RYOBI 18V One+ HP Compact Impact Wrench Review [PSBIW25]

A compact impact wrench can be a very appreciated addition to your tool box. This new @RYOBITOOLSUSA 18V One+ HP compact impact wrench fits on the small end of an impact wrench trio. We've already reviewed their Mid-Torque and High-Torque models, which at larger and heavier. This RYOBI model PSBIW25 weighs barely over four pounds and can still break free most lug nuts. We pushed this 18V compact impact wrench to more than 400 ft-lbs of breakaway torque. These should hit the shelves of @HomeDepot in October 2022 for $139. They include a 3-year warranty as well.

Great video, Tim. Enjoyed this one. The visual timer is a great aid as well, love your stuff! Glad to see there's finally a 1/2" compact HP, and HP tools/bundles seem to get some serious discount deals as well from time to time. That said, having a hard time placing where this one belongs in the grand scheme of things. There's some serious compact tools out now that are smaller and would appear to be more powerful.

The timer is a great addition to the reviews.

Even if it's not the most compact impact wrench, it's nice to see a tool overachieve it's specifications. 400 ft-lbs is nothing to sneeze at.

You can tell just by the sound of that unit it's more like a rigid, it's definitely going to perform to the ft-lbs it says it will. Great video Tim! 👍🇨🇦

If I’m watching a Ryobi Tool review and my wife hears, “I’m Tim Johnson, and you’re watching ShopTool Reviews”. She already knows money is about to be spent.😂💀 I currently have the mid and high torque impact wrenches, so this will be a nice addition to the set, especially with it being an overachiever. Thanks for another great review, Tim!

Come for a review, left with a new impact❤ great video, good stuff from ryobi😮

[Tokkets]

It would be interesting to see the difference in battery performance by starting with the 2ah HP battery, going thru break away tests untill it fails, then swapping to the 4ah HP battery. And when that fails to breakaway swap in the 6ah HP battery. Would be interesting to see what the customer would need to use to get advertised numbers and how much benefit the premium batteries give.

Loved the video, great testing as always Tim! I'm excited to see that Ryobi is finally bridging the gap between the 1/2" P262 mid torque and the 3/8" PSBIWO1. I have both and use them in the shop, and can say that while the P262 is very versatile and powerful, it's a little bulky for a mid torque. The PSBIW01 is very small and lightweight, but very low in power comparatively (I'm pretty sure it's because it's likely based directly off the compact impact driver). This new impact wrench seems to be in between both, which is something I've been hoping for for a while. Though, with its 18V battery, it's not going to be anywhere near as compact to fit in smaller spaces like the Milwaukee M12 Stubby.

[draytonPW]

I like the new graphic for the impact timer. You are truly the gold standard in this space.

[damson]

Got this with 2 4Ah for $100. Super stoked!!

[winkletown]

That's absolutely impressive especially since it's "rated" for 275 ft lbs. Guess it's about time for me to go shopping again 😜
Damn you tool tester man guy dude!!! Hahaha greatly appreciate the content for real.

[sociopathmercenary]

Pick this up for $52 on sale after coupon on Black Friday 2023. It does everything I need

[leecarter]

Technology is crazy... Lug nuts are about all i need an impact for.... And this tiny impact will do 350+ ft lbs. Dayam.

[FAMOUSSLICKRICK]

Hi my friend Tim, awesome review as always sir. You are a true professional and legend in this power tool game. Keep up the awesome work you do for all of us fans of yours.
🇺🇸😎🇺🇸

Great video.
I like the way you test the impact wrench showing it’s strength and weakness with your setup.
I would buy this compact impact wrench and try it on my vehicles after watching your video.
I like the compact size and brushless feature.
Watching this video, looks like it would take off lug nuts torqued from 100-150 ft/lbs.
Also should be able to break free the two bolts on the front end struts, sway bar link nuts and maybe even the axle nut on compacts, sedans and small SUV’s.

[boosted._sky]

LET'S GO TJ!!!🏁
Should handle up to 375 lb/ft...no problem

[georgeferlazzo]

Hello again Tim
Thank you for another Great Video 👍

[El_Diablo_LI]

Great video as always Tim. I too love the new timer graphic that you've added to your videos.

I wonder if this compact impact tool would have removed that 400 ft/pd nut easier if you were using the 6 ah HP battery?

I just got a few of those 6 ah batteries with the recent Ryobi Days sales at HD so I almost feel like that battery is probably pretty common now among Ryobi tool owners.

It's possible the 6 ah battery could have allowed this tool to go even higher.

Interestingly enough, the 6 ah batteries are so similar in size and weight to the 4 ah batteries, it's my new standard for all my Ryobi tools that might benefit from the higher amperage being available.

Kind of a missed opportunity to see if there was a difference, but I'm sure our friends over at TTC will try both batteries for us (wink wink).

[mihaiserbanescu]

If it can do 400 ft lbs, I'm not sure there is any lug nut on any passenger car/van that it can't take off. I ordered one because I have an NA Miata and I'm tired of wasting time with manual wrenches, hopefully it will help me unde bolts and nuts easier.
