- RYOBI breaks out their biggest saw yet with the RY405110. This RYOBI 40V HP Brushless 20-inch chainsaw is said to have the guts to take down up to a 36-inch tree. We'll see about that. RYOBI also claims this saw has the power of a 50-cc gas chainsaw. You can get this saw starting in May 2023 from the Home Depot for $379 (bare tool) or $479 for the kit with 8Ah battery.

I think my days of infernal combustion engine chainsaws are over. I love the idea of not needing to futz around with mixing fuel and pulling that damn starter cord. If I need to cut sometime bigger that this saw, I will hire someone. Thanks for the helpful review.
I concur. Gas powered is just a pain and dirty.
What if you need to use it for a 10 hour day?
@@Nerdysaxophoneplaya If I run a saw for 10 hours a day I've got bigger problems than gas vs. electric. 🤪I have two batteries. One on charger, one in saw. If I run one out before the other is charged than I take a break. I'm not as young as I used to be.
Fair enough. Arborist crews and loggers still haven't converted because electric isn't functional for legit work yet. Climbing saws are getting really close though
18:05 I understood that that brake also worked by mass and inertia. That your hand didn't have to activate it, the motion of the saw would activate it.
I would include the time to start the gas saw in the time it takes to make the big cut.
lol
WHo makes one cut? No one.
When you put your hand on that starter handle on the gas saw THAT is when you start the clock!
Finally Ryobi has metal bucking spikes!! 🎉
This video is a good example of why you don't want metal bucking spikes on a battery saw. When using the spikes you can hear the saw bog down which is over-heating the battery and will cause it to go into thermal shutdown. Pushing the saw like is not good for the motor or the battery.
@Pro1er I have both EGO 20" saws; and the biggest one WILL overheat rapidly in full bar cuts. The 'smaller' 20" one will run a lot longer before it overheats the battery.
VERY powerful saws; but the battery technology needs to 'catch up' to these high performance saws.
I watched the 27in log cut very carefully two times. Deduct 15 seconds from the Ryobi time, calling it an even 2 minutes, because in three of your Ryobi changes in the Cut attack angle, you did not stop the video while repositioning sides and cuts, as you did for the gas-powered chainsaw, for a total of 15 seconds spent not cutting. Whereas with the gas-powered chainsaw, you edited out the video footage of the time it took to reposition the saw each time. Add the start time and warm up time for the gas-powered chainsaw, and they're damn near even.
Thank you
The real info is always in the comments. Good job my dude
I just purchased 40 acres I am turning into a campground. I have the 14" Ryobi 40v saw and I just got the 20" as well. Also have the expand-it with 8" Bush cutter and I got the 8" earth auger. Over the next year I will put them all through the ringer and see how they perform.
I just bought 10 acres of land that I am going to be building my own home on and clearing land on wondering how your experience has been so far as someone who just purchased this chainsaw
I think the 18" is the sweet spot for this motor. I think it would have cut the log quicker.
Counted walk around time with Ryobi, but didn't with the Husk? Interesting 🤔
It would be interesting to compare it to the dewalt 20in flex volt saw
cant test the dewalt that much. chains are as rare as hens teath
The first thing you do with any Ryobi chain saws gas or electric is change out their garbage chains! This alone will improve their performance
BOOM! In fact this is an apples/oranges (no pun intended) comparison. The Husky has a pro chain. A similar chain on the Ryobi will wake it right up. That's exactly what I've done with my 18", my top-handle and even my 18-volt saw.
@@madpogueMe too! I've got a dozen different battery operated chainsaws; and I've switched them all over to full chisel chains. Absolutely amazing performance increase!
Ryobi has 40v chainsaws in 14, 16, 18 and 20 inch models. Are they using the same 40v motor or is there some measurable difference on each model? Would love to see specs on battery operated chainsaws so I could compare motors before purchasing. "Gas-Like" power is not very precise. Maybe chain speed and/or torque specs would be helpful for comparison.
Where are you Milwaukee. No post hole digger? Snow blower? 20" chainsaw?. No 15 amp battery?
Have you tested a Greenworks Pro 60v chainsaw and if so how does this compare to the Greenworks? I looked through some of your videos but couldn’t find anything.
