NEW 2022 Ryobi One+ Inverter Charger 18v RYi150CVNM Quick Look

Quick look at the Ryobi One+ Inverter Charger 18v RYi150CVNM.
Thanks to The Home Depot and Ryobi for providing this sample. Home Depot item number is 321921221. The item is not on their website as I post this video.
This is a super handy little inverter. I have plenty of small items that I can power or charge off of this device. There are a couple of opportunities that Ryobi left on the table. The USB ports only provide power when the whole unit is energized. It would be really nice if there were separate power buttons for the DC power and AC power, that way you aren't wasting battery life running an inverter that isn't being used. The light is so so, they could have used that space and effort for the other power button. One interesting thing I noticed is that if you are charging a device off the USB C port, and then shut the power off of the device, the charger function will take over and pull power from the device you were charging right back into the One+ battery.

Thank you. Awesome video

[@FernbarkFrist]

Glad you liked it!

[@tracyphillips3325]

That's pretty darn good. I like Ryobi tools.

[@FernbarkFrist]

Me too. This little guy does a lot of stuff for me while camping.

[@shovelhead8]

Looks pretty good for light use. Thank you for showing it to us, Fernbark. Stay safe and stay cool

[@FernbarkFrist]

If you already have this battery platform, it is a nice item. thanks for watching.

[@pacificbushcraftandfirecra6358]

Pretty cool what direction all these battery supply chargers are going. Pretty soon you'll be able to run your whole house off these during a power outage. Thanks for sharing!

[@YourOldPalFernbark]

They actually already exist. They are pretty spendy, but very nice.

[@FernbarkFrist]

Since I lose power pretty often, I am getting used to running a bunch of things from batteries.

[@harrigro]

Wonder if it would power a dsl router when electricity goes out

[@FernbarkFrist]

@@harrigro How many watts does a dsl router use? If the answer is less than 150, then yes it can.

[@harrigro]

@@FernbarkFrist It states about 20. Thanks

[@jasonbridges45]

Think you could make a cup of coffee with this thing

[@FernbarkFrist]

No.

[@westonweems3932]

I use it for charging my batteries from a 120 watt solar panel with a USB C output. The inverter is back up power to my koi pond pump. It doesn’t work with a fan we have that has a digital remote control. When used to power a standard box fan it works but the. Fan motor hums pretty loudly.

[@FernbarkFrist]

The fan hums loudly because the inverter is a modified sine wave, not pure sine.

[@YourOldPalFernbark]

Have to get me one of those.

[@FernbarkFrist]

Good luck. Not in stores yet.

[@stephonnicholls150]

How soon will it release in stores?

[@ganstabarber23]

Why you have it ?

[@eileenbrodie7686]

November 2022, I just got one from Home Depot Online.

[@sloanNYC]

You can get it without a battery for $99 now and even charge with solar panels that have a USB output. 30w is decent on the USB-C in/out, but I do wish they had gone up to at least 65w meeting needs of smaller laptops. 100w like the DeWalt USB-C would be great, but would move the price up too much I'd guess.

[@walkingconifer]

which one is the DeWalt 100w USB-C?

[@222txgirl]

Ty

[@DoritosResidue]

Wth I just bought the old version a month ago with the two 4 ah batteries combo. I already have a bluetti and an ecoflow but I'm telling yall the portability of this ryobi is unmatched especially with an ac plug. I'm definitely looking to buy this new version. Do you know if this version has pass through charging?

[@FernbarkFrist]

It is surprisingly handy.

[@VisualRituals]

How did you get access to this updated inverter? It's not currently for sale in the USA. Is there an unlisted link on Home Depot's site that allows pass through purchasing?

[@FernbarkFrist]

I was provided this sample for review. It will be available for sale on the website soon.

[@dondiego124]

I was going to ask the same thing. Lol Ryobi is a little weird about how they put products out when they're new. When they first mentioned that they were going to have the 18 volt plus one portable bandsaw I was aimed to get it and it took forever and when I did find it it was just by chance everywhere I called said it didn't have it and one store near me said they had it and when I went in to look I didn't see it and I happened to run into the Ryobi rep and I asked him about it he didn't know anything about it so I continued the rest of my shopping a little bit later he came running down and caught me and he had two of them in his hands he he found them and I was thrilled

[@eileenbrodie7686]

See Home Depot Online, it just showed up there. It’s Nov 10th, 2022, and I just received my Inverter/ CHARGER yesterday, ordered online from Home Depot. I’m finding that an attached 18v fully charged genuine Ryobi battery runs down very fast, going from 4 bars down to 2 in what seems like 5 minutes. It took my iPad Pro from 3% charge to 14% charge in that time. But that seems a little poor? The battery I trialled is a P107 Lithium Ion 28Wh. I’ll be trying my larger batteries next. Meanwhile the Ryobi USB C charge cord giving input to the Ryobi battery (using Inverter in Charger mode) is pretty fast. In around 5 minutes it’s back to 4 bars now.

