RYOBI 18V Hybrid Cooler Fridge Freezer [12V 18V 120V]

Coming soon to a Home Depot near you is the new RYOBI 18V Hybrid Cooler. This is much more than cooler since it goes as low as 4°F and runs on a single 18V battery, dual 18V batteries, 12V aux, or 120V plug-in power. You can set the temperature from -4°F to 68°F and this RYOBI cooler will accept any 18V One+ battery from 1.5AH up to 12Ah. #ryobitools #homedepot #cooler
RYOBI 18V Hybrid Cooler: homedepot.sjv.io/m5XjvX
Runtime:
(2) 4Ah 18V batteries: 6 hours 10 minutes (cooler set at 34F with the cooler already at 34F and ten 12oz cans of soda already at 34F)
(1) 12Ah and (1) 8Ah 18V Battery: 25 hours 15 minutes (cooler set at 34F with the cooler already at 34F and ten 12oz cans of soda already at 34F)

Not charging the batteries when plugged in, is a huge miss. Priced way too high.

[@Zeaiclies]

Yeah for $5 big bills it really should charge those batteries. 👍😎🍻

[@yesnomaybeso5755]

Tbh the batteries would probably lose longevity faster if it was constantly charging like that. They probably didn’t include the batteries charging to save our batteries from accelerated degradation.

[@Zeaiclies]

@@yesnomaybeso5755 They would not have to constantly charge, but a circuit that puts them into charge mode by plugging in the 120v AC would have been easy.

[@jimyeats]

For everyone lambasting the price; you’re looking at this wrong. This is a true compressor fridge/freezer that runs on AC and 12v. It also just happens to use Ryobi 18v batteries when in between power. Similar sized fridges from normal brands like Dometic are about $500-900 bucks. I own one. It’s amazing having a cold fridge in my truck all the time (solar and auxiliary battery setup). This isn’t some thermoelectric cooler you buy for $199 bucks and it sort of keeps things cool. It’s an actual compact compressor refrigerator/freezer. Those are expensive. Edit: I do agree that not charging the batteries while on AC power is a miss. Also, yes, portable fridges have relatively small compartments, you have to realize though that when you don’t have a jumble of ice to deal with, it’s actually way more roomier than you thought.

[@MikesManCave]

Was reading the comments and this is the first one that gets it. It's a fridge that can run off your vehicle off mains power and you can also use batteries that you likely already have to power it when away from any power source. If you do not already have batteries then this is probably the wrong fridge for you.

[@CaseySexton]

Anyone else kind of shocked at that price? I was expecting about $300.

[@sklise1]

was thinking the same. Would have liked to see powerpole adapter as well.. I like how ryobu comes up with crazy stuff, or more use cases for their batteries.

[@thebigdoghimself]

​@sklise1 I was shocked at how big it was but yet the actual usable space is tiny.

[@TurboDV8]

I'm just thinking of all the money I'm going to save.

[@kd8opi]

I’m more shocked at the small volume, and how quickly it wiped out two 4ah batteries which you can’t recharge in the cooler. If it were half the price it’d still make way more sense to get a large standard cooler and fill it with ice or freezer packs and have a way more useful sized cooler that stays cold for days no power needed. If you didn’t own ryobi tools to begin with, it makes even less sense to drop a few hundred bucks in addition to the cooler to get a couple batteries and a separate charger to run this thing for a few hours. As cool as ryobi is about finding new devices for their batteries, I think this one is a miss.

[@thebigdoghimself]

@@kd8opi If it were made by Ego, i'd buy it only because I have a ton of their big batteries.

[@james2042]

put everything in it, plug it into the wall or 12v outlet to get it down to temp then use the batteries to maintain it. Odds are you're gonna either be in your yard or have to transport this somewhere before its used so just use external power to boot

[@klwarhouse]

Once a year, me and the family go on a months-long camping trip. Im looking to grab one of these coolers since I'm HEAVY in the Ryobi line up. I've looked everywhere though to see if anyone knew if the 12ah batteries would fit. Thank you for covering this, you have once again sold me on another tool. 🤣

[@adirondackwoodsman]

Thanks for the review. I was looking for something like this a few months ago when we were taking a trip to Atlanta.

[@josijo]

Im excited to check it out. I have a 22qt $300 one that stays in our truck, itx great for groceries, bringing drinks to the beach and we use it almost everytime we go to town. Only problem is when we go to the beach for the day we kill our battery running it. So having the battery power to run it through a night of camping or a day of beaching is really ideal. I would like to solar charge inputs though, that would be a real sweet setup.

