This review is from: Ryobi P100 ONE+ 18V 1.5m-Ah NiCd Battery (130224028) (Misc.)
What a great battery for the price and if you have time to wait free shipping. Cheaper than Home Depot or Menard's without the driving hassel.

This review is from: Ryobi P100 ONE+ 18V 1.5m-Ah NiCd Battery (130224028) (Misc.)
I bought into the ryobi 18v system because they share a battery type among so many tools. Sadly, one of the batteries died after a year of light use and they want a lot of money for replacements. I have a lot of friends who have bought the same sets and ended up with a dead battery after a year, so anecdotally it seems the quality isnt that good. I have dewalt tools and batteries that are still working, with reduced output, after 4-5 years.

Battery life: what to expect,

This review is from: Ryobi P100 ONE+ 18V 1.5m-Ah NiCd Battery (130224028) (Misc.)
I've had the 18v Ryobi stuff for 3 - 4 years. 3 batteries, flashlight, drill/driver, reciprocating saw and circle saw. Heavy use of the drill/driver, probably 15 pounds of deck screws (built 2 decks). The batteries have served well but now need replacement. The circle saw is the one exception; not a good application because the battery drain is too heavy except in very light wood. Note that the batteries should not be left in the charger indefinitely, take them out when the green light comes on or they will deteriorate.
