I use the Milwaukee Fuel angle grinder frequently at work with an 8Ah and 12Ah high output batteries. This Ryobi honestly put in pretty good performance. I can tell how much you are stressing the tool with the pressure and speed of the cuts and grinding and can't say my Milwaukee does much better in similar situations. I just picked up the Ryobi you used for use at home and for non professional (maybe even light pro) work I think the Ryobi is more than adequate. Home Depot right now has this grinder with a 4Ah high output battery for $119.
Ryobi is definitely stepping up it's game , certain Ryobi tools are pretty darn good.
Yes they are! Thanks for watching.
Thank you! Just the video that I needed to see.
I have had mine now for a week and I really like the balance and feel of this grinder. Thanks for the review.
Good review. Also good job on keeping the expectations with-in reality and also having an honest review. Seems like a decent product.
Thanks for noticing. We strive to tell the truth, regardless. Thanks for watching.
I have the corded Ryobi grinder and bought the previous brushless One+ grinder (refurb from Direct Tools - $59!)
The cordless is less powerful but great for those remote or quick jobs where you don't want to get the cords out. I like the paddle switch though on this new one over the unergonomic slide switch, especially when the overload protection cuts in. Other reviewers complain about the overly sensitive protection, but I've had no issues by letting the tool do the work and not forcing it.
Thanks for the video!
Thanks for the input. I agree, the cut-out is not that big of a deal. You kinda learn how much pressure you can apply. If you need more powerful grinder, then step up and pay for a more powerful grinder. Agreed, I like the paddle switch as well. Thanks for watching.
Great review! When the battery issue occurred, I’m glad you didn’t just call it junk like some other channels and actually figured out what was going on. Nice job 👍
Thanks for noticing. We always want to be honest, good or bad. Also, this battery that had the issue is also more than a year old and it's been used a lot. It took a while, but once it charged, it is fine now. Thanks for watching.
Good review Tim, I'm glad you pushed it. The 6Ah battery does have a thermal cut-out. You didn't mention it, but I was glad to see that this is actually an HP tool with the extra contacts. The plastic add-on guard is a joke and I wish the grinder had a drop sensor! You young fellows don't need a light, but us older guys sure do appreciate one. Still seems like a nice unit though.
Thanks for the input. This is definitely a nice grinder for the price, and the power is impressive. Thanks for watching.
Thank you! Very useful. I just bought this tool and the instructions I can’t figure out how to put it together!
I also am a fan of the pattle switch feature. I find it keeps the operator "plugged-into" what he's doing. Ryobi batteries do have a temperature cut-out as well as the tools have a temperature cut-out which I think you already knew.
Cutting through 7"×2"×1/4"(or 8×3, I couldn't tell.) C-Channel isn't an easy task, especially for a cordless grinder?!!!
I would definitely recommend nothing smaller than the 6Ah HP battery for this tool.
Great video as always, you picked the perfect test, and really tested the tool and the battery you selected. Thanks again for informative entertaining video.
I just bought it today for my welding program and I just saw what you said about using it for welding, damn.
Good video review. I appreciate you going through the assembly, because the included instructions with the tool are terrible! You showed me how to put it together and the various configurations - really appreciate that!
It's a pretty decent grinder I bought one two weeks ago. Realistically I don't use it often since it's only for Last Resort use cases and so far it's worked great.
Another great video. The angle grinder is the one tool that I am sticking with a traditional cord.
Thanks for the post
Awesome little grinder! Prefect for us field mechanics. Great review like always
It sure is! Thanks for watching.
As a welder when you're in a different areas and you need a grinder this really does come in hand it gets the job done and the paddle shift makes it easier.
Cuz there are size I couldn't use my corded ankle graders cuz I didn't have enough sensor cord and I was in a tight space or areas as a welder
I use tools heavily and wherever I have electric I use corded power tools (for the heavy electric consuming tools). For the situations that you don't have an electric hookup Ryobi is the best bang for the buck in my opinion. I use a corded grinder that was cheap and is probably better than 20 years old and it's a better grinder than the new battery stuff. To be fair I don't get people that use cordless, heavy electric consuming tools when they have a power source. I did buy this grinder for a no power situation and it's great for that.