[@rodneystewart8958]

[@ndanieltx]

Shocked that at that price point it doesn't charge the batts when plugged into AC wall power. That is a huge feature oversight for $500 😒

[@loriekaczmarek9788]

I've been waiting for the follow up model. Hope it charges batteries when plugged in to ac.

[@Kylewraps]

This would actually be a game changer for people that live in their cars / cans since it can not only cool things but also freeze

[@CorgiDaddy]

I can wait for it to hit Direct Tools.

[@Pro1er]

I want one but it will still be too expensive for me.

[@Nick_Gerr-Pries]

A little bit of forward planning goes a long way-plug it into mains power the night before with beverages in. The next day when you’re ready to go out on your day, it won’t have to cool it down from a high temp.

[@TyeWills]

I travel a lot and had this last summer for a few trips. I’d run it on 12v all day while driving. And I’d charge the batteries while driving. When I was done moving for the day I’d clip the batteries in and leave it in the truck overnight. It worked great but it’s bulky for the cold space that it has.

[@tjsells9288]

[@omarhayward742]

I've had this cooler for about a month now, & I absolutely love it, except the pricing is too high for only 24quarts, but other than that, it's an awesome cooler. But May I ask where did you get that "Unplug with Ryobi 18v one +" decal sticker decal from? Please help.

[@logothaironsides2942]

We have just bought a very similar fridge made by worx (who also make a tool system with shared batteries). I was lucky to find one for £149 in the recent sales. 2 compatible batteries set me back £58 (20v , 6AH). Its just me and my husband camping so we dont need a huge fridge. I like that it can run off a powerstation, car 12v, AC AND the batts. I believe what is happening with the batteries is, it uses one, then the other. If you plug into AC it will charge the needy one and then the other.

[@DG-mo5kr]

As a OTR trucker I like this. I like the fact that it is a freezer and has battery options. I think it is a little small. It would be nice to see bigger options. Would be nice to know how durable and long lasting this is as many electric coolers like this don’t last very long if you use them all the time 24/7 as truckers do. Comparing price to a Dometic cooler it is a little bit lower plus you have the battery option. But it is smaller and you don’t have several sizes to pick from. I’m interested. Wish EGO would make this since I already have their batteries and lawn tools. Thanks for the review!

[@Zenith_V]

I know a solar company called “renogy” has a similar cooler with two separate sections for fridge and freezer with power station and vehicle battery options

[@zgomez68]

So does ecoflow and it has an ice maker

[@Zenith_V]

@@zgomez68 they really coming out with some neat things

[@Klaaism]

Aye it looks handy for quite a few situations. Shame it doesn't double as a charger too, or have more outlets when on a hardline.

[@OzSteve]

Great review. One question How many beer bottles do you think you could get in there? 24?

[@blueschild61]

If this could run off of solar panels and also doubled as a battery charger, I would happily pay $1000 for this. Also, RYOBI, why on earth didn't you make the lid white? That's just stupidly counter productive. I'm still gonna have to get one. Thanks for the great review. Cheers.

[@Andy-df5fj]

It can run off 12 volts which means it can run off solar.

[@kylefowler5082]

Great video, I enjoyed your testing of its performance and also showing that even the 12ah batteries fit. As a tradesman who keeps a cooler in the van stocked year round for me and my help this looks like a great idea. However for a "worry free" experience with this cooler it sure seems like an expensive way to go about it. By "worry free" I would want to have at least four 8 or 9 amp hour batteries to go with it and a dual bay charger so a set of 2 batteries could last 24 hours without issue even with the van having to set in the sun. Then at the end of the work day switch out the batteries and charge the dead ones simultaneously. Rinse & repeat daily. Any more effort than that and I might as well stop at the gas station every day {in the summer} and buy ice like I currently do. So a little math and even cheating a little by buying four 9ah batteries from Direct Tools at $78 a piece and driving 45 minutes one way to a Direct Tools to get them I'm at $1000 all in. A little more math and it would take around 2 to 2.5 years to break even on the purchase versus buying a $35 cooler and on average buying ice around 2.5 to 3 times a week (depends on the season obviously). So it can be cost effective but it definitely has a steep entrance price. Sorry for the long winded post but for someone like me the math was worth it to know how to spend my hard earned money! Hopefully someone else gets something out of it. Cheers!

