Green is what you associate with faggy eco shit, it doesn't belong on power tools, makes them look cheap.Now orange and grey I can get behind, looks industrial and tough.

Flashlights break. Batteries overheat easily. Circular saw has almost no useful power. Air nailer has safety to disable shot after 3 seconds. Router shuts off from normal resistance to bit. Drills are fine and get the job done. They work

I finally stepped into the battery tool game with one of the $199 Ryobi kits Home Depot had for black Friday. I really can't complain. For hobbyist shit they're great, the impact driver has helped already with a couple fixes on vehicles, the drill seems perfectly adequate, and the tiny ass circular saw was more comfortable that my big corded one for cutting 3/4" cedar. Haven't really had a use for the oscillating tool or reciprocating saw yet, and I've got a ton of flashlights already, but they seem solid enough.

pay a little extra for eGo products. longer battery life is worth it.

I find the color to be ugly as fuck, although I do think they're decent tools to have around the house.

I buy prosumer grade because I want my tool to work without paying a fortune for them.DIY grade tools are for people who bought a house and might make a bird feeder one day.

perfectly ok tools. I've built a few decks and stuff with ryobi. I prefer my makita tools, but ryobi is fine

They have a good lineup of tools that are all pretty decent. Im able to swap the battery from my jigsaw I use once a year to my vacuum cleaner or portable air compressor.

Slightly off-topic, has anyone tried any of those cheap knock-off tools for specified batteries? Thinking about one of those off-brand small reciprocating caws for my dewalt 20v. I don't need to use such a saw often enough to warrant the price.

Should I buy kobalt, DeWalt, Milwaukee, or Makita? Just gonna get one of those $250 2pc kits with a drill and a driver

I have about 20 Ryobi tools and about 4 batteries, some which came with them (trash) others I had to buy (good). I do my own home renovation and maintenance including building a separate living space and they have never let me down yet. But my father (ex builder) gave me one of his old Makita belt sanders to use and I was quite jealous of the quality. Ryobi is fine for my needs.

Green's fine, if you only need them for occasional DIY stuff. I mainly use Yellow. Not always the best in a category, but usually near the top and will always get the job done.

They're brand of Techtronic Industries (TTI).I'm thinking about trying an electric ratchet and not willing to commit to the other TTI brand - Ryobi's 12V 3/8" ratchet looks nice and compact, but it's a bit more expensive than the Walmart Hyper Tough one. For DIY not heavy professional use. Thoughts?
