With Christmas right around the corner, it’s the perfect time to start thinking about some DIY gift ideas for that handy-man or woman in your life.
We’ve come up with a list of cordless tools that we think partner a Badaptor perfectly. All of the great value tools below are available from Ryobi One+.
Impact Driver
A must-have tool for any tool shed, the impact driver is closely related to the drill, but with a bit more muscle.
An impact driver runs long screws into wood, metal, and other tough materials. These tools can produce more torque than a normal drill and are much less likely to burn out when used against a strong material.
If you can’t choose between an impact driver and a drill, the good news is that you can usually pick up a set containing both for a good price. Ryobi sell a variety of different drills and impact drivers with different speeds and power settings, so you’re spoilt for choice!
Palm Sander
The palm sander is a versatile, user-friendly tool that replaces hand sanding. These tools are great at removing paint, finishing off wooden surfaces before lacquering, and using between coats of paint to achieve a smooth finish.
Not only this, but it’s much more compact and easy to use compared to other options like the orbital sander. This also makes the palm sander better value, especially when you won’t need to buy another battery!
Ryobi’s One+ palm sander is less than half the price of other leading manufacturers offerings! Almost a no-brainer at this point.
Jigsaw
Just like the palm sander, the jigsaw is a versatile “go-to” tool. Its ability to cut through a large range of materials such as wood, metal, laminate, tile, etc, makes it a must-have tool for DIY. Just make sure you have the correct blades before attempting to cut through certain materials.
Most modern jigsaws are now cordless, which means they are excellent for use in any environment. Sometimes they can even eliminate the need for a large circular saw or reciprocating saw.
Again, the Ryobi jigsaw is much cheaper than its competitors’ variants. Not only this but several review sites such as Just Off Base and Tool Review Zone have given it high praise. They say that it boasts the same features as a lot of higher-end tools, but for a much lower price.
Battery Inverter
It’s not an obvious choice, but we believe this is rapidly becoming a must-have product – especially because we are constantly surrounded by technology.
The battery inverter turns your power tool battery into a source of AC power, so you can use corded products without the need for a mains power source. Perfect for powering laptops, radios, speakers, phone chargers, and outdoor lighting.
So if you’re on a particularly long car journey, or decide to go away camping, you’ll always have a source of 150-watt power at hand.
Ryobi are currently one of the only brands to make a battery inverter, and for a very reasonable price.
All the tools above work perfectly with a Badaptor. You can convert your current 18V battery from DeWalt, Makita, Milwaukee, Bosch Professional, Ridgid, or AEG to work with the entire range of Ryobi One+ tools. Head over to badaptor.com to get yours today.