[@Sylvan_dB]

Or since you are talking about a dedicated battery, buy a $350 LiFePO4 12v, 100ah battery and run it from that. To charge it at home with a 20amp charger (seems to be the sweet spot) add $50-100. Sometimes a 10a charger can be found in the $30-ish range and it would charge it from empty to full in about 14 hours. If you have an inverter in your van you could use the same charger there (a 20amp charger needs about 300 watts) or you could get a DC to DC charger for the van to charge while driving.

[@stevenpellegrino997]

When does Ryobi plan to release the new 8ah and 12 ah batteries. I just got two new 9ah batteries. For my duel port 36v Ryobi miter saw. The 9ah last 3-5 days in the construction site. The 12ah will last for ever. 👍Great video I like the cooler. But I'll stick with my Coleman power cooler for now.

[@cwmoore11]

They should invent a box that holds a bag of ice and a twelve pack. It would be way more convenient and maybe even cost less.

[@scottobrien963]

What temperature gauge you using?

[@imopn]

Would be nice if they made one that can use 2x 36v batteries. Could use the two big batteries from the lawnmower on a cooler when away for a day or two

[@sloanNYC]

At that price it just doesn't make sense for that small of a fridge/freezer. Maybe the next version they'll free up cooler space and move the batteries outside the main dimensions? You can get a BougeRV fridge/freezer with dual zones for less with much more space. A battery is extra, but it makes more sense to me. Or go Iceco with a proven track record as well. These might sell to some, but these and their 1800w power sources just aren't competitive price/performance.

[@tinytim45601]

I really like this concept! I currently use an Igloo iceless cooler, it works okay especially if the chest and product is pre-cooled. But a TE-Cooler device can only do so much plus it can and will run a starter battery down if you forget to keep an eye on it.. I like the capability to freeze, auto off feature and still portable & off grid if needed. Like most every other Ryobi product I'll wait until they offer a couple 8 or 9 AH batteries in that price ;)

[@paulowen4328]

I'm gonna get one and paint it red and put a Milwaukee sticker on it. 3d print a Ryobi to Milwaukee battery adapter and boom I get to piss off offend everyone. 😮😊😅😂

[@Sefton.]

Good review, appreciate the content. Just some slight repetition in the first minute where you covered the power inputs twice.

[@DayvidSlice]

I do like the fact that it comes with the wall and 12v plug. But the price point seems pretty steep. When you can get a pretty decent battery power station and a 12v fridge for about that price..

[@bearkawiboy6246]

They are all over priced. But I’d buy the Makita for a little more money. It’s worth the extra cash! Sent one of these back. They are sketchy in operation, build quality isn’t near as good, Makita has an internal led light, also run time was longer, drain plug didn’t leak like the ryobi did and I trust it more than the ryobi after the experience we had! The Makita for what it’s worth can also be used as a warmer. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@dale5282]

For that price point there are others on the market with two compartments that can both freeze or refrigerate.

[@bearkawiboy6246]

They ain’t cordless!

[@IMRROcom]

how well will it hold a 1 gallon jug of milk?????

[@MattManduke]

If I compare it to wynter Dometic freezers it is inferior I was hoping to find the 18 volt feature to last longer than it does other comparable freezers that run on 12v/110v are more efficient and give more freezer/fridge space they do cost more but the cost is Justified because they are also more efficient on energy and space

[@Peter-yn8uy]

Like Makita it probably has a small condensing unit in it and that is not cheap.

[@greggv8]

How much are the 12AH batteries?

[@the-original-ghost]

Price is out of the park.Are those HP batteries?

[@jamminwrenches860]

I use the 12v charger and it will blow my power port fuse so i understand why they couldn't offer pass thru charging. If charging one batt pulls so much theres no way you can run a compressor too. Maybe charging while the comp is off?

[@jimyeats]

It would only charge batteries when on AC power (or should). I wouldn’t expect it to charge batteries when on 12v power.

[@kenrodriguez9645]

Yeah, no pass through charging of the batteries is a massive loss. My use case is to leave it in the trunk of the car with waters and gatorades all the time. I drive my car at least once a day, or probably even every 16 hours. The battery keeps them cold when the Alternator is off, the car charges the 18v batteries up and runs the cooler when it’s on. Plus you always have a place for cold groceries.

[@CCWSig]

I bought the Anker one. Price sucks just as bad, but will recharge the batteries off of 12v.

[@justaninja1]

Can you plug it into the Ryobi solar panel?

