Brushless model, doesn't seem like it's out yet in Australia and is Ryobi's new brushless range. Not sure how warranty will work. Note there is a wait time until 22 January for stock.

Brushless drill driver (no hammer) also available here for $141.07:

Seems like a good deal at that price….too bad I've bought the bunnings brushed Ryobi impact driver already….

    Thanks OP

    … but I'm very keen on the Ryobi hedge trimmer coming up at a decent price 😔

  • +1

    How does this compare to the regular brushless? I am looking to get into a cordless ecosystem and Ryobi is on my list.

  • What is the difference between this and an impact wrench?

    • I think the impact wrench has more torque.

    • +1

      Torque and also the chuck.

      Impact drivers like the one in this post commonly have a 1/4 inch hex bit holder (female) that you can insert a multitude of hex bits to drive fasteners or even drill holes etc.

      Impact wrenches commonly have a 3/8 or 1/2 inch (male) socket holder that you can attach a multitude of impact sockets onto. Useful for high torque applications such as quickly loosening or tightening larger diameter fasteners.

      • My Ryobi impact wrench did also come with a 1/2" square drive to 1/4" hex bit adapter.

    • +1

      Impact Wrenches has more torque for like bolts and nuts. Impact drivers are for driving screws into shit…really well and a lot more forgiving

    • Impact Wrench for sockets, Impact Driver for Screwing. Although both can be used for both.

  • +7

    Part of the appeal (for me, at least) of Ryobi, is the 6 year replacement warranty at Bunnings. Walk in with the dead tool, and walk out with a new one.

    • Wish this was true. My Ryobi pole chainsaw 2 years into a 5 year warranty uses plastic tabs to hold the chain guide (unbelievable, but true). The plastic tabs naturally snapped off. We moved house and I can't find the receipt anywhere. That being said it's got a build date sticker well within the warranty period. New model Ryobi now has metal reinforced tabs, and I want to swap it as the old model is not fit for purpose and well within warranty time frame. Ryobi want nothing to do with it.

      • Can you find the transaction record on your bank statement? That should be enough

        The serial number may also be enough if you registered the warranty

      • If you registered it for the 5 year warranty you upload the receipt. So get it from there?

        As for the no receipt thing, that's pretty common for warranty to be denied like that. Even stuff with lifetime warranty often has similar requirements to show proof of purchase.

      • if you dont have the receipt you can just check your bank statement for the purchase date (and time) and your local bunnings will be able to bring up your order no issues…i did that at my local store and they had the re-printed receipt at the front desk by the time i arrived with my faulty powertool.

        As far as swapping for a newer model because it's better, i'm not sure 'change of mind' that's ever covered under warrranty.

        • Bought with gift cards and the serial number is right where it gets scratched off with branches.

          The reality is I probably don't have a leg to stand on, but it sucks that you can clearly see:

          1. Plastic should never be used to hold a chainsaw bar. It's not built / fit for purpose. They know this. Heaps of bad reviews / complaints. New model has a metal reinforcement ..as does my $50 Aldi pole saw.

          2. The build date is visible. It's within the standard warranty time frame. So it has died in normal warranty time frame.

          Without a receipt I didn't expect Bunnings take responsibility (though I think they were the sole Ryobi distributer in that time frame). However, I did expect Ryobi to take ownership of their rubbish product. It's actually dangerous.

      • Yes, the terms of the 6 year warranty require registration. I was similarly caught out with a Ryobi electric chainsaw. Now I register them as soon as I open them up to check the serial number.

    • FYI the 6 year warranty is only activated after you register the product within a certain timeframe. I forgot to register it within that timeframe so am left with the shorter warranty on several of my Ryobi products…

  • Looks decent, new HP range. Total torque equates to 192nm if that helps

  • Not sure if this is “better” than the local brushless version, which has a speed setting (including Deck Drive).

    This might be newer, but looks like a cheaper model.

  • What is this new hp range?

    • It's Magical.

  • +1

    Not necessarily better than the existing brushless line up, but the HP range is designed to be lighter and more compact, whilst sacrificing some torque and features.

    • yeah - overseas they have a couple more brushless impact driver options too. Whilst the one we have is good and has a great feature set, it is quite large for what it is - would be nice to have more compact brushless options to choose from.

  • +1

    Hoping this range starts coming out here soon.

    There have been quite a few new tools added to the overseas range that makes it hard to want to purchase some of the skins now as there are brushless equivalents now out in other markets.

  • Still waiting on the cordless glue that has been out for a few months overseas.

  • 175 cordless tools in the range…
    …challenge accepted

  • Its even cheaper now at $116.86

    Or someone has a combo Brushless Drill and Impact Driver with 2 1.5 Ah Batteries, Charger and Bag for $280
