  • The New Ryobi 18V HP Hammer Drill PBLHM101K features a brushless motor, 750 in-lbs. of torque, 0-31,000 BPM, 2-speed gearbox delivers up to 2,100 rpm, 24-position clutch, and a ratcheting metal chuck.
    The18V ONE+ HP Brushless 1/2" Hammer Drill Driver features the brand’s most advanced battery electronics to date in order to give this tool cooler operation, better runtime, and quicker drilling.
    The 18V ONE+ HP Brushless 1/2" Hammer Drill Driver features a two-speed gearbox that delivers between 0-500 rpm in low speed, and between 0-2,100 rpm in high speed. It delivers between 0-31,000 BPM, drilling through masonry faster than the brand’s previous tools.
    An all-metal, keyless, ratcheting 1/2″ chuck holds bits securely while simultaneously allowing for quick and convenient bit changes. This chuck will not get chewed up like plastic ones if used in overly tight situations where the chuck might rub on other material.
    The Ryobi HP 18V Hammer Drill sells exclusively through The Home Depot-either in-store or online. It comes packaged as either a bare tool (PBLHM101B), kit (PBLHM101K), or as part of a two-tool combo set (PBLCK02K).
    You can pick up the Ryobi PBLHM101K hammer drill kit for $179. It comes with a 4Ah High-Performance battery, charger, auxiliary handle, and tool bag. It also comes with Ryobi’s 3-year warranty.

    I enjoy your videos, you present the pros and cons very well. I love my green tools as a serious DIY guy. Some I’ve returned and bought pro grade brands because the tool wasn’t up to snuff. I can appreciate an honest review and not be butt hurt if it fails a test. I’ve made a few purchases based on your reviews and they were spot on. Thanks from NC.

    Good review. I bought the last Ryobi brushless hammer drill a few years ago when it was offered with the two batteries and a free tool. It’s still meets my needs. I do like the HP line of tools and will move up as needed. One of the thing the new HP line did was take away the magnet on the base of the tool, I have always found that feature useful to keep up with extra screws. I do like the extra light. I guess I can’t have it all.......

TTI is definitely going after the cheaper Dewalt tools and from what I've seen they are succeeding with this new line of tools. Great video as usual.

    You know it's a good drill when the reviewer can only nitpick about the aux handle being maybe a bit longer and the trigger grip style, which is about as subjective as there can be, not to his liking. I know most people who tune into these type of channels are gear heads so Ryobi is almost always frowned upon right out of the gate. But lets get real here. For what this drill costs, especially in a package with impact driver, and the performance I saw in this video, I'd say this is a damn fine piece of gear and it would serve any DIYer and homeowner very well. I'm pretty impressed with the recent Ryobi HP stuff. I like where they are going.

    Outstanding video. A couple of points. It seems that the HP tools with the extra prongs seem to work pretty good where as the HP tools without the extra prongs simply don't impress. Second I think at least the brushless tools from Ryobi are good enough to build a house. However, I said a house not houses. I don't believe no matter what they claim their not professional grade tools to used hard day in and day out. Just my opinion YMMV. And last the famed 1911 has the best trigger.

  • @fiercelyfluffy5635

    Ryobi has had at least 2 other drills that have had auxiliary handles. I would assume at least one or two more, such as their brushed hammerdrill with 600+" lbs, but I personally own two that have auxiliary handles, one (old) also had a depth gauge

  • @kvernesdotten
    @kvernesdotten 3 ปีที่แล้ว +18

    I really think Ryobi have come a long way. Some of their tools still have some issues, and some of their tools still are outright bad, but most of their stuff is getting really good, and they show alot of willingness to improve. For instance, their old brushless hammer drill was pretty good, powerfull motor (apart from a bit too aggressive overload protection) but the chuck was really bad and would let go of anything i put in there sooner or later. These new ones seems to have alot better ratcheting chucks.
    Also have this sneaky feeling that much of the quality uplift is from using stuff from older generation Milwaukees. Alot if the build materials seems to be the exact same. If that is true then the trickling down of older, but higher quality tech is awesome for consumers. Sure its not industrial grade, but its miles above the average IKEA drill or whatever someone would buy just for the sake of having a drill. I'm pretty sure that "regular" people collectively buy alot more tools than professionals do, so better technology at better prices affect ALOT of people out there!

