nice review , for the plastic threaded parts , I would probably set two copper adapters on there permanently , this way more worries about potentially damaging the plastic threads , i bet it would be handy to have
Looking for a pump for a shower in a camper van and found this. I think there are better choices. But since I'm here, let me say that Ryobi's customer support is excellent. I had a battery fail to take a charge. I didn't have the sales receipt. I called Ryobi customer support. With just the serial number to go on, they immediately sent me a replacement battery at no charge to me. (And, to make things even better , English was their first language!)
This unit looks like what I'll be leaning towards. I actually consider the plastic threads an advantage, because I'm running well water and it corrodes and eats through brass like hell. A way around the plastic threads that I've found is buying a quick connect/disconnect adapter to thread on to, in this case, the pump itself and then the other end on whatever hose you'll be using. I specifically use that method on my garden hose as the ends of the hose are aluminum and a brass fitting coupled to it, regardless of water hardness, will cause galvanic corrosion. This way, I can put a quick connect onto the hose and not have to worry about any corrosion. Great video!
I've owned this pump for a few years now. My opinion. I'm trying to get rid of it. First off, as mentioned, the plastic threads. Second, it will make you go deaf from how insanely loud it is. It also doesn't do the auto shutoff thing. I much rather get the Milwaukee M18 transfer pump.
I completely agree about the plastic threads and the noise level/pitch. Interesting, I hadn't tried the shut off feature, since it's bad for the pump and I didn't want to shorten the life. I looked at the M18 transfer pump as well. It's got brass threads and a 50% higher max flow rate. But it was nearly twice the price too and doesn't have a hybrid plug-in option. If I was going to use it every day, I absolutely would have picked the M18. But for the limited use I plan for this, I think the Ryobi was best for me.
@@DoresoomReviews I've used one of those connectors for power myself because it's a very positive connection but yeah it's a common audio connector usually.
Every Spring, my sump pit looks like your in-laws. I tried buying the Ryobi pump when it first came out but it was sold out everywhere. I really doubt the 50 foot head claim, and they probably used a 1/4" I.D. discharge hose. One of the biggest complaints is like you said, it is super loud and the pitch is really annoying. I keep hoping that they will offer it as a free tool for Ryobi days, but no luck so far.
Yeah, it's really nice to have as an extra bit of flood "insurance." I think I checked every store inventory in my area online when I bought mine, and only one of them had any in stock. As for Ryobi days, they're usually sub $99 tools, but I think they have had more expensive ones offered occasionally. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!
@@DoresoomReviews Thanks! LOL I do check Direct Tools Outlet occasionally, but I never see a new one, only rarely a used one. I haven't had good luck with their "reconditioned" tools, so unless I can get them dirt cheap, I avoid them.
I personally would not use it for drinking water, especially since I've used it to clear out nasty sump pits. I think it comes pre lubricated with oil too, so it's not like you can just use food safe oil instead. If you really want to know for sure, you can ask Ryobi customer support, but I'm pretty sure they'll say it's for non-potable water.
Good explanation and will work for the occasional time I will be using it flexible hoses would be better *its noisy* overall I just wanted something to empty my 1000lt rainwater tank for occasional use its ideal goes with all the other Ryobi 18v tools I have. The bracket (DUH!!) I thought it was a storage place for the bottle of mineral oil😁
I can't find anything yet online, but I am thinking about hooking this pump up to about 10ft of mister tubes and putting them on my wakeboard tower of my boat. I don't suspect any issues with the PSI the pump produces, but have you seen anyone using this transfer pump in this manner? Thanks in advance! Very informative video!
@@DoresoomReviews Thanks so much! since you replied, I upgraded to a Ryobi 2900PSI gas pressure washer, I also have a 35 Gallon Water tank, this should work great with the pump, yeah?