[@222txgirl]

Can you buy the wall plug alone

[@carent5x]

hi can you make videos with compact sprayer 18v ryobi and 20v hart tools? thanks

[@FernbarkFrist]

It is possible I might make a review of the Ryobi compact sprayer, but unlikely I will do reviews of the Hart products since I am not currently interested in investing in that battery platform.

[@costavong6018]

where you got it??? I have been searching all homedepot

[@FernbarkFrist]

I have an early release model.

[@222txgirl]

I lost my wall plug, do you know if they sell the wall plug all by itself without having to buy the whole kit again?

[@FernbarkFrist]

You would have to go to their website to look up spare parts. If you are referring to the USB C charger plug, you can use any USB C charger. That is what the U in USB stands for.

[@walkingconifer]

Have you done a max power test? I have a onewheel GT charger which might use 200 watt, not sure if this thing can handle

[@FernbarkFrist]

It is probably too small. They have another model that supplies 300 watts that would be better.

[@walkingconifer]

@@FernbarkFrist you mean the one has 800 watt source from car battery right? That's too big for travel. I ordered one and will test it out this weekend.

[@FernbarkFrist]

@@walkingconifer Yes. That is the one.

[@westonweems3932]

There’s a 300 watt inverter that uses a Ryobi 40 volt battery. It does well with a 250 watt heater.

[@shaunbhatty5106]

Is the plug actually ryobi or is that something you made?

[@FernbarkFrist]

It is Ryobi

[@FreedomFinanceFun]

For the same price you get a power station That does so much more. I wish it was cheaper

[@walkingconifer]

which power station?

[@FreedomFinanceFun]

@@walkingconifer literally anyone from anker, bluetti, Amazon knock off

[@walkingconifer]

@@FreedomFinanceFun I got my ryobi battery for less than $0.5/wh. I can bring multiple battery with me when necessary. The price is ok, I only wish it's 300w and 100w usb c pd.

[@choncoconcos5912]

Would it be powerful enough to put a 3 way on it? Thanks in advance

[@FernbarkFrist]

Depends on what you are running.

@@FernbarkFrist thanks

[@conradsmith841]

Have you tried to charge a battery with solar?. Ryobi is coming out with 100 w solar panels to charge batteries. I seen it on another video.

[@FernbarkFrist]

I charge these with solar all the time, just not a Ryobi product.

[@conradsmith841]

@@FernbarkFrist could you make a video showing that? I bet it would be very popular.

[@kirkbrooks2016]

I tried this with the 60L but my inverter keeps cutting out. I thought the fridge was was only 85W

[@FernbarkFrist]

Two things could be a problem, the surge from the fridge could be too large, or the battery you are using is too small. If you want to go to the limits of the inverter, you want 6ah or larger. My recommendation, not what the instructions say.

[@kirkbrooks2016]

@@FernbarkFristI’ll give that a go this week. Fingers crossed, hoping to not need to get the 36v inverter as I already have this one and plenty of 18v batteries

[@johnx9349]

Pretty sure you can just tap the button dont need to hold it down. Also, with what they're doing in the video, pretty sure you're gonna end up with a baby 1AH battery in 9 months 😂

@@johnx9349 I was just using one battery to charger another battery because I didn't have a regular household plug to charge with for the video.

[@eileenbrodie7686]

You do have to long-press the power-on button. For the light, just a tap works but first must turn inverter on. (I have the new one and am testing it now.)

As of Nov 2022, $129 with one battery, or $99 for tool only. Both include the green plug and green USB-c cable. Bought mine at Home Depot Online, not in my store yet nor any one near me.

Will it power a shop vac

[@FernbarkFrist]

Only if your shop vac uses less than 150w at any given time.

[@westonweems3932]

Not likely -the starting current will be way too high.

[@DemPilafian]

The old USB-A ports are hideous. *USB-C has been around since 2014.* It's long past time for manufactures to start shipping new products with USB-C only. I know Ryobi product managers won't even see this comment, but nonetheless: _I refuse to buy a product with any outdated, ugly USB-A ports!_

[@FernbarkFrist]

I still use USB-A ports, so I am glad they are there. I had actually never given any thought to their attractiveness. I remain neutral on that point.

[@DemPilafian]

@@FernbarkFrist That's fine. I'm not saying you shouldn't be allowed to buy USB-A. I'm saying there should be products available for people like me who don't wan't the old, obsolete cruft. *The Apple MacBook lineup has not had USB-A ports in ages.* However, you literally cannot buy a new PC laptop today without one of those nasty archaic USB ports.