You need to let the saw get up to full speed before you dive it into the wood. It helps
Is this saw a more powerful saw than the older unit which has the 18-inch bar or just a long bar , with a bigger battery ?
Sounds like Ryobi may have lowered the chain speed from the 18" (?), maybe geared it down for more torque (?).
This is amazing! I need this! I was about to buy the 18” version but the 20” is even better for the larger cutting capacity! When will I be able to buy this!
I see it now in the Home Depot
I think for the Gas Saw the timer should have been from Pull starting and revving the saw because the Battery saw was ready as soon as you pull the trigger
Yeah, but that only is true for the first cut. After that, most operators just leave the saw idling with the chain brake on.
Yes youre right there, thanks for the reply😊
@@Shoptoolreviewswait…. You mean brand new gas chainsaws don’t stall out on you every two minutes?!
Excellent honest review.
WE NEED A COMPARISON REVIEW! Of all the battery operated 20" saws!
I hope it's a lot more reliable than the 18 inch. I went through three of those and they all had the same issue where they refused to take power. The third one did that at the store right out of the box with the battery that it came with.
Let the tool do the job instead of forcing it to do something is not built to do... it'll work flawlessly
@@stevennihipali3607dude literally said a brand new one had the same issue out of the box. Unused. Don't think it's his fault...
@michaelmacdonald329 uh yeah... user error meaning misuse, no matter if it's nib! Anyone can read the one
I’m thinking to buy this tomorrow. Any gas powered chainsaw I had would never start. The B/D corded one I bought this summer keeps having the chain come off because the plastic screws already wore out. I have a Ryobi battery op saw 24v much smaller from 10 years ago. Still original chain never came off. I hope this one works as well as it looks.
THANKS FOR THE GREAT VIDEO. YOU REALLY TESTED & EXPLAINED, EVERY NOOK & CRANNY.
ALSO APPRECIATE THE SAFETY TIPS ON CUTTING & CHAIN BREAK FUNCTION ACTIVATION. FULLY SUBSCRIBED TO YOUR CHANNEL. THANKS AGAIN !!
I wanted the 20in, but it has been unavailable anywhere. I went with the 18in, and am not disappointed.
Great saw but tough to source replacement chains using the part number from manual. I purchased multiple chains which meet all of the stated specs and none of them fit on the sprocket at end of bar. The drive links on the OEM chain are very small. Extremely annoying
It's a 3/8" Low Profile chain. If the chains you purchased were 3/8" but NOT Low Profile, that would explain the misfit.
@@madpogue they were low profile chains, i got fed up and ordered 10 OEM ryobi chains for $25 per chain.
@@qqslp Hmm that's annoying. I've put aftermarket full-chisel 3/8" LP chains on all my Ryobi cordless saws, and it really wakes them up.
Most reviews with these battery chainsaws they push hard and bug them down so the time will always be off, you let the chainsaw weight and a few pounds of pressure and they cut even faster.
Didn't know chainnsaws had blades.
I've got two 50cc saws. A Stihl 260 Pro, and a 261. Both of those saws are considerably faster than that Ryobi saw. The saw ISN'T bad for a battery saw, but Ryobi is full of it by trying to claim that it's comparable to a gas 50cc saw.
Ive had 2 of the 18 inch and they both after 1 tree just wont cut. Just burns the wood. Dont know if the oiler is spent or what.
I wonder if the bars are interchangeable on this system? Id love to buy a 20" and be able to put a 14" bar and chains set, but it seems like the sprocket may be different compared to the other saws...that would be a shame
When is this going to be available? Finally metal bucking spikes. Will the 18" bar fit?
How does this saw compare to other cordless saws of similar size and or price from other bands like Ego, Milwaukee, Dewalt, Makita and so on? I fully expect those other brands to be better, but by how much is what I’m curious about.
I have a couple of the 18" EGO saws; and my 20" EGO saws are both much more technologically advanced; which justifies to me; their higher cost.
But this Ryobi looks like they stuck a 20" bar on their 18" saw!
Where is the justification for the ridiculously high price of the Ryobi?
