ONE+ high performance impact wrench kit for $486.20 gets you an additional 4.0Ah HP battery free. You get three 4.0Ah HP batteries which list for $119 apiece. You get a 2.0Ah HP battery, which goes for $89.00 and you get a Brushless impact that is $179 on its own. I’ve listed 10 deals below that all look good, but you can do the math for yourself to decide what works best for you. Personal note: as much as I like the run time of high-capacity batteries, most tools are more comfortable to use with a 2.0Ah battery.
