I don't believe I have ever owned a tool marked "outside" and unless you plan on working in a cloud burst, which few people do, I can't see any reason for owning one. When you buy nails and screws and the like sometimes it says outside on the box. -- underground experts united http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573 |

So I think they have the same power and interface, thus works for all, but the "Ah" (Ampere hour) unit seems to suggest the longest use before recharge for the 5.0 Ah version. Yes, that must be it. One has to wonder tho why there are *five* batteries? One light and small and one heavy and big I understand. Yet another one in the middle? Fine. But five? Can there really be a size/weight advantage anyone would ever notice with the 1.3 version compared to the 1.5? The different batter capacities are probably there because various tools require different power levels. A light weight 1/4" drill will obviously require a smaller motor to power it than (for example) a 1/2" hammer drill designed to drill holes in concrete. A 1.5 HR battery that would power a small 1.4" drill for an hour would power the larger drill for perhaps 15 minutes. -- Cheers, John B. |

These batteries from the looks of it does not differ that much in size. Why not just get the bigger one? I see the rationale with a small one for drilling and driving in soft wood (if you are to do that 1000 times and don't won't your forearm to ache) and the big 5.0 Ah for the angle grinder - sure. And one in between for good measure. It's all good. But take a look at the list of available batteries again - all 18V, all Lithium, same charger, same everything (almost). Especially the first three - all with 5s and the Ah in the tight range [1.3, 1.5]. Seems like virtually the same. But I wish they would state the weight in the manual as well. Ah No. of Cell for Battery ------------------------------ 1.3 5 1.4 " 1.5 " 2.0 " 2.4 10 -- 2.5 5 2.6 10 4.0 " 5.0 " -- underground experts united http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573 |

Commercial Pro vs home shop
The batts are all different sizes right ? Do batts fit into handle ? |

The batts (5 in the booklet but in the manual are several more in the table cited) - the batts all fit into the tools of the particular tool chain, which according to the booklet I got with one of them consists of "over 40 tools". Some of them, like a couple for drilling/driving, look pretty similar to me tho. There are also two mowers. Maybe one for when the grass is dry and one when it is wet, just like with secateurs -- underground experts united http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573 |

When mixing tough beer bread dough with the Ryobi drill its (smaller) battery doesn't last much longer than that. A 120V mains-powered kitchen mixer would smoke out, I have ruined several of those until I switched to electric drills. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ |
