    For anyone interested, 1800inch.lbs = 203Nm

    • +32

      Inch lbs. No wonder that country is a dumpster fire.

      • +2

        LOL it is marketing. It is like 5000 lumen projectors for $200. 250 ANSI (real lumens) or miles per gallon. 16 miles per gallon that is great. Until you realise it is 14.7L per 100kms.

        Thank the British Pirates. They sank the ship from France going to the USA, carrying all the Metric measurements.. :(

    Interesting, Ryobi by TTI is a Bunnings exclusive

    • +7

      In Australia. Hence this is a US import.

  • Saw this on clearance at bunnings yesterday. Can’t remember the exact price though. Reduced price on the misting fan too.

    • Which Bunnings store?

    • there is no P235A in bunnings :)

    I don't know man…. it looks very ozito to me….

    • +1

      I don't know man, it looks like Milwaukee to me

      • I don’t know man, looks very Philadelphia to me.

        • I don’t know man, looks very Mersey Valley to me.

    For someone starting out fresh (no tools & deciding on buying into an ecosystem), would this be a better deal: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/680241?

    And sell two of the batteries (leaving you with two) to recoup some costs?

    • +1

      Any good Makita deal? Already have a Ryboi drill and want to upgrade before sinking more money in the Ryobi ecosystem

      • Can’t agree more about Makita, Dewalt or Bosch blue.

    • +2

      If you're starting off fresh go with ozito for sure.

      • Agreed. I have one+ for decades and also some AEG. But these days Ozito is best bang for buck.

      • -3

        Or ALDI

        • +3

          Which is fine as long as you're prepared to line up at 8am Saturday when new tools are released.

          • +1

            @lgacb08: Just go to Bunnings and grab the Ozito equivalent that they will likely have price matched!

            That said, Aldi's specials are getting delayed so often that you never know when stock will be in. You might line up on a Saturday morning only to find they don't even have it! Then 2 weeks later on a Tuesday they suddenly have ample stock!

      For someone starting out fresh

      If you use it once a month like most people then Ozito.

    • +1

      Watch https://www.youtube.com/c/ProjectFarm

      Ryobi often comes out near the top for price/quality ratio.

    • I personally went for the 9 piece kit, think it's 599 or 699.

      Onoy thing I haven't used is the multitool. Though the torch is crap.

      I've bought a cordless hammer drill to add to the kit

    • +1

      if money isnt tight I'd go the Bosch Blue, it should last for decades of diy use and be a pleasure to use.

      • Thanks. I went for it as I need to drill into masonry as well.

  • Would this help me put drive screws in concrete?

    • +2

      Might want a 'rotary hammer drill' for concrete/brick.

    • +1

      yes but u need a hammer drill to make the holes for the screws/fasteners in concrete

      • So the Driver is powerful enough, just need the hammer drill?

        • +2

          You don't normally self-tap screws in concrete, you normally drill a hole and use a plug or ramset type screw. This will easily do those screws, but the harder part is getting the hole in the concrete to start with.

    Torques setting for my car wheel nuts is 120Nm, so this should do the job?

    • +1

      Except ofcourse I'm guessing you wouldn't be able to adjust the torque setting on this number…

    • i would use this to crack the bolts loose. but get a torque wrench ($30-40) to do up the wheels.

      unless this impact drill is like mine and has 3 settings - 1 = 60nm, 2 = 120nm, 3 = 240nm (i use mine to both do up and crack loose lugnut)

    • +4

      This is not the tool to use to undo nuts. It's a impact driver, you need a impact wrench

      • +1

        I use my driver to work on my motorcycle. A wrench would be better, but I'm not dealing with huge torque or fine tolerances. I always do things up and then check them with a hand wrench - but this saves a lot of time still.

        • Definitely, it will work for that and also bolts with the right adapter / bit. A drill can also be used to undo or drive in bolts.
          It's the exact purpose I bought this for when working on small engines.

          To use it for wheel nuts, it either wont work, or you'll break the adapter bit

    • Not designed for wheel nuts - you need one of the Ryobi Impact Wrenches for that.

  • I'm a tool noob, i need an all rounder to put flat packs together and sometimes screws onto a gyprock wall, which Ozito do you recommend? (i have a lot of Ozito batteries might as well stay in that ecosystem)

    • +2

      The basic Ozito drill driver should do the job. If this deal is around you or yours has a similar, great get: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/680530

      • Cheers, will check it out!

        • +1

          Use drill with the adjustable torque settings on the front, and speed control not only on the trigger, but on the top (2 speed torque setting).