Can i use this pump on beach to pump sea water for fill a pool for my baby? I need to buy a long hose, but i need to know if this pump work on this scenario. Thanks
Generally all types of rubber are compatible with aqueous salt solutions. If it were me, I'd use it for that application, and flush with fresh water afterward to mitigate any chance of corrosion from the salt water.
If the source liquid is in a bucket next to the pump will it pump sufficiently up to an attic height of 30ft with about a 2 gallong flow noting its supposedly rated 50ft but we know thats not the real deal.
Yeah, I think the 50 ft rating is total head, which includes friction losses. 30 ft height sounds about right, I think my back of the napkin calculations were 35-40 ft.
@@DoresoomReviews Thanks. I am hoping it will be strong enough to be able to pump diluted glycol from my basement to the attic through its loop and back which I estimate about 30ft based on 9ft basement and 1st floor thru the 8 ft 2nd floor....
Try turning it off, unplugging the battery or cord, reconnecting the battery or cord, and then turning the switch on again. If that doesn't work, consult page 8 of the manual for what the flashing lights mean: images.thdstatic.com/catalog/pdfImages/80/80bf8efc-af5a-497d-8c80-f024824ba14f.pdf
Question, what is the input Amps on the power brick for this? I ask because I was wondering if I could power it with the Ego Power 150w inverter I have.
Ah sorry, I read your comment as "it will work" as in you'd already tried it. I think it would probably work, but the gas might destroy the gasket and impeller. And doing so would void the warranty.
If you're just pulling a few feet up to the pump, it's self-primed every time for me. If you have to lift the full length of the 6' intake hose, then you'll want to at least fill the impeller intake with water beforehand and get as much water in the intake hose as you can before starting.
As long as they have water running through them, they can go for hours and hours. Longest I've used mine at a stretch is 12 hours continuous when my sump pump failed. I think I had 3X 4Ah batteries in constant charge/discharge rotation.
I doubt it. Oil and water viscosities are extremely different. I have tried pumping oil with a water pump before and the impeller just cavitates and creates bubbles in the oil.
I don't know, since I haven't tried it for that. It would probably work, but would void the warranty and could degrade the o-ring and impeller at an accelerated rate depending on the fluid.
Their official replacement parts store is here: ryobipower.ordertree.com/ You can enter in the part numbers you need. Looks like the 019711001012 impeller is $7.59 and the 019711001014 impeller cover seal is $1.49. Pretty reasonable, but I don't know what shipping will look like.
I haven't done a formal runtime test on it. Ryobi's specifications are 200 gallons on a 4Ah, which should come out to around 37 minutes if you go off their 325 GPM flowrate. Those specifications are probably at almost zero head though, so if you have to pump to a significant height I bet you'll get less runtime out of it.
I haven't put it through a torture test of long term continuous running, so I'm not sure. It did great running about 30 minutes straight, and then periodically for a few minutes at a time emptying the shop vac. We were still on the first 6Ah battery we started with though.
I haven't tested that myself, since the only time I was pumping a large amount of water was in the middle of a basement flood. Ryobi claims 50 gallons per battery Ah, but they don't specify head height. So assume that's only for a few feet of lift.
For under $20, I got the pump in link below. www.milescraft.com/product/drillpump750/ Mounted it on a piece of wood, and got a set of washing machine hoses to attach to the input and output. I have my Ryobi 18V drill, running in reverse because that’s the direction of rotation required, spinning that pump. The drill could also be AC mains powered if that is what you prefer - that pump doesn’t care. Depending on your needs, it might suffice.
@@User0resU-1 - after five years, you might first want to disassemble the housing and lubricate the impeller blades with the kind of grease plumbers use for faucets. The pump manufacturer recommends occasional lubrication.