Not everyone can afford two of the same tool. I like the battery tools because running 100' power cord to my shed workshop isn't convenient. In my area, running electricity to accessory buildings is against code, and therefore not covered by insurance.
Me too my friend. It's better "things"in the emergencies.
This was a good ,great tutorial 👌
Thank you very much.
Thanks for the vid
Great video
Thanks for the great review. They're running a sale right now where you can get a free tool when you purchase the 2pc 4ah battery set. I choose this tool. For the light duty work I'll be doing, it should work out great.
I like ryobi Bc their not over priced in my opinion and their really stepping their game up
That's a great point. Thanks for watching.
@@Shoptoolreviews anytime I’ve looked at Milwaukee and and Dewalt Makita and I feel that mainly Milwaukee is over priced which I understand that Milwaukee is obviously going to be better than ryobi but when you compare the price to Milwaukee there’s a huge difference in a lot of tools
These tools are good for light to medium tasks, they are really not meant for heavy demanding power draining jobs, thats when corded tools shine ! they are great for the minimal less demanding job around the house or on job, thats it....
Nice review. Will this tool accept a Type 29 flap disc?
Good morning ... greetings from Chicago.
I have the previous model.
My first one and I think is good since it does what is supposed to do.
What I dislike is the tool to change the disc keep falling from the handle. Other than that I am happy with it.
Happy New Year!!!
Thanks a lot. We understand your frustration on losing the spanner wrench. However, if you remove the battery, press the spindle lock, then just grab the wheel (disc) with your hand and loosen. Do the same to tighten. This is how the majority of Pros remove the wheels on their grinders. No tools needed. ;). Thanks for watching.
@@Shoptoolreviews awesome!!! Thanks
As well I got the 6 hour high performance battery for that because it is high demand I never really thought about that until you said that so I'm gonna definitely used my 6 hour high performance I've got all high performance batteries though save a couple or regular but they're all brand new but 90% are high performance I recommend that as well
What disc do you recommend please? Uk bod,,,but liked your review.....buying in the uk of course....
What's the difference between this and the angle die grinder (SPBDG01)
I use grinders daily (pipefitter/welder) and I HATE paddles. I like the push buttons that are on the side like the makita. I use Metabo 6" corded at work though. I had a dewalt flex volt and it wasn't bad for little stuff. Love my makita for home projects though this looks OK for diy.
I know there are a lot of users who like the slide-lock switches, but I'd really rather have a paddle. Metabo makes some great grinders...probably the best in many areas. Makita has some nice grinders as well. I feel like the DeWalt DCG418 FlexVolt is probably the best cordless grinder available, but others probably disagree. This Ryobi is impressive for the price. Thanks for watching.
Agree, the other brushless model that came out before this one has a switch like a makita or non paddle
Can't get to release disc compartment on mine, is it faulty
Nice job on the review! Personally do not like Ryobi. But Ryobi is strating to look a lot like Milwaukee which is of course not surprising given the common owner.
You are correct, Ryobi is moving up the charts, for sure. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Does this shut off? If you use it too much? I have r18ag7. And it shuts off and need a cool down to use it again. I hate it!.
metal shops do use them, just they dont depend on them for all day work. You have an install or some thing quick or remote you will use them a lot.
I definitely think ryobi has come a long way with the new hp tools I hope they venture off into other tools like milwaukee because they do make good stuff for diy people I would like to see some mechanic tools from them but on another note where did you get that clamp at
Couldn’t agree with you more!!! With the newer technology out some of the less desirable tool makers( nothing against Ryobi” I love ‘em myself!) are getting better, more reliable, and affordable for you average person in the market for tools men/women!
yes but for some reason they made the hp grinder less powerful than the old grinder from the brushless line.
Looks like it cuts better than the first brushless 125 mm model ,that was junk ,the overload cut out pissed a lot of people off .Btw I have the brushed 115 mm model and it's great, doesn't cut out and the trigger switch is my favorite.
Thanks for watching.
My super old blue AG402 grinder crapped out, possibly just need a new switch. I need this new grinder.
This grinder is a very improved grinder and it's worth a look. You should be able to see them by February. Thanks for watching.
Great price, but I think you guys should do drop/endurance/durability tests. There's more to power tools than just performance.