          The Ryobi drill has all these settings, just make sure you put it on screw mode first.

          You'll get finger tip control when screwing into that thin chipboard. I normally put it on setting 1 (on the front dial), 1 on the top (speed/torque), and in screw mode (if you leave it on drill, the torque dial is disengaged).

          That way it'll screw in slow enough for you to hold it in place with your finger, and never strip the wood. Drill in until it clicks on its limiter, and it's perfectly firm without needing to hand tighten with a manual screwdriver.

    • If it's just for flat packs assembly and screwing in to gyprock (no stud behind), also consider something like this.
      https://www.bunnings.com.au/ozito-3-6v-cordless-screwdriver-…

      Less powerful, less likely to cause damage. You can follow the advice from UFO as well but for some they might find the 3.6v easier to handle.

    • +1

      Get a drill driver and use the right torque settings to stop the drill before the screw goes to deep. This impact drive is more of a brute force tool and if you aren't careful it will drive that screw straight through chipboard and gyprock if you aren't experienced.

  • I was about to buy the R18ID3-0, as my Impact driver has gone missing.
    3 speed
    220nm
    3200RPM
    3400 Impacts per minute.
    This is tempting, but I'll need one before March 8.

  • +1

    Can confirm, these Ryobi Impact Drivers are amazing!

    They push screws in with ease. No more stripping heads!

    They can push in 100mm screws with almost no effort!

    Very loud though.

  • Have this drill from USA.
    Mint has no speed setting and not being brushless.

    Works like a ozito for me but in Ryobi skin

  • What is the disadvantage of using this as a normal drill, if any?

    • +1

      The main disadvantage is the lack of a standard drill chuck to fit circular drill bits. This has a quarter inch hex collet to hold screw bits. You can buy special drill bits that will fit.

      Also it would be no good for drilling masonary - that requires a hammer drill.

    • +1

      That it can't accept a standard drill bit. Needs to have a quick connector bit.

    • +1

      Different tools. This is made for screws bolts etc.

      A normal drill is made for making holes. Both can do the other job but not as well

  • +3

    Not sure how relevant this is for you Aussies, but as a Kiwi I logged into Amazon.com and had the option to get a $25USD voucher for adding a Mastercard to my account. Worked out at $27.57 USD delivered to NZ including GST.

    • Where did the offer appear? Just after logging in?

      • Just at the top by the price above "About this item", it was a pop up box. Just logged in with a second account and didnt get the offer so assume its targeted. Both my accounts only had a VISA loaded on them.

  • Not a bad deal if you can wait - "Estimated Delivery: April 15, 2022 - May 11, 2022"

    • When I 1st looked, I'm sure it said Feb 20-28, then it said March 8 - 16.

  • +2

    These impact drivers are good (I have one and love it), but just remember there is no torque settings. It'll keep hitting on the rotate as long as you press the trigger or strip the screw or nut.

    For delicate work where you want full control, a drill driver is best.

    • Yes, it's an IMPACT driver. But the newer one and model down have 3 levels of settings. But yes, can easily strip the head off a screw if you're not careful or hold it firm.

    • +1

      I upgraded my 20yo single speed impact to a new 3 speed mainly to get more control on delicate jobs. The reduced speed has a marked effect on the torque output.No more stripped screws for me (so far);)

  • April+ delivery, yeah decent price on the normal $109 local version. Though this one appears to be the model before the current.

    • Yes, they still have the magnetized tray.
      I think I'll buy the R18ID3-0 at $119.

  • Please keep this mind, this is skin only. The battery for this skin is really horrible.

    I own Dewalt Dcf887 18V / Impact driver.

    • Definitely feels like Ryobi locked themselves into an outdated design with the One+ pillar.

  • +1

    Dam more torque on this than any honda 😂😂

  • +1

    Bought it, then noticed the shipping date is April-May. Time to cancel…

    • Yes, the date was originally mid to late Feb, then mid March.
      Off to Bunnings for me.

  • +1

    I think if you got in early, it may be quicker as looking on my order it has it marked as shipped.

  • Date saying Feb 24 again. I just ordered one, but I'm waiting to hear back from Bunnings if the Newcastle stores will drop to $50.

    • Received it last Monday.

      • When they said bare tool I still expected a box, mine arrived lose in a bag.

        • Are you sure? they should be in well packaging box. not sure why it is in a "bag". I knew it . Ryobi products from overseas can be funny.

  • Back in stock at $58.21 delivery March 11

    • Got it yesterday. ordered on 20th.. The shipping package was a joke. just a plastic bag… torn in a couple of places. really pathetic …
