    I just took one of these apart with some confidence thanks to having watched this a while back - and I actually managed to fix the thing. It had been in use for about 3 years already. As best I can tell, it failed because the oil inside had gotten so sticky and old that the motor was going into overload protection due to the increased resistance.
    I oiled everything back up and it is back to work! Thanks for the video!

    For those Aussies (not Austrians) playing along at home... Techtronics have done the same Ridgid deal with Bunnings, except that they're branded as AEG. So Bunnings are the exclusive distributors of both Ryobi and AEG/Ridgid here.
    Could be worse than Ryobi, though. Could be Ozito. Or 909. Or Worx. Or Wesco.

      @TheKodiak72 8 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      +w0mbles I thrash my Ozito 14v drill and never had a problem, had more issues with my Dewalt 14v drill. Their palm sander is pretty good too so I got nothing bad to say about Ozito and if something fucks up, instead of warranty they will usually just straight swap you for a brand new one.
      After seeing this video... Your better off with a Ozito, properly made in the same factory as Ryobi but half the price.

    • @w0mblemania
      @w0mblemania 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      TheKodiak72 I've got a few Ozito tools myself. The heat gun is quite decent. The screwdriver does the job, but is pretty dodgy in terms of build quality and drive run-out. The rotary tool is OK too, though the ergonomics are rough. The glue gun is bare-bones, but it works well enough.
      But overall, they're definitely at the bottom end in terms of parts and build quality. I wouldn't want have to rely on them. Weekender stuff.
      I do agree that it's dead easy to replace the Ozito stuff it goes bad. Same can be said for almost anything bought at Bunnings. Even the high priced stuff.

      +w0mbles Yeah pretty easy to replace anything that breaks in Australia thanks to the Australian Consumer Law.
      I generally stick to the Makita stuff for tools I use a lot, but bought an Ozito rotary hammer for a small bathroom demo job that came up.
      The first one fried (magical blue smoke feature) and I took it back for an instant replacement. No 2 finished the job and I've still got it for the next reno some time down the track. For a tool I might use a half dozen times it's cheaper than hiring one.

    • @pretenda
      @pretenda 8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      +w0mbles Thanks for the info. I bought a Ryobi vacuum cleaner from Bunnings. Worst. Purchase. Ever. It is so damn loud its not funny. Even with hearing protection on you get a headache after a few minutes. I'd forgive it if it actually worked. But it sucks .. If you get what i mean. I end up using the damn thing as a broom then pulling the head off and hoping the thing sucks the stuff up just through the hose. I should have taken it back complaining about how useless the thing is, but oh well. That's what $80 gets you.
      Having said that, I've also got a Ryobi C1 brad nailer. Seems to go alright so far. Very rarely does it jam.

    In my years working as a tool repair technician, I've actually seen the "o-ring behind the wear ring" trick fairly often. It provides a steady pressure against the cylinder wall to ensure maximum performance and maximum lifespan of the wear ring. Kinda smart, if ya tinker on it. 😉
    As to the filled *pits,* I believe that if you ground that thing apart, you just might find some ballance weights in there.
    We had a big Gaylord (reinforced cardboard box) that was full of those *aluminum* housings which we would, upon its filling, take to the recyclers for a pretty penny. There's a lot goes into those housings and, your correct in that it's the strength of the whole tool, giving reinforcement to the shell and everything else. Anyway...
    We had one fellow who, upon his second trip to the "Doc in the box" to have a nail removed from his hand (you'd think he'd learn to keep the pointy end pointing elsewhere, by then...) was informed that if it happened a third time, he need not bother returning to work in the afterwards. Twice in as many months, I believe his sneaking out the back door before taking the mandatory drug screen just might have had something to do with it. 😆 🤣
    "Clinker" makes me think of two things... 1, when I'm working on my coal forge, the fellow smith's out there will commiserate and 2, the infamous scene from "A Christmas Story" when Daren McGavin is fighting with his great nemesis, the coal heater in the basement. 😀

I get about two years from the batteries and I send them back and the three year warranty covers the replacement all you do is pay a small fee and shipping.I have not had a problem with any of the tools that get used almost everyday.

    German company I used to work for almost always uses o-rings behind their wear rings. They use the o-ring to push out the wear ring a little bit, and keep a bit of pressure on the cylinder as the part cycles back and forth. would get somewhere around 2-4 million cycles (or more depending on the customer) before they needed to be replaced.