When the manufacturer brags about how far their tools can be dropped, then we'll do some testing. It's a little tough when we have just one tool to test with. Great point. Thanks for watching.
@@Shoptoolreviews
No power tool manufacturer brags about drop height, but they do brag about durability, and one of many ways to test real world durability is a drop test, at say 4', multiple times, as it's something that's likely to be encountered over the life of the tool.
Just sayin.
Obviously, such tests and comparisons would need to be done after the performance testing.
We hear you, and it makes sense.
Awesome tool. I found one on the bottom of my carts after I checked out
$119 for the entire kit until Monday at Home Depot. I would be really tempted if I didn't already do my memorial day shopping.
That's a great deal. Thanks for watching.
Great!!!
DeWalt's (I know Stanley owns them) Craftsman mid tier line must be pulling a lot of customers away from the Milwaukee's budget line of Ryobi. These new Ryobi are definitely mid tier tools.
A lot of dewalt and some Milwaukee stuff is only $20-30 more. I think that’s the problem.
@@henryk1031 but the tool price isn't the problem its the battery price a ryobi 6 ah battery is 139 a milwaukee 8ah battery yes 2 more amps is 199
Ryobi is definitely stepping it up with the new HP line, but the price is creeping up too. Thanks for watching.
@@minnesotaman3 tool price is absolutely a problem along with batteries. Dewalt has 2 packs of 6.0s for like $130 a lot.
Ryobi isn’t a “budget line from Milwaukee”, it’s a brand of tools made by t.t.i, the parent company of both Milwaukee and Ryobi, Ridgid as well.
I'm still using the Cag180 first gen green with the rotating battery...I love that feature and can't stand the way the new ones all have the battery facing down and in the way...
A rotating battery makes total sense, but it does increase cost and adds multiple points of failure. I'm not stating this is why they didn't add this feature, but I'm assuming. This grinder is pretty impressive for the price. Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@Shoptoolreviews I was really hoping to see the rotating handle as well. I have an old corded Ryobi angle grinder with a rotating handle have had zero reliability issues with the handle. It's an awesome feature, similar to when you moved the side handle from the side of the grinder to the top. At least the used a paddle switch this time, I hate slide switches on grinders.
@@Shoptoolreviews There are no additional contacts or failure points, it just rotates 270 degrees and twists/flexes some silicone wires on the inside. This was literally the cheapest grinder at that time, so I doubt the cost addition was high. Mine is 10 years old and has been great.
Even if they didn't utilise that feature on the new grinder, why did they orient the battery down and not turn it 90 degrees?
My brushless doesn’t work anywhere as good as this demo. It doesn’t cut through a 4 mm screw without cutting out 4 times, it must be faulty.
Can you remove the other black piece?
200 cuts in 3/8 rebar was with a 9ah battery which was stated in the product announcement video
I thought that we'd heard it somewhere before. Thanks for the feedback.
Is this noticeably lighter then the non brushless angle grinder P421?
That is correct, it is lighter than the brushed version. Better performing too. Thanks for watching.
I would buy if it had both options like the ryobi fan
I don't know of any grinders that have dual power input. Thanks for watching.
How. Is one like you have there
Cordless grinders are for moving around to do small jobs, not for cutting thick metal. Or even thin metal. The batteries die quickly. No cordless tools are as good as corded. Hilti comes close.
Nice review going to get one but been able to stop a grinder with the the pressure you put in wouldn’t stop me buying it I can stop any grinder if I want and that’s ari or 110v 32amp up to 9” let the tool do the work don’t be a tool
I had a lot of old pipes and rebar to cut up and from what I read th-cam.com/users/postUgkxPDBfLu68o58Aw85O_J-zIFfjJARBhp-3 this would be the tool for the job. Since I had never used one, I watched a couple of youtube videos and I'm so glad I did. Some really good safety tips, which I followed, and this tool did a splendid job. One good thing to know is the weight of the tool puts just about the right amount of pressure on the metal I was cutting, so I didn't have to use a lot of pressure, which is more likely to jam the tool. It made fast work of my job.
Someone should or you should put that up against the previous brushless angle grinder.....I mean the head looks the same.
This one has quite a bit more power. Thanks for watching.
@@Shoptoolreviews is it worth the upgrade though.
I hear Ryobi is used as a test bed for new ideas before TTI move them to their flagship products. I wonder how long it will be before we see the tool less disk change on Milwaukee grinders
Milwaukee grinders already has that
That's not entirely true. Many features go straight to Milwaukee that never make it on a Ryobi tool. Milwaukee does much of the testing on their own tools as well. Thanks for watching.
@@garretr4488 maybe because they are made in the same plant
Looks crazy short for a normal angle grinder, I'd be concerned with it walking especially if you need to change your grip and using a stone wheel.
We didn't notice any issues when using it. Thanks for watching.
Home depot $44.97
My guard is steel, or much better then the plastic on this model
I can't get it off 3:00
Thanks for watching.
You're missing a screwdriver
More money and they remove the tool holder in the handle. Stupid move.
show the courtesy of using a metric system ... Nobody uses this system anymore except the usa.
Our brains just don't work fast enough to interpret this metric/fractional conversion. Sorry for the inconvenience. Thanks for watching.
Fast forwarding the tool in action isn't helpful. Show more of the tool eating at speed with audio. A tool like this will be used for doing work in field such as junk yard and or for a tech in a shop to cut off a bolt or two here and there as opposed to grabbing the pnumatic cutoff tool.
Noted. Thanks for watching.
I'll never buy a grinder with a slide switch on the top unless it stays in the stand, I like my tools not running across the garage if I drop them while using them somehow.
Workshop Addict rips these Ryobi new tools a new asshole.
Paddle switch, protections and doesn't need tools?!! 119bucks for this?!! Wow....
Not a bad deal. Thanks for watching.
Second... and what are yall doing posting so early.
Why not? People want to know about the tools. Thanks for watching.
You really should remove the battery before changing your cutting wheels. Very unsafe to do it with the battery in. 🤦♀️
😂
Who here uses that silly extra guard? They started this safely rubbish with piller drills, the guard is bloody dangerous because you can't see what you're doing. Not seen one fitted in industry, tossed my grinder guard for cutting straight away, just the normal one for me. Like your man isn't using it either.
Zero gard on all my grinder hate these thing fucking useless
Just use common sense and no problem still got my 10 finger after 20 year lol
I wouldn't risk no guard.
@@michaelbamber4887 even the handle is in the tool box 90 % of the time
Now everything have guard even press drill and it fucking shit you can't see shit
Every tool manufacturer's legal department is shaking in their boots from your comment. lol. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Thumbs down because you talked for 10 min of that 15 min video.... And because Ryobi didn't send me any tools to test hahahahaha
I'm sorry, I try to at least show the tool while I'm talking. I can't win them all, I guess. Thanks for watching.
TIM from Canada I want to know why your Ryobi brand is not got into tough cases everyone else has them Milwaukee Dewalt I think rigid A lot of people have them you seem to be wanting to get into the pro market tool but Ryobi is not that good of a tool to be going into this market... The only good thing about the Ryobi two is all batteries fit all tools..
Not like Milwaukee wear one tool has a couple batteries that are different same thing with the Walt same thing with Dewalt and rigid these companies have different batteries that are totally different from the tools
I'm not sure why Ryobi is not available in hard cases yet. Thanks for watching.
Does not matter what RYOBI Does. It will never be a PRO TOOL It might think it is but it is at the bottom of the tool line. You have Black & Decker, that is shit and then RYOBI now Canadian tire come out with their own brand are you have three brands of tools that are shit that are sitting at the bottom of the TOOL LADER … can any order ROOBI Black & Decker CANADIAN TIRE
First
do a vac comparision, and not waste time on "first" comment :P
@@1ssac1 you cant tell him what to do....
Congrats!! Thanks for commenting.
Blimey, why you shouting, bro? 🤔
It's just so much fun. Thanks for watching.
I hated the video and I'm leaving a thumbs down!
Nah I'm kidding. I own the same grinder (model - PBLAG01) and it's a beast. It's a typical 4½" battery grinder, sucks up those batteries like shot glasses, but mighty powerful. Especially for a Ryobi, this one has some ass behind it and gets the job done (long as you have the sacrificial 18v). They're really closing the distance between them and the upper level of power tools like Milwaukee's offerings.