Is this the same motor and gears as the 14" and 18"? What makes it difference in power wise? I have the 14" from like 2017.
the oiler screw location ?
by any chance are you gonna have a review of the new bauer high torque impact wrench?
Any idea of when they will release this saw?
When can I buy one? Video says it should have come 2-3 months ago. Their website says "coming soon" with no timeline
I see it is available now in Home Depot it is September
Shoot my husky is brushless and takes liquid type of batteries
Mine too! I will say, for camping and such these battery saws are great. But you start getting into large wood, especially bucking rounds, you’re chewing through batteries. Tech isn’t there… yet.
@@likeaboss882 battery tech definitely not there yet. But I can’t wait until it is! I just love all tools. Gas or battery hahah
thats not the oiler hole
Let the saw reach max rpm before u stick it in the wood ur dad never teach you let the saw do the work
3/8"LP not 3/8"
Electric is the way to go for many users.I just wish they didn't sound like a toy with a plastic gear box.
That motor stalls out much too easily. Disappointing as I was interested in buying one.
Why is their 18v one the only one with a toolless chain tensioner?!
I have the 18v chainsaw with the toolless chain tensioner, and I prefer the 2 bolts on the bar with the 40v models. They just seem to hold better and are easier to adjust. But I grew up with gas chainsaws so maybe I'm just more used to the 2 bolts on the bar setup.
Mid July and still waiting. :(
I see it available now in Home Depot
😃
Thanks for watching.
Cant compare them when one has brand new blade... You had already said they other ways pretty sharp meaning nit new
This wasn't meant to put them head to head to see which is best. We know the Husqvarna (even with a not-new blade) is faster and better at larger projects. We just wanted to give an idea of the difference. Thanks for watching.
@@Shoptoolreviews Actually, if the Husky chain (NOT a blade) has been sharpened, it could easily be sharper than the new chain on the Ryobi. And more important, the Husky has a pro chain. Put a similar chain on the Ryobi and the result would be quite different.
nice chainsaw.
Not for the price!
When your cutting you stand to the side of ya chainsaw so u don’t get hit in the head or cut ya leg off I think u better go an learn from someone who noes how to cut logs
nope
#1: Is the oiler a variable rate oiler? You did not show it. If it is NOT a variable rate oiler then you are forced to buy VERY expensive "bar oil". IF there is a variable rate oiler, then you can used old gear oil, old used transmission oil, oil used engine oil which is FREE. When bar oil is $20/gallon and rising, being able to use USED oil which is FREE, adds up in a BIG BIG BIG Hurry.
#2: Sorry, you are just wrong about kickback. Kickback ONLY happens on the TOP quadrant of the nose of the chainsaw bar. ZERO kickback happens on the bottom quadrant of the nose of the chainsaw bar.... Every lumber/arborist teacher course will show you this. The chatter from the nose which you are calling kickback is NOT kickback. The chatter is due to the fact that when the chain goes OVER the nose radius, the depth of cut it takes is GREATER than on the flat of the blade creating a more violent force than the rest of the bar. What you might also be calling kickback is you are not holding your saw straight so when full depth and held at an angle, one side of the top of the nose of the bar is rubbing on one side of the buck cut which does indeed push the nose up slightly. This is also why one wants Full CHISEL chain and not safety barf (not safe)chain as it allows the nose to cut a different direction lessening kickback instead of trying to walk up the cut like full comp does when You and I are not cutting perfectly square(nah, I would never do that ... oh right... yea I would). Safety chain AKA full comp should only be used on a limbing saw with their super short 12" or 14" blades where kickback is a SERIOUS threat.
PS: Battery saws work for limbing purposes only currently(barely), bucking requires far more power than what battery saws currently show unless you are the VERY occasional use home owner. If you need Chords of wood/year, battery saws are NOT the way to go currently. Not even close.
should be a variable rate oiler, my 18in has the variable rate oiler.
@@chubbysumo2230 Ok good to know
For this tool did you notice any oil leaks compared to the 18 in. ? Especially in/near the battery compartment?
Please don't call it a blade it's a chainsaw not a BLADESAW !!!
It must suck being a salesman
Junk
