Neither a recommendation for, or comments against, Ryobi tools.

If you got them, you know what they are worth and build quality. If you
don't have any, the new yellow One+ series are decent and have Li-Ion
batteries that fit the older blue one Ryobi cordless stuff.

Batteries are robust and with the Li-Ion chemistry provide decent service.

Just passing along that Home Depot has one of their special going
through the first week or so of June (they do this once or twice a year)

Deal: Two, 3.0Ah batteries with power level indicator, a charger, and
carry all case that will hold the aforementioned plus a couple of the
cordless tools. You get this AND choice of one free bare tool for $99

Pretty decent selection of bare tools as well. I really like their
reciprocal saw for use in the yard for trimming off dead limbs, scrub
brush, etc.


Here's a tip back at ya. I have a reciprocal saw and had bought a set
of Milwaukee blades that came with a special blade for trimming tree
branches. Wow, does that sucker cut. I didn't know that was in the set
when I bought it, but it cuts limbs like butter and I highly recommend it.



I haven't used it - but also heard good reports :

And way tooooooooo expensive.

You really don't need more than a regular demo blade to trim bushes but
the blade made to do this is better.
This one does not sting so much.