One of those ” never know when I might need it tools”
Absolutely. And it's always when the home improvement stores are closed!
I'm a plumber so I use it for hot water tanks
These things would be great if they had an auto on/off flow detection so you could hook up a garden hose spray handle on the output hose.
Needs to be submersible for that I agree though have to stand and watch it

Correct on both counts. The plastic threads can be solved by quick connects. The noise is another level hurt.
@Entelijant Yes they are adapters. Not expensive either.
Us the milwauki loud ?
Interesting choice of an XLR connector for the power, definitely a solid connection but nowhere near waterproof. Seems well priced for what it is.
I didn't know that was a standard connector, thanks for pointing that out. Makes sense from a manufacturing cost perspective though.
@@DoresoomReviews I've used one of those connectors for power myself because it's a very positive connection but yeah it's a common audio connector usually.
Perfect I can use this to wash down equipment in the winter with 5gallon bucket when the hoses are frozen

With the oil you need to put in the pump can you still use this for drinking water

I think it should run them pretty well, but it's going to be LOUD while running.
This is great! will this work with a Ryobi 1800 PSI pressure washer? and also a water tank?
I'd think it should work great with both.
@@DoresoomReviews Thanks so much! since you replied, I upgraded to a Ryobi 2900PSI gas pressure washer, I also have a 35 Gallon Water tank, this should work great with the pump, yeah?
Everything ryobi seems to benefit from quick connect ends lol
Can i use this pump on beach to pump sea water for fill a pool for my baby? I need to buy a long hose, but i need to know if this pump work on this scenario. Thanks
It should work for that, but I'd be sure to rinse it thoroughly with fresh water afterwards to avoid corrosion.
Can you use this for pumping out a water softener brine tank? Brine tank uses softening salt so not sure if that would ruin the impeller.
Generally all types of rubber are compatible with aqueous salt solutions. If it were me, I'd use it for that application, and flush with fresh water afterward to mitigate any chance of corrosion from the salt water.
@@DoresoomReviews ok perfect thank you, as a apprentice and water treatment tech, this will come in handy for the removal of old softeners.
If the source liquid is in a bucket next to the pump will it pump sufficiently up to an attic height of 30ft with about a 2 gallong flow noting its supposedly rated 50ft but we know thats not the real deal.

Being a Plumbing Contractor, would this handle pumping slightly muddy water from a hole or water meter box?
I think it would. The sump pit water I used it on had some debris in it, but it wasn't too extreme of a test though.
@@DoresoomReviews thank you for the advice
Good job with the video mr Bonanza
What should you do when you turn on, it beeps and the light flashes but doesn’t work?
Try turning it off, unplugging the battery or cord, reconnecting the battery or cord, and then turning the switch on again.

Question, what is the input Amps on the power brick for this? I ask because I was wondering if I could power it with the Ego Power 150w inverter I have.
It says 3.5A @120VAC for input. Sorry, sounds like the inverter wouldn't work.
@@DoresoomReviews Thanks. ...so it's around 400w give or take.
Is it safe to use 100ft long hose as the out connection. I don't want to buy another hose
That should be fine. You'll have a slightly slower flowrate than with a shorter hose though, due to the extra friction.
Can it be used to wash a car using water from a rain barrel?
It won't be super high pressure, but it will get water from a rain barrel to wherever you can reach with a hose.
I know you said it is not recommended for gasoline, but will it work for gas.
LOL, thanks for confirming! 😄
@@DoresoomReviews I don't understand your answer, I asked if it will work for gas?
Ah sorry, I read your comment as "it will work" as in you'd already tried it. I think it would probably work, but the gas might destroy the gasket and impeller. And doing so would void the warranty.
Gas and electricity not a good match........... an accident waiting to happen.
Stupid question: how do you prime this pump?
If you're just pulling a few feet up to the pump, it's self-primed every time for me. If you have to lift the full length of the 6' intake hose, then you'll want to at least fill the impeller intake with water beforehand and get as much water in the intake hose as you can before starting.
The loudness is a deal breaker for me. Neighbours won't appreciate the noise of me watering the garden from my water butts the with this thing.
Yep, this pump will make your neighbors hate you real fast if you use it daily at 6AM! 😂
@@DoresoomReviews yeah ,spot on. love my garden ; but keeping the peace ✌️ is a priority.
How long can this run before over heating?
As long as they have water running through them, they can go for hours and hours. Longest I've used mine at a stretch is 12 hours continuous when my sump pump failed. I think I had 3X 4Ah batteries in constant charge/discharge rotation.
definitely don't want to be oiling the impeller if you're transferring drinking water.
This isn't meant for potable water. It comes pre-oiled, and will tear itself apart early if you don't oil it.
Can you transfer clean motor oil from 5 gal bucket?
I doubt it. Oil and water viscosities are extremely different. I have tried pumping oil with a water pump before and the impeller just cavitates and creates bubbles in the oil.
Good review 😊
what happen ifyou use it for transmission oil or coolant?
I don't know, since I haven't tried it for that. It would probably work, but would void the warranty and could degrade the o-ring and impeller at an accelerated rate depending on the fluid.
@@DoresoomReviews if you can replace those things I think it should not matter
