This deal is back.

A fair bit of stock, but very widely scattered, with nil stock in N.T.

Might be worth checking over the day to see if stock becomes more widely available.

    is it worth buying these and using the adaptor for Ryobi? unfortunately stuck in the ryobi ecosystem

                @bargaino: All good.I didnt know these existed. I used to remove the metal sheet surrounding the AA batteries to get me thin metal sheet. But that was long ago.

    • Rogerwilco on 09/05/2024 - 13:47

      I have one of these adapters, well 2 actually. They do work but being 3D printed they aren't that good at clipping in and out of the Ryobi tools. My first one was that poorly printed that the seller sent me another, which was a lot better but still no where near as easy to properly clip in or out of the tools as the Ryobi batteries are. Sometimes you have to fiddle with it to get it to lock in properly, and sometimes the same getting it out again, however for the price in the link found by CoenJC I think it's worth it.

      • John Doh on 09/05/2024 - 17:27

        Agree, I have one and use it with the lawn mower as an additional battery, A little fidly, but worth it IMO. If you are a regular user tho using multiple times a day, a ryobi battery would be good to have.

    • rootk1t on 09/05/2024 - 14:26

      As someone who was about to buy a Ryobi set, may I ask what's so unfortunate about Ryobi ecosystem? I thought the ecosystem is the appeal…

        I've got a fair few items from Ryobi but for the amount of times I use them it's not worth it for me
        Work in tech so seldom use these so Ozito would be more cost effective

      • John Doh on 09/05/2024 - 17:28

        Both batteries and goods are expensive. Ozito does the job at a cheaper price.

      • tunzafun001 on 09/05/2024 - 18:22

        I had 2 Ryobi pole saws. Both used plastic locator pins to hold the chain bar in place. Both snapped. I rang and emailed Ryobi (as it was dangerous…once lose the chain goes flying. They had no care at all.

        Returned and bought an Ozito and an Aldi version. Both heaps better products..

            @revheadgl: Shows when i switch the store to Sydney. When i choose a store that shows stock in Adelaide, gives the errors I mentioned. So seems its location specific

            • revheadgl on 09/05/2024 - 13:04

              @Chirag T: That is odd. I am in Canberra but tried switching to Adelaide and it is indeed not showing up.

              Might be worth a phone call if you are close to one of the stores and you can pick up from there.

            • John Doh on 09/05/2024 - 17:29

              @Chirag T: Yes it is location specific. Wont show up if there is no stock nearby.

    My charger has just died on me but I definitely don't need any more 2ah. Having said that, the battery comes free as the charger is $25 on its own. Bah

    Some interesting specs for power output in watts on the batteries from Einhells website.

    2.0AH 450 watts.
    2.5AH 720 watts
    4.0AH 900 watts
    5.2AH 1260 watts
    6.0AH 1350 watts
    8.0AH 1350 watts

    The new sealed batteries.
    3.0AH 900 watts
    4.0AH 900 watts.

    • Bii on 09/05/2024 - 21:08

      18V x 2.0A = 36W

      What am I missing here?

      • revheadgl on 09/05/2024 - 21:44

        I just saw these figure on Enhells website and thought it interesting.

        This is definitely above my pay grade, which is zero, but I think it is what the battery is capable of out putting for a short burst?

        Hopefully there are some electro mechanical types here than can explain it, as I really am out of my depth here. And I finished school in 1975, lol.

      • Prong on 10/05/2024 - 06:37

        The above wattages are what the battery can output.

        For example, the 18V 4Ah (72Wh) battery can output 900W.

        The battery is made up of two strings of 18650 cells in parallel. So 5x batteries in series to get 18V. Then two of those in parallel. 5S2P.

        The cells are each rated for 25A output. So each string of 5 can output 18V x 25A = 450W. Two strings in parallel can do 900W.

        The 2Ah battery is just one string of 5x cells so 450W.