    Never had a problem with the Ridgid warranty procedure. Go to HD with your part, they look it over, do some documentation, take it, and you get a new part mailed to you directly. Took about 3 weeks to get a new battery, but beats having to personally mail it in on your own dime, or buying a new one. :o)

      +Ira T Bought a Ridgid kit which included a recipro saw, 7" skilsaw, hammer drill and an impact driver, plus chargger and two batteries. $400.00. Thought it was the deal of the century. found out the batts heat up enuf that they shut off at the half way point (they have a gas gauge) won't run the tool till they cool, and won't recharge either. I bought an extra battery ($99.00!) because I thought that three would be about right...two could be cooling while I was still working. THEN, I found out that the lifetime warranty did NOT apply to the new battery. The two that came with the tool had it, but not the extra one. I called Ridgid...customer service rep said "tough shit" in so many words, so I used the tools for their intended purpose, then returned them. No more Ridgid for me.

    • @IraTopp
      @IraTopp 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      It clearly states on the HD website that none of the individual battery kits have the lifetime warranty, only the ones in kits do. Even the HD employees know that.
      Out of curiosity, why did you not want to keep the deal of the century? Why not spend the $99 and get a drill and battery combo, sell the extra drill, and keep the battery? They literally have the best warranty in the industry, and who else even covers batteries that come in kits?
      The warranty is the reason I keep going with Ridgid. The cost of replacing a tool or battery is one less thing I have to worry about.

  • @Krankie_V
    @Krankie_V 7 ปีที่แล้ว +55

    I know they're not pro quality, but for the price point, these ryobi tools last pretty good. I know a guy who remodels homes for a living, he uses this brand because they're cheap and tools sometimes get lost. He says he gets a couple years out of the ones which don't get lost. I've got some around the house that I bought for my dad, and they've been pretty good. A lot better than the craftsman and black&decker stuff he had before. Only issue is that a couple years later one of the batteries quit accepting a charge.
    The nice thing is that they all take the same batteries. I know the other brands are doing that now too, but ryobi was doing it first and even the older ones will accept the newer batteries, and vice versa. I've been happy with them. They certainly outperformed all my expectations based on the price point. Once they do break, I will buy more, because we already have a bunch of batteries for them, they're inexpensive, and they work just fine for non-professional use. They seem to be the same quality as the low-grade cheaper dewalt tools. Actually, the drill chuck is better on the ryobi than my cheap dewalt drill.

    • @raabsand
      @raabsand 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Krankie V the same battery for all was a big selling point for me. I have tools that I got for free that are 20 years old (blue) that had dead ni-cd batteries. I put my lithium battery in them and they work like new. Plus quality isn't that bad. As a hobbyist they're perfect for me. Plus they have many odd tools that are nice in a pinch

I've been pleasantly surprised by them and the batteries. They finished the job I was doing and have held up to a years worth of fairly rigorous farm service. Picked up compatable bare recip saw from eBay for like 20 bucks and used the hell out of it. I know they're cheap crap but they've been shockingly good cheap crap.

The RYOBI AirStrike 18 ga. brad nailer is my first RYOBI tool and I've been quite impressed with it. The price was right, compared to others and I've put about 10,000 nails through it and never had a jam. That same Honeywell microswitch behind the trigger appears in a number of RIDGID tools also. Amazon sells a 6-pack of that microswitch for ten bucks so I keep a few around.

    I have been using Ryobi tools for 13 years, but I do mostly residential work in HVAC, so they only see relatively light to moderate duty. I still have the first Ryobi drill I bought 13 years ago and it works just as good as day one, although not as pretty. Favorite part about Ryobi is, although they've changed batteries, the connections have stayed the same. I can use the new Lithium batteries in my old Ryobi drill and I can use my old batteries in my new impact drills/sawzaw etc.... although they don't last long anymore. Good tools, maybe not for heavy duty work, but for my trade, can't beat the value.

    The Ryobi 18V weed-eaters, blowers, hand-vac, and 2-speed cordless drill are amazing...the circular saw is a bit underpowered but does nicely for the occational 2x4 here and there.
    Even the dewalt tools don't do that well in the ones I have tried, when I worked at a college we went thru 4 batteries just taking one door off its hinge screws and reattaching it and still had to finish by hand.

      It does seem to do better on the "big" batteries (silver ones that are lithium but physically as big as the old NiCad)...but yeah it's pushing what batteries can do.
      Ideal for an apartment or minimal DIY though -- the only time I've really put mine to work was sawing an old broken desk in half to fit in the dumpster more easily. That took 2 batteries but I was quite content since I only use it maybe twice a year for very light work.