[@swedishpsychopath8795]

Maybe RYOBI got their 24 hours run time on the norwegian north or south poles where the thing was already deep frozen when they started to measure? You weren't even close to what they claimed.

[@Ohiostategenerationx]

That's crazy high priced.

[@vicpetrishak7705]

Is it possible to partially fill the compartment with ice and maintain it ?

[@bearkawiboy6246]

Yeah but if it’s like the one I returned the drain plug will leak and of course your capacity goes down. I ended up buying the Makita and it’s a much better cooler. Better performance, better build quality but not a better price but worth the extra money.

[@ShrinkHouseGamer]

Crazy idea. If you can't chill it in advanced can you put ice in it to speed up the process with cooling? I was thinking of using this to bring ice cream to a picnic and have it stay Frozen

[@addicted2tools]

Obviously 😂 thats y it has a drain and the addition of ice will make it last way longer

[@Turk380]

no probably not. These types of portable fridges are usually not water-tight. the drain is just there for rinsing it out / draining condensation after use.

[@georgehuerta1990]

That’s pretty nice kind of expensive $500 and then you gotta go out and buy the big batteries to really get more runtime really looking closer to like $650 maybe. I don’t know I think just buying a regular yeti cooler with ice would be better for me I think.

[@RNMSC]

So, no Ryobi retention system plates integrated into it, I suspect that one of their deeper portable toolboxes, some pink styro board, and a plastic bag will get you a cooler that will work for most people for a lot less. As others have noted, $500 covers a lot of ice.

[@jamesinscoe9267]

Informative video , Thanks. Now lets talk about how Ryobi has left its primary market that allowed them to grow to the mammoth they are today. I am 60 years old and have well over 200 Ryobi tools and at least 40 batteries . I even have some European Ryobi tools that were never offered here in the USA. The past 3 years Ryobi has deserted their customer base in pursuit of BIG PROFITS by jacking almost all the tools up in price so much that the normal user can no longer justify the purchase . Drills, saws, whatever they are making have gone from starting at the $49 dollar range to almost $200 for each tool. Its pretty bad.. Take the power source they came out with at $59, I used mine every single day in the truck. The same and new model is out at $100, REALLY? Basically doubling the price. The sad part is Ryobi went from the McDonalds Theory of selling EVERYBODY a hamburger at .29 cents and making a ton of money to now selling only a select few a hamburger at $5 bucks. What you will see is people leaving the brand, or like me buying hardly anything new from them at all when in the past I was always the first to have whatever tool came out that month being that early adopter/ tester to not even buying one single tool or battery during this years Ryobi Days...NEVER, EVER thought I would NOT buy something but they have left a BAD BAD taste in my mouth by jacking up the prices to triple and quadruple of what they used to be. I think this will come back to bite them HARD when the economy slows down or other people feel the way I do. I also think your seeing all theses new tool releases at high prices they will see bad sales numbers because they are charging DeWalt prices and its not a DeWalt , Once theses sales numbers drop they will drop the making of these tools thus any parts you need for them further alienating the customer base they are losing now. Hopefully Ryobi will see and read this but I know they won't change until they are force too, hopefully the Ryobi fans that made this company what it is will still be around and forgive them. If you agree with my thoughts please post your thoughts too so Ryobi people will have a better chance os seeing how the customer feels when they have that STICKER SHOCK of $500 for a tiny 11 inch by 11 inch cooler then $300 worth of batteries needed to have it run for a full day . Y'all enjoy your $800 dollar coolers !

[@DG-mo5kr]

Everything is going up in price right now. It’s called inflation. If Ryobi gets more competition in this cooler market the competition will force the prices down. I applaud Ryobi for making this cooler. Hope other companies like EGO do the same.

[@Silky_boi]

Leave it to Ryobi? Makita has had this for well over a year now.

[@Turk380]

man, I was excited until I saw it wasn't for the 40v battery line. But I guess it's probably running the same SECOP 12/24v compressor that all the other portable fridges on the market are using. Just needs better options to plug it into a 3rd party battery pack. having to run the power brick on 120v just to get 12v again will tank the efficiency.

Great concept, but appears to be a battery hog. Definitely think adding ice is required to get any respectable time out of it. Might just be better off with a nice 7-10 day cooler and ice.

It’s not specifically a battery hog, you just aren’t going to see ANY true fridge last long on 8 amp hours of battery life. This is more of a 12v fridge that you would use with an auxiliary setup or vehicle that has electric hookups and then you could keep it running with the 18v batteries when you transport it between plug ins.
