Hi. we've been electrifying our yard tools for a few years, and have a Ryobi RY48ZTR, Ryobi chainsaw, trimmers, etc (40V) and some tools using the 18V "One+". Hope to get some good advice here - thanks in advance!

Don’t buy Ryobi tools would be my advice.

Thanks but, as the saying goes, YMMV. I've had two problems with Ryobi tools (only 1 of which involved getting parts); I've had way more problems than that with GM dealers.

If it is just homeowner occasional use, Ryobi does pretty well from what I have experienced. I do not recommend them for commercial use because they are just not that built for that.
The advantage of battery power tools is no mixing fuel or dealing with tune up. The disadvantage is the batteries going bad from sitting or being left on a charger all the time.
