Thank you, Shannon Evans, for your video. Regarding 0:56, the brush on a brushed motor is made from Graphite which is a form of Carbon. Graphite is also used in pencil lead as well as lubricant.
Thank you. I have both brushed & brushless Ryobi 18v tools. My Ryobi brushed string trimmer & angle grinder drains 4 Ah batteries quicker than my brushless drills. Keep’m coming
Well of course, but it totally depends on the work and resistance being done. I imagine both the string trimmer and grinder pull much more power from them than a drill.
I always say, just spend the extra money and get the brushless tool, you won’t regret it. I try to only buy Ryobi’s brushless version of every tool if it’s a possibility.
Wow!! This was so informative and I love having such an empowered woman teach me these things and not some handyman type like they usually are. Thanks, Ryobi!
I have a few brushless ryobi tools but the dual roller vacuum is the best it has more suction than my dyson v11 I also have the brushless 12 inch 18v chainsaw it's awesome plus a few other brushed and brushless tools
Just bought a brushless hammer drill to replace my old brushed. To my disappointment it does not have nearly the power of the brushed model. I knew there had to be a catch. I can hold the chuck in my hand and stop the motor even though it's rated at a higher torque. My old drill would tear your hand off. Just ordered a new brush motor for the old drill.
Great explanation but why does it look like the trigger isn't being depressed all the way on the brushed tool compared to the brushless at 2:31? I have the brushed impact driver and it definitely drives one of them bolts faster than that.
The brushless impact driver was also using a HP battery it seems. Which is what makes brushless better. If you use a Hp battery there is a significant uptick in power over a non HP battery. But if you don’t have HP batteries either tool will work the same
Since I’ve gone to the brushless impact driver I’ve noticed that my Phillips head bits are breaking. If there only was a setting that I could dial it back a bit!
If you reach out to Ryobi they will probably replace it for you. The transition into brushless is going to have some speed bumps but it's worth the pursuit.
That is what I was thinking. Brushed tools you just change the brushes when needed for cents and tool keeps going. Brushless are controlled by electric circuit boards -damaged-throw away. Too costly.
There must be some advantage to brushed over brushless. I know some tradesmen with really old DeWalt tools and the older ones are all brushed. That speaks volumes. I believe brushless might have more power, but don't last as long.
The question I have isn’t with motors It has to do with the 40v pole chain saw When it was built how come there wasn’t a short adapter made instead of the long extension to connect the power supply to the chain saw head it would have made more sense to have the short adapter so if you wanted to just use the chain saw head with out a extension first as it gets too cumbersome to use it up close I have the RY40506
Brushless units are also for homeowner, DIY users when the tool will be used frequently like for cleaning and other purposes. I use a brushless string trimmer with attachments that has saved me tons of money on different tools and labor that I do in my yard. My older brushed string trimmer took longer to do the job and failed too soon. It only lasted 6 years. Well, at least it lasted longer than the warranty. :) I couldn't imagine going back to spending a longer time doing yard work! :/ I just need my 9 ( going on 10! ) year old brushed lawn mower to fail... Lol!
@@johnstubb2196 That's beyond my capability. AND, I won't pay someone to do it. Eh... We live in a throw away society. I'll just throw it away or give it to my neighbor who fixes and resells things. He says he didn't know how to fix it, but he'll figure it out. His words.
There are two things that you forgot to mention when it came to your brushed versus brushless tools. Unlike brushed models, brushless motors are easy to control at low speeds, which also makes such motors good for RC vehicles. You also forgot to mention that such motors offer quieter operation.
worng info: Performance will be same if you use same battery pack on both sides, on this demo, brushed one has normal battery pack and brushless has HP battery pack!
She tried very hard not to laugh in the camera when she said "our brushed unit will get the job done." It was so bad the camera had to take a break. In other words, go with the brushless.
Incorrect. For the same price a brushed is a higher quality, longer lasting, more robust tool. Brushed will also weigh less and have more finesse/control due to the design. If you want a drill to last and do any job brushed is best for the price. Never need to fap about with batteries or charging or running out of charge. That said if you have a good charge and battery ready production line, use multiple tools that use the same batteries, there are multiple people on site so multiple cords are multiple trip hazards, speed is more important than finesse, and cost is irrelevant as it is a tax deduction AND you pass on the cost (and replacement costs) to customers than cordless is great, bugger the environment, churn and burn baby .. also better for tool makers!

Very simple and clear explanation, great job
Great video very well explaned thank you
Thanks for the explanation,I was not sure how exactly the brushless motors worked. 👍
Awesome video. Keep posting more fun videos!!!
Exactly what I needed to know

What do you do when the controller chip goes out?
@@Mk-uh4jo Buy another tool I guess lol. You have far less issues with brushless tools vs brushed tools.
Wow!! This was so informative and I love having such an empowered woman teach me these things and not some handyman type like they usually are. Thanks, Ryobi!
Thanks. Most casual users are fine with the brushed models. It's the pros that need brushless tools because of the heavy use they get.

@OldGoatWorkshop and @nestr2007, great observations! Ryobi needs to address these issues which seemingly nullify the test altogether.

Shouldn’t really be using Philips head on an impact, too much torque. You’ll also run a much higher chance of during your screw heads
get Milwaukee bits
I have over 20 Ryobi 18 plus tools. Some are over 13 years old. The only tools that have died are the brushless.
If you reach out to Ryobi they will probably replace it for you. The transition into brushless is going to have some speed bumps but it's worth the pursuit.
I did call Ryobi and they said it could be repaired but the cost was equal to buying new.
Thanks for this comment, just made my purchase decision easy!!

😅
Amazing explanation, and better yet, Now I know hot to pronounce Ryobi!
Does ryobi have a non-HP variation of their bldc tools?
Clear, concise explanation that was as easy on the subject matter as it was on the eyes. Thank you.
The two types of motors are also known as "brushed commutator" and "electronic commutator."
There must be some advantage to brushed over brushless. I know some tradesmen with really old DeWalt tools and the older ones are all brushed. That speaks volumes. I believe brushless might have more power, but don't last as long.

If you open the electric motor and change brushes you have 6 more years for less that 2 dollars.

RYOBI 👌👌🤩

Ryobi need to make a big sds hammer drill that will take 2 to 4 in concrete hole bits
Does HP = Brushless?
Yes

Buy once, cry once. Spending a little extra for the better, longer lasting tool is usually worth it.
If you are a pro consider ms ryobi big brother Milwaukee
And now i know. 😮
old blue ryobi is better!!
Generally excellent, helpful video but I found all the arm-waving a little distracting.
The brushless is gonna win everytime when use squeeze the trigger fully and half squeeze trigger on the brushed
how much is the price of handrill
Not to be confused with bush vs bushless.

I never use Brushed only Brushless
Stil can't decide.

You should discontinue brushed
NO point in having a tool with electrical brushes.
Please don’t mansplain to me. I’m not kidding this is awesome.
She is kinda cute
Definitely ❤
Brushed or brushless. It doesn’t matter
I like women with big ears
