I found a couple of new One+ tools from Ryobi that are mentioned on their site and on HD.com. I love that the sander has an included vacuum attachment, though without holes in the paper, I wonder how much dust it can really collect.

There’s also an entry for a new SDS-Plus rotary hammer that appears almost the same as the existing one in specs, but the new one has a side handle and looks just a bit more substantial.

Holy crap I want that sander!!!
Those do look pretty sweet. I just bought the ryobi glue gun and so far it’s a pretty awesome unit.

The sander comes with the hole-punching tool, so you can punch the holes in the paper.
That’s pretty cool I like those lights!
Very cool that inflator ?
Come on 1/4 sheet in ridgid!!! I want those cable lights though!!

That SDS rotary hammer drill looks almost exactly like the original one. I had that and it was great, but I sold it when the new one came out because the original one (like this one) did not have a hammer only mode.
I can see some demand for some of these tools, but nothing I’m too excited for. Call me back when they release a cordless shop vac or framing nailer. I am still waiting for official confirmation on the 3.0, 6.0 and 9.0 A/hr battery packs that are supposed to be coming out.
Just got an email about the release of a fluid transfer pump and drain snake. Fluid pump is a hybrid cordless/corded unit.

Cool, was the existing one only battery? Also is this an update to their 18v drain snake or a new design?

Ok yep, that pump was floating around here and there.
In other news regarding ryobi:

So who wants to be the guinea pig on this at $2500. All the Home Despots near me are showing stock on it…

As far as I can tell, the auger is the same one that came out last year that I’ve got sitting in a bucket in my garage. The pump was always dual power. I think the marketing email was just that – marketing to say “hey, we’re making cool stuff for plumbers”

Yep, thought so

I think my HD has them in stock…
You ever see a tool and instantly the voices in your head were coming up with convincing stories to tell the wife as to why you “need” that tool? Happened when I saw the sander, and now it’s kinda happening with those lights too. Those things look very handy.
And crap, now that I went to the site and looked at the inflator…”it can also be used as a portable benchtop blower to keep your work surfaces clean”…makes me want the inflator too. Damn you Ryobi!!! Ryobi just needs to stop screwing around and start sending me tools.

It looks like the sander comes with an adapter for a round dust collection hose. No idea the diameter, but there are plenty of converters from rockler, etc. that can connect with just about everything.

I wish someone would standardize D.C. Fittings it drives me crazy swapping sanders and hose fittings

$2500 isn’t bad for a riding mower a bit of a premium over budget gas models though.

Minor DIY, tap cons in a basement, but on another note I know quite a few guys that use Ryobi, especially guys that have had their trucks broken into, no one wants lime green tools! ha ha
Also for chiseling too, if they have that function on the tool
Even more …love my Ryobi stuff….now I gotta get those ..lights..inflater..sander…hopefully a cordless compressor…and those bigger batteries…..gonna wait to jump into rigid….

To drill holes into concrete? In all seriousness, that seems like a tool you would only use sparingly as a home owner.
Also, the router looks awesome, especially for that price.

Drilling holes into brick and concrete walls to hang stuff is something that happens more often than you’d think for those that live in masonry houses. Not so much in the south and MW where everything is made of wood, but the NE has a lot of houses that fit this bill.

They’ve updated the product page to say that the adapter isn’t included now 🙁
On a separate note – how’d you get your hands on one? HD.com doesn’t even list the P440 and Ryobi still says “coming soon.”

I was in The DC area and stopped at a random Home Depot on the way home. It was the only one on the shelf. It works well. I would recommend it if you are invested in the platform.

Went to a few HD’s in to Detroit burbs and the sheet sanders where in stock, one had the router (should have snagged that).

Just a heads up, that router does not have speed control. This was a deal breaker for me. It also does not come with an edge guide like the ridgid.

Has anyone done the math on how large diameter bit you can use? I assume that you can’t use a big rail and stile set, but you wouldn’t do that with a trim router anyway. What sort of use would you use a trim router for that would require a larger bit or a slower speed?

I use 1/4 spiral bits, and the faster you spin them the less time they last. Lower speeds also give you a lot more control the over the router.
Full-Size Brushless 7/4″ Circular Saw spotted at Bunnings (Australia) today! Have a look at this! $279 (AUD) skin only is rather steep for Ryobi I reckon, the DHS680 is $296 skin only and the FlexVolt is $349. $199 for 2×5.0ah batteries and $100 for a charger you’re getting close to $600 for a ryobi tool, I’ve seen the FlexVolt on special at that price here!

I can’t wait for this to come to America, when I does I am selling my 6 1/2″ one right away.
For Some reason whenever companies bring there circular saws to the US they always take away dust collection port. I would be willing to pay the (I assume) $150-200 dollars this will cost when or if it comes over if they keep the dust collection port.
Is Ryobi better then cobalt ?

Do you mean Kobalt? If so it depends on what you mean by better. If you are talking about the 24v Kobalt line then there are pros and cons to either. The Kobolt wins mostly in power. Where it loses is in price, variety of tools and the fact that Ryobi is an established brand whereas Kobolt (the 24v line) is relatively new. From what I’ve seen, people tend to compare Kobalt to Ridgid (where Kobolt often loses).

Kobalt changes battery stakes every few years at one point you could buy a 18v a 20v and a 24v all in one shopping trip, I think the 18s finally disappeared but the 20s still linger
