Speaking of the Ryobi cordless power tool
chain, I see there are no less then five
different batteries! All are 18V Lithium but
the Ah's are 1.3, 1.5, 2.5, 4.0 and 5.0.
What does that mean? Do you get more power for
a single drill or cut or whatever or can you
just do the same thing more times
before recharge?

I was a contractor and used Ryobi for many years, they are a good tool
and priced right. You can buy two Ryobi for the price of one the others
and they for the most part would last just as long. Now with the
batteries, get the largest amp size battery available! The smaller
batteries are not good for contractor work they run down too fast and
they don't hold up to real work, they may be good for simple light work.
Only use the charger for the battery type as the other will ruin the
battery. As far as where to use the tools, you can use them outside just
remember none of these or other contractor tools are water proof either.
I've used mine in the rain but working in the rain is not too smart or
ideal and can be dangerous. Good luck on your project!
