Nah you have to have the proof of purchase, the battery has to be under warranty, within the warranty period and you have to send them the specific label with a unique reference number they provide after they've approved an exchange
I sent them a picture of the serial with that sticker since the serial is etched onto the battery casing

Ok but as long as you buy a 12ah battery from a genuine seller you can get another free just lose the sticker on yours? 🤨 sounds a good deal tbh

I had to provide proof it was buggered, nothing physical like I just told them it's not accepting charge and is flashing
Seemed pretty easy to do tbh, try it🤣🤣

Aye seems an easy way to be untruthful but I'm sure they only request the stickers from larger tools and batteries
Seen a thing if you hook it up to another battery it may or may not bring it back to life?

Tried it, didn't work🤣
Haha yeah it’s very top heavy without the battery.
So actually easier to wield with the battery in. Even though it makes it heavier overall. If that makes sense?

I man mathsed the hell out of this. Started by looking at a £20 Parkside rotary tool from Lidl, then looked at a £200 Dremel. Settled on a £60 Ryobi because it was an absolute bargain compared to the Dremel, decided to ignore the fact it was 3 times more than I was originally planning to spend 🙃

well f**k.
Im about 30 minutes away from ordering a dremel. All the rest of my power tools are Ryobi.
Thanks, I guess? 🤣

You could just be a real man and get a Milwaukee rotary tool..
Bare units range from £60 and that's a small price to pay to be accepted by other alpha males..

I actually identify as a female, but thanks.
Joking aside, I has a peen, its just then ill be buying into the red eco system. Ive got plenty of Ryobi batteries and, for me, I just dont need tools that are that good. Other than DIY and some mechanic bits, I dont use power tools. I cant justify the extra
Milwaukee is just red ryobi anyway...

Exactly

I’m a Teal man really. But have a few bits of Red in stuff that they don’t make 😉

Lasts forever on a 6ah battery I assume as well?

It’s not something we use every day so I’d imagine yes it would last forever. Just depends how often you’re going to use it. The only thing I’ve found that really chews the batteries is the m12 die grinders.

Tbh I don’t need it, but had to do a job the other day where I used about 100 rivets and got bored very quickly of doing it manually!

New mid torque would do it, could buy body only and then get a charger and a 5ah battery separately total of £265.
Milwaukee M18FMTIW2F12-0 18V Fuel GEN2 Mid-Torque 1/2'' Impact Wrench with Frict
Milwaukee 5.0Ah LI Red Battery+Charger - PowerToolMate
Or kit with 2 batteries for £318.

I have all Ryobi stuff. Their impact gun is pretty decent for the money.
Worth checking out what torque you need for subframe bolts, adding 20% and then looking at specs on the impacts

There's only one colour we're gonna suggest
So buckle up, put your big boy pants on or simply go and f**king f**k yourself big time🤣🤣

I wouldn't buy a 1 off chinese tool like that, best to stick to a proper brand so you can buy different tool bodies and stick to the same quality battery. Corded tools are another story.

Got sick of buying Karcher/Nilfisk because they keep breaking.
So picked up one of these today and so far first impressions it is excellent, really well thought out design and plenty of power.

I have a few titan bits for where I just can't justify the Makita prices and they're all absolutely spot on.
Their SDS drills are disposable money and brilliant for chiselling out and generally s**t work that you don't want to ruin proper tools on.
