Designed to deliver high torque, this cordless impact drill is ideal for many tasks that may involve fastening and loosening of wood screws, decking screws, bolts and much more that a drill would struggle to handle. With 200Nm of torque, 4x the power of a typical drill, it comes in handy for most projects.

When we do hands-on field testing we find that while RYOBI underperforms some of the top brands, they offer an incredible value. Pros appreciate tools like the Ryobi 18V brushless impact driver. It provides plenty of power for most tasks and costs just $99 for the bare tool.

There are two styles of battery with Ryobi units the 18v range and the 36v range. These are different batteries and are not interchangeable. Every tool that states it is 18v can interchange its battery with other 18v units and 36v tools can interchange their battery with other 36v tools.

Multi-tools provide a few important benefits, including the following: Multi-tools keep everything together and prevent you from losing any of the individual items. Multi-tools are easy to access and use. Multi-tools eliminate the need to select and purchase separate tools.

A multi tool is ideal for small cutting jobs such as cutting skirting boards and wooden trim, nails, copper pipe, plastic pipe, cutting holes in plasterboard. That said, a multi tool is not ideal for cutting wood or board that needs a long straight edge.

The most obvious difference between an impact driver and drill is that an impact driver is designed to drive fasteners, while the drill is designed to bore holes. However, some drills also have a screwdriver function.

Impact drivers have one main function, driving screws fast and well. Drills, also sometimes called drill drivers, can drive screws, too, but not as effectively as impact drivers. Drills are much better suited for boring holes.

Ryobi vs DeWalt – General Tool Reputation Both Ryobi and DeWalt both have a good reputation for making great tools. They simply serve different markets. DeWalt is known as one of the go-to brands for professional tradesmen. Their “Yellow-and-Black” coloring is well-recognized across the industry.

RYOBI began selling cordless power tools nearly 30 years ago and has since grown into a sustainability leader in the battery-powered lawn and garden industry. They became an exclusive partner of The Home Depot in 2000 and continue to innovate every single year on new cordless power technology.

The Badaptor DeWalt to Ryobi Battery Adaptor allows customers to use their existing collection of DeWalt® batteries with an extensive range of Ryobi® power tools, eliminating the need to buy, store, charge and maintain a new collection of batteries alongside the ones they already own.

Users that have Ryobi 18V cordless tools with old and weak batteries can now power these tools using powerful DeWalt 20V MAX compatible batteries. However, such adapters are not officially supported by either DeWalt or Ryobi, so care must be taken... Published: September 24, 2022.
