These stout implements are also handy for turning nuts or bolts that are manufactured from more delicate materials like aluminum. Motorcycles and bicycles often have parts made of softer alloys. Because the torque used on such metals isn’t as heavy, the chance of stripping threads is less likely than with a traditional wrench.

Of course stubby wrenches are useful for more than car repair and maintenance. They come in handy around the house and garden, too. They make replacing stair balusters easier because of improved turning ration. Replacing the blades on the lawnmower is a simpler task. Plumbing repairs go more smoothly, too, when the long handles of standard tools aren’t getting in the way. And implements with shorter handles take up less room in the tool box or utility cabinet. Finally furniture building and repair becomes less frustrating when the tool fits the job…and the user’s hand.

Granted, the router table is limited to the types of bits present in the shop. Fortunately, hundreds, if not thousands, of different router bits are available made from an assortment of metals. The type of metal used and the size of the bit usually dictate the price. However, one bit can produce several different results by raising or lowering the table or the router itself. A Craftsman router table is equipped with an aluminum tabletop that allows the wood to pass through the cutting head with little resistance. This feature also allows for easy adjustment of the fence to keep cuts clean and consistent. In addition, the bench top models provide means of keeping the entire unit in place with boltholes in the legs. Free standing or full tables feature heavy-duty casters and locking wheels for easily moving the entire assembly around the shop.

Any Ryobi 18 v cordless drill or any Ryobi cordless tool in general that is, will accept either the old ni cad batteries or the new and much improved lith ion batteries.  The p203 can be found by itself or as part of a kit.  There is both a 2 piece kit that comes with the drill and flashlight as well as a 4 piece kit that comes with the drill, circular saw, recipricating saw and worklight.  Both kits come with charger and battery, beware though, the Ryobi P203 on its own does not always come with a battery.  So pay special attention to the package if you know you will need one.  If you have some exsisting Ryobi tools then do not worry as I mentioned earlier the old ni-cads will work fine if that is what you are used to.  Whether you are looking for just a great drill or an addition to your existing blue Ryobi tools, the Ryobi P203 is the perfect tool for you.

• Drill
• Circular Saw with blade
• Recipricating Saw with blade
• Worklight
• Charger
• 2 Lithium Ion Batteries

If you are new to the cordless tool arena, Ryobi is a great place to start. They offer excellent quality with excellent pricing. No where else can you find that combination. All of the essential cordless power tools are present in Ryobi's 'starter kit' if you will. With Ryobi cordless tools you can rest assured that if you need to buy an add-on tool, they will have you covered. Ryobi has one of the most extensive cordless tool selections around. The new lithium ion batteries that come with the p843 are fully compatible with all of their 18 volt one+ tools. Ryobi's redesigned lithium tools are only a few right now, but it is only a matter of time before them entire Ryobi cordless tool arsenal is revamped and given the green facelift of the new tools. For now it should be comforting to know that they had the foresight to make the new batteries compatible with the old tools. Whether you are looking for a starter set or just a compliment to your existing Ryobi 18 volt collection, the Ryobi P843 is the right choice.

If you don't have a cordless impact wrench in your cordless arsenal yet, now is a great time to add one. Cordless drills are great, don't get me wrong. But to be completely honest, you have not really driven a 3 inch deck screw or driven a 5 inch lag bolt or anything else until you have done it with an impact driver. Tightening a bolt? You were going to grab the ratchet weren't you. No way, go for the cordless impact driver. The new drivers are small enough to get into fairly compact places and the new Lithium Ion batteries make them much lighter than previous generations. Whatever the case may be, the Ryobi P232 is the tool for you.

Let me better explain the “all Ryobi tools” remark. Until recently if you saw a blue cordless tool, your first reaction would be “that’s it is a Ryobi tool“. Well, that is now their old model cordless tool. Don’t be so quick to say “My Ryobi tools are old? I just bought them”. Good news for “old model” users, you can take advantage of the new Lithium Ion batteries the same as the new models. Both NiCad and Lithium Ion batteries fit in both the new and old Ryobi tool models.

The “new” model Ryobi tools are a bright green color. Don’t ask me why they did this, Hitachi tools are already known for the green color. Color trade marking aside, the new tools do offer advantages over the old. The new Ryobi 18v Lithium Ion tools are optimized for weight and balance. Although the new Lith Ion batteries are what make this optimization possible you can still plug the old Ni-Cad battery in if you are in a bind.

So a good question might be, “What tools are available from Ryobi tools”. Here is the short list.

