In the past couple of weeks we saw a lot of new Ryobi 18V cordless tools come out and I thought that was it for a while but it turns out theres more as more have been spotted thanks to Chris Plank and Cody Robertson! With their collective efforts we now learn that Ryobi has a new brushless drywall screw gun P225, 18 Liters backpack chemical sprayer P2840, hybrid color range LED light P795, and a new lightweight 90 MPH 200 CFM leaf blower P2190. All 4 new Ryobi tools mentioned are cordless and 18V battery powered tools.
Ryobi 18V Brushless Drywall Screw Gun P225
Cordless drywall screws guns have become increasingly popular over the years. Ryobi is now ready to add one to its system. It is not Ryobi’s first drywall screw gun, nor is it their first cordless model. However, this is a modern model. You’d expect more from more expensive brands, such as a brushless motor that drives more screws per charge, and the ability to save battery power by only activating it when the screw is being fastened. You can press and hold the trigger until the fastener has been pressed into the drywall. This feature can be activated or deactivated by simply pressing a button at the bottom of the tool. Ryobi calls it Quietdrive but is not unique to them, its just a marketing name which gives the impression that they are the only company with that feature, but is really just another name for a feature found on some other brands. Ryobi claims you can drive up to 3,000 screws per charge using the 4.0 ah battery.Other features include an adjustable and removable nose cone, LED light with afterglow, improved magnetic tray and an improved belt clip. The belt clip has a new beefed up wire frame design and instead of being screwed in, clips into place for easy changing between left and right handed positions without the use of any tools. At the time of writing this model was not listed on the Home Depot website which means I dont know how much it will retail for and dont know when it will come out but it should be soon.

Ryobi 18V 18 Liters backpack chemical sprayer P2840
Ryobi released a cordless 18V chemical sprayer not too long ago. Now they have a new model with some upgrades. First of all it gets a larger 18 Liters tank for longer spraying sessions and less refilling for extended use. Filling up a 18 Liters tank with liquid will surely get heavy quickly and to reduce fatigue they made it a backpack model for easier carrying.With no pumping required and a translucent 4 Gal. Monitoring fluid levels is easy with the tank. This Chemical Sprayer has a durable brass nozzle that adjusts for multiple spray patterns and the chemical tank cap doubles as a measuring cup. For additional convenience and the tool comes with a 2.0 Ah Lithium-Ion Battery and is backed by a 3-year warranty. It will be out soon, no word on when exactly and it will retail for and includes a 2.0 ah battery and charger.

- Material for tanks: High Density Polethylene
- Hose Length: 1.2 m

Ryobi 18V Hybrid LED Color Range Work Light P795
This light reminds me of the Ryobi hybrid 20 watt LED work light that I have and offers some similarities like the hybrid nature of the tool which can be cordless using 18v batteries or corded with the use of an extension cord. Although it has a lower lumen output at 1200, it is still bright. It also features a tilting head that allows for different viewing angles. The most important difference is the ability to adjust the color temperature of the P795 model from 2700 to 5000 Kelvin degrees. This does not change the actual room temperature, but rather the white balance. This lets you change the LED hue to a warmer yellowish tone or to a cooler blueish tone to better suit the application at hand. By letting you change color temperatures you can adjust the white balance to give you more accurate colors in the dark. You wont be able to mount the light to an exposed 24 or hang on a string but it offers the ability to mount on a tripod. This light is priced at
- Lumen Output: High (lumen output 1200), Medium (lumen output 700), Low (lumen output 100)
- Runtime: Over 24 Hours of runtime using a ONE+ High Capacity Lithium-Ion Battery
- Weight: 12 kg
Ryobi 18V 90 MPH 200 CFM leaf blower P2190
Last but not least is a new cordless 18V leaf blower model P2190 with 90 MPH and 200 CFM output. Not the most powerful leaf blower by any means but at least its light at only 2 kg. Ryobi states it is ideal for hard surfaces and that makes sense as I wouldnt expect it to be powerful enough to be very effective at blowing leaves on grass. This lightweight blower is ideal for blowing saw dust and drywall dust in a workshop. It is very affordable at only, which includes a 2.0 Ah battery and charger. The blower is now available.
