Yesterday a Ryobi miter saw was FP at $99. I remember getting that saw as just One of two Free tools included a $150 bundle, a couple years ago.

Note the phrase UP TO for 4x runtime and 30% power. For the runtime, you can't get a 'standard' lithium battery in a capacity over 4AH. Anything larger is a HP or High performance battery. The largest they have is 9AH https://www.homedepot.c
The 30% more power will vary by tool and literally by battery. Lot's of people says their brushless tools do perform better, but we have no idea what they are comparing them too. I mean is it a 1.2ah they had from a older tool, came with a special buy like my old brushless? They probably are not buying these and regular 4AH lithium batteries when they compare. Regardless the performance gain is from the tool drawing more power because the HP cells are more robust and specced for that that kind of draw, where your regular batteries might overload and trip. Lots of videos and posts about the battery lights just blinking and how to reset them. I know lots of 'Brushless only' fans will contest all this, but you can literally see negligable difference with their brand new 1/2 brushless impact on the torque test channel until they go for the super expensive 9AH HP (old HP, not High Performance) battery.
here is the original video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8E_QYda
The 'Runs cooler' is literally where the extra power is available from. Smaller packs are connected in serial and larger packs are in Parallel. You can look up loads of info on this, but essentially serial has all cells connected in a row and all draw comes from all cells. Parallel has the cells seperated into two and connected together from there so half the draw comes from half the cells. Less draw, less heat, more power can be produced.
Finally loads of the Brushless tools come with standard Lithium batteries in their bundles. If you ask Ryobi about getting extra performance with the HP line, they will say it depends on the tool. For instance the brushless 16inch lawn mower comes with 2x 4ah lithium batteries, using HP won't increase performance per Ryobi. If you checked the videos I linked you will see you are not always getting 30% power increase even when using HP batteries on tools that are designed to draw more power.
I am in the Ryobi system because I hate having to have different batteries and them dying in storage just because I did not use them. The massive differences with all these compatible batteries is slightly maddening, but it's better than the alternative where I can't use a battery because I don't need that tool that day. My advice is to use your batteries and not focus much on Lithium, Lithium+, HP, or High Performance labels. When in doubt of performance always use at least a 4AH battery so you are using a parallel connected pack of cells. If you buy HP batteries, don't overdo it. You totally don't need HP or High performance to run a fan, light, and I truly doubt the gains reported on thing's like a drill since they are all seat of your pants reports. People get the same gains after an oil change regardless if the shop actually did anything. Sure the 9AH has the gains you seek, but who the heck is going to use that if they think they get the same performance from a smaller, cheaper, and easier to manage 4AH in everyday use?
Oh and to those who say they only run brushless, great, have you ever tried a standard 4AH Lithium though? The main response I get is they don't bother because they want the extra power from HP. If it's <10% why would you pay over 30% more? I really think Ryobi just shot themselves in the foot on all this since the big claim to fame is all batteries work with all tools. People buy into it though.
Li-Ion 18650 cells come in various capacities, like 1300mAh or 2600mAh. They are (always) connected five in series to produce 18V (5x3.6V) and 1300mAh (or 2600). Or in order to double the capacity - five parallel doubles in series (the parallel connection adds the capacities).
The 18650 cells have various discharge rating, like 5C (eg. a 1300mAh cell can be discharged at 5x1.3A=6.5A) or 40C, meaning they can deliver more current, hence the "HP".