        The 2.5Ah uses 5x 20650 IXR21/66 MH46259 2.6Ah cells in series. Each cell is rated for 40A, which gives the 720W output.

          Appreciate for the explanation, thank you!

        • Bii on 10/05/2024 - 23:32
          +1

          I forget that the voltage is fixed while the current can be changed based on the load like phone battery that can last from as little as a few hours to days. So, for the 4Ah 72Wh battery at 72W output will last 1hr, while at 900W output (max) will last 4.8 mins some sort.

          Thanks for the in depth explanation. I think I want to expand my knowledge of battery power and start some simple DIY battery kits out of these batteries.

    • fruitloafer on 10/05/2024 - 12:11

      I've been waiting for that 5.2ah 1.26Kw unit to go on sale but it never does. Don't know if anything will draw that much power (possibly angle grinder, garden tools etc) but its one of the highest power output batteries for any tool brand at that price.

      Someone has put together a really good battery spreadsheet of a lot of brand batteries and their power outputs here for reference (not just makita)
      https://www.reddit.com/r/Makita/comments/110p7nt/makita_18v_…

      • revheadgl on 10/05/2024 - 13:21

        I have never seen the single 5.2's on sale. But there is a bit of a deal on a 2 pack. They are $199 so a saving of $39. https://www.bunnings.com.au/ozito-pxc-18v-5-2ah-battery-twin…

        I will check out that spreadsheet now that Prong has kindly explained how it all works, lol.

      • Prong on 16/05/2024 - 14:14

        Hmmmm now I am thinking about a DIY adapter to turn 2x 2.5Ah batteries into one 5Ah.

        I believe the 5.2Ah uses the same 20650 IXR21/66 MH46259 2.6Ah cells as the 2.5Ah. Just the 2.5Ah under rates the capacity because of the higher output rating.

        2x 2.5Ah in parallel would give 1440W output! Better even than the 6Ah and 8Ah Max batteries that use 21700 cells.

        The dual 2.5Ah batteries would need to still both have their individual BMS but in theory there should be no issue as long as they are at the same charge level when you start.

        The dual 2.5Ah battery would be a bit larger so won't be a good fit for some tools. The 36V Ozito chainsaw would have room for one dual 2.5Ah setup on each side though!

        I might have to rig something up and give it a try…

        • fruitloafer on 16/05/2024 - 14:25

          the more important question is whether any of the tools would draw that much. video from tool scientist

          https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNKlEHLwldE

          and he tests the power draw for a lot of Milwaukee tools. most use a lot less than 1000w in typical use. some use more when you really push them but this is in my view not how you should or would use them normally (and probably is counterproductive).

          this is probably why Makita 18v have stuck to using very conservative 18650 cells with a max current of 40amps (on their 5ah battery) to provide only 720w (excluding the fact that Makita 18v side by side has very little space than you cannot fit 21700 cells inside of them).

      • vash12 on 09/05/2024 - 14:45

        Sweet, I guess it’s safe to use a battery adapter. Stuck in ryobi ecosystem.

        • revheadgl on 09/05/2024 - 14:50

          It will be. All the Ozito tools I own only have 2 terminals. + and - so the battery definitely has low voltage cut out.

  • OkWing99 on 09/05/2024 - 16:46

    Don't buy the 2.5ah. Not worth the money. I have a few of them in a junk drawer. Get 4ah.

    • XxBargainHuntaxX on 09/05/2024 - 16:55

      I find em useful for a quick drill, leaf blower and/or hedge trimmer job, but yeah wouldn’t waste my time with these on a lawnmower or something heavier

  • Jaxx on 09/05/2024 - 16:50

    stupid question but would this replace a 12V 1200mAh Ozito battery (old model I guess)

    • revheadgl on 09/05/2024 - 16:59

      No it wont. Completely different battery in all physical dimensions, and even if it did fit, it would fry your tool pretty quickly.

      From what I have read, they are the same internally. They generally sell them as a promo item when matching Aldi but sometimes have the available at other times.