  • @taylorshin
    @taylorshin 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Having mechanical chuck seems to be in the right direction. Even Milwaukee went back to mechanical chuck!
    I just received this drill and opened the box. As long as I feel, based on my short experience with DCD800 and DCF887, this Ryobi feels way better made. Solid fit. Yet missing some coushion pads around the foot pad. It does not seem to be any big issue for a lightweight(?) users, though, since they won't be using this drill in any hardcore environment frequently. Also, the battery footpad(?) is large enough.
    The metal chuck and clutch selector feels really nice! Especially the mechanical clutch clicks like 'quality' every time. I have never expected this from Ryobi and beginning to consider switching entire platform from DeWalt to Ryobi HP. Well, I will still keep DCF850 if the shift ever happens though.
    I got this drill with the impact kit just because of the hammer function with the auxiliary handle and the brushless motor. Sure, I could have stayed with DeWalt platform for this purchase. But their high-end 900 series seems to be a bit outdated (no auto-stop, dinosaur size, and pricy) in design and too powerful for amateurs like me who even felt DeWalt 20V drills are too much and preferring 12V as a go-to.
    Sure, this drill is even heavier than DCD800. Yet, the aux handle seems to be negating the problem well. The small notch on the grip feels ok for me. At least I don't have to drill thousands of holes a day with this. So, I am not keen on the grip comfort, though. I tried gripping it inverted, pulling the trigger with pinky but didn't feel too much of obsecure sense. I would rather point out the thicker ankle area which is huge compared to anything DeWalt 12V stuff. Yet, again, I'm not very keen on this matter.
    I have a few caveats though, one is the chager... no, not the charging speed or anything electrical but the outlet plug connector is the notorious brick type... takes up at least 3 of outlet extender slots! Yes, I hate these kind of fat plug in brick connectors! My lawn mower, also Ryobi, charger isn't like this! AVGN tone: What were they thinking!
    Another caveat is not coming with any belt clips nor bit holding slot accessories. I saw some previous generation Ryobi drills came with those, well not exactly but internally, and even magnetic bit holders on the foot! It's kind of annlying having to source them separately. I bet there will be some 3rd party ones, though.
    Lastlly, the drill seems a bit chubby and longer than anything I have (DeWalts, mostly.) So, I will not be using it any odd situation at all. But then again, I still have 12V DeWalts for this.

    I mean, according to a lot of people, _all_ of Ryobi's tools are "DIY" tools. It hasn't stopped them from making me money on nearly every job site over the last fifteen years but there are still those who insist I need to replace them all with "real" tools, anyway. I'll probably pick up this "DIY" hammer drill when mine finally craps out. Then again, there will probably be at least one more version before that happens.

    • @WorkshopAddict
      @WorkshopAddict  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      15 years ago, Ryobi made great tools. Since the blue went away, the quality has went down and down. Since Ryobi sold to Kyocera in 2018 and TTI leases the name, it has sunk even further. So you get people who made money with the older tools and love them and the new people who burn up a new tool in 3 weeks and hate them. It is all about the experience, but with the new tools, it wont take long to change your mind.

      @@WorkshopAddict I can't say that I agree. I didn't say I only own blue Ryobis. I can say with some authority that my newer, HP recip saw is significantly better than the blue recip it replaced (finally crapped out a month ago). All of my green drills are better than my OG blue drill by a _wide_ margin. Yes, even the first green drill (which I still have). Jigsaw vs jigsaw, green wins. Shop vac vs shop vacs, green again. Miter saw vs miter saws, all green, all day.
      Don't get me wrong, my blue tools have served me well for a long time but my green tools are a definite improvement in most cases. The one exception would be the blue 5.5" circular saw vs the green 6.5". The balance sucks on the green and only gets worse when you add a bigger battery. The blue saw is perfectly balanced and with its rear battery mount, doesn't change when you add a bigger battery.

    I love Ryobi snatched up the first brushless drill/ hammer drill. Performance was excellent but the all keyless metal chuck they used was crap. I tried and failed to remove the chuck to install a nice version from an old Dewalt xtr 18V. Could never get the original off without feeling I was break something. Rubber mallet with Allen key inserted and chuck tightened. Brain wants to say reverse threaded removal but don't remember 100% ATM. I did check before trying the several times I didn't before giving up. Might try some focused heat on the fastener with a soldering iron for a while to loosen the epoxy, ehmm, locktite. If not drill and remove with an easy out.

My original core tools were drill/hammer drill, the incredible $69 "tool only" impact driver, and the sawzall. Sawzall trigger safety switch sucked balls so I just jammed a small screw to keep it closed but the tools were great and I abuse the crap out of my tools. Before Ryobi I had every major brand but Makita. Had Dewalt since the first 12V pistol drill, then Porter Cable before they gayed out(getting better recently)and did the good but really expensive Milwaukee thing. Yeah, I got ribbed for my homeowner tools but I was just as productive and could buy just the tool back then.

You were stating it didnt spit out the large bit like others drills have. Is the one click back method correct or some b.s.

      99 percent of people never do the one click back. I have had some engineers tell me the one click back used to be true and is not anymore and some say to do it. I cannot get a straight answer, so I used this like many DIY people would, no click back. It held the bit better than many others. If it would have been an issues I would have done the one click back and worked to prove it.

Europeans distrust plastic much more than Americans, and even lower tier european competiton like Erbauer (similar or even lower price point, their jigsaw is ca. 60$ before taxes) sell their jigsaws with cast aluminum main body (which is much stiffer and helps precision of the cuts, but in the same time more expensive than just a metal plate hold in plastic body). Ryobi decided to compete with just an appearance :)
      Ryobi painted plastic with metallic paint on US market as well, for example brushless angle grinder has half of the body painted despite having proper, cast aluminum gear housing. I do not understand this particular design desicion, because nobody makes aluminum body angle grinders this days and there is nothing to be ashamed of.
      This is why im interested with the new drill: on photos the color matches the color of impact driver gear housing, which is aluminum cast and is heavily advertised as such. But is it true metal, or there is dirty secret below the layer of paint?