Green Ryobi tools (new)

• 18 Volt Lithium Ion Battery
• 18 Volt Charger (Charges both Ni Cad and Lith Ion)
• 18 Volt Drill
• 18 Volt Circular Saw
• 18 Volt Reciprocating Saw
• 18 Volt Worklight

Blue Ryobi Tools (old, sort of)

• 18 Volt Ni Cad Battery
• 18 Volt Charger (only charges Ni Cad)
• 18 Volt Drill
• 18 Volt Hammer Drill
• 18 Volt Right Angle Drill
• 18 Volt Impact Driver
• 18 Volt Circular Saw
• 18 Volt Reciprocating Saw
• 18 Volt Angle Grinder
• 18 Volt Worklight
• 18 Volt Jig Saw
• 18 Volt Hand Planer
• 18 Volt Rotary Cutter (zip saw)
• 18 Volt Laminate trimmer
• 18 Volt Random Orbital Sander
• 18 Volt “Corner Cat” Finish Sander
• 18 Volt Stapler
• 18 Volt Wet/Dry Canister Vac
• 18 Volt Portable Fan
• 18 Volt Dual Function Inflator
• 18 Volt Caulk and Adhesive Gun
• 18 Volt Wet/Dry Hand Vac
• 18 Volt High Intensity Spot Light
• 18 Volt Blower
• 18 Volt Chain Saw
• 18 Volt Pole Pruner
• 18 Volt Home and Garden Sprayer
• 18 Volt Hedge Trimmer
• 18 Volt String Trimmer
• 18 Volt Car Buffer

I guess that was actually the long list. As you can see from the not so short list above, the New Lithium Ion Ryobi Tools or Green Ryobi, has a way to go. Like I said earlier, the good news is that you can purchase a Ryobi Lithium Ion upgrade kit now. This will allow you to start utilizing the benefits of Lithium Ion tool battery Immediately. As time goes by I certain that Ryobi tools will be redesigning their entire range of old “blue” tools and optimizing them for weight and balance transforming them into cool new “green” tools.

Old or New, Blue or Green, Ryobi 18 volt Cordless Tools is where you want to be for the best price and features.

I know this does not seem like a helpful article thus far. I have just told everyone how to do what they already know. What you don’t know is this is not the best practice for charging your batteries. (Unless you are using the new Lithium Ion power tools) There are 2 things wrong with that step by step guide, can you spot them?

The standard battery for cordless tools (until recently) has been the Nickel Cadmium or NiCad battery. Cordless tool Ni Cad technology has been evolving since its inception, but it still suffers from a few side effects that can be easily negated if you know more about how the battery works.

NiCad battery side effect number one, memory. When you place a Nickel Cadmium tool battery on the charger before the battery has completely discharged, you are creating battery memory. What exactly does this mean. The battery just remembered the point at which it was discharged and thinks that this point is the point of full battery discharge. The battery will remember how much it had to charge from this point to get back to a full charge.

This will not happen over night. It will not happen the first time you place a half discharged cordless tool battery on the charger. If you are an avid weekend warrior or even if you only use your tools once a month. The odds are that you are used to placing your tool batteries back on the charger so that they have a full charge the next time you need them. This is your bane, the time and time again half charges will eventually lead to your batteries only holding a half charge at max charge.

So what should you do. That is actually an easy answer. Buy more batteries for your cordless tools. Always wait until your Ni-Cad battery fully discharges and then replace it with your spare and fully charged tool battery. You are ready to go, and you will never run into battery memory again.

NiCad battery side effect number two, overcharge damage. Simply put, if you keep your cordless power tool batteries on a standard charger until the next time you need it, you will shorten the total life of the battery. I say a standard charger because this is the normal single battery charger that comes with cordless tools. Most of the chargers that come with say cordless drill, are single cycle full power chargers. These chargers are meant for fast charging and removal when the tool battery is full. So what happens when you leave the battery on the cordless tool charger until the next time you need to use it. You will have been sending full charging power to the battery for too long and be over charging. You will notice that the battery will be very hot when you take it off the charger, this is bad and this will shorten the life of your battery.

What is the solution. Simple again, buy a two stage battery charger. Stage one, charge the battery at full power until it is full. Stage two, detect when the battery is full and adjust power to a trickle just enough to keep the battery at full charge for an extended time. With a dual stage battery charger, you can leave the battery on the charger for as long as you like with no damage. What’s more is you will not have a hot battery to put back into your cordless tool, that is good.

With a few simple changes or should I say with a few simple purchases, you can insure a long life for all of your NiCad cordless tool batteries.
