While $100 for 24aH worth of batteries is a good deal, the stand alone unit with no batteries for $650 seems really overpriced.

You'd have to be heavily into Ryobi econ to buy one of these. I can't see spending that kind of money on a device that is reliant on you having a ton of charged ryobi batteries just laying around. Keeping all these batteries laying around at 100% state of charge is bad for them.

Even if someone had the batteries, this thing also wouldn't hold up under any type of extended power outage. It's recharge ability in the middle of an emergency is basically nil.

Talk about a product looking for a customer…
it's a nice garage decoration.

Then the question is "What do I do when this battery runs out of power"?
It's called solar charging… the sun never seems to run out of rays. But then again I always but in multiples because 2 is 1 and 1 is none!

I just don't see a point for generators like this other than camping? Tools are basically all battery operated now so what's the need for this
I use a battery backup for pellet stove heater in the mountains for snow storm outages. And camping...

This concept had so much potential. 60W solar input is a joke.
Yep, and the 40v has no solar input at all. 60W for 1200WH means it would take 20 hours to recharge assuming you have somewhere that can provide sunlight for 20 hours ...

Assuming you can get 60W for about 8 hr a day, you're really only good for 480WH at most with this thing.

I have a little 1000w generator for that. Cut the wire going to the furnace and put plugs on either end. If the power is out, you can just unplug the furnace from your service and plug it into an extension cord. Don't have to worry about backfeeding.

I keep saying it, but an all-in-one solution is both more expensive, and not tailored to YOUR needs.

Get the inverter separate from the battery. If either fails, the whole thing doesn't have to be thrown out.

In case anyone is interested, it's the PBP007 batteries, which are HP.

Here's the Ryobi solar panel shown: https://www.homedepot.com/p/RYOBI.../326481021

And here's a higher wattage, more expensive, but more cost effective (3x+ watts, 2x price) panel: https://www.homedepot.com/p/YOSHI.../326828505
That second one doesn't have any reviews and has no specs/description/image of how to connect to it.

And maintenance every few month. Just learn that lesson. My 1 yr old generator no longer running because apparently I leave the gas in there for too long. Now it a $800 space waster until I get it fix

The good solution for my use case is the product listed in the OP - that's my point. This is made for people that own a large number of Ryobi batteries and want to put them to use as a means of providing fairly high output AC power. You shouldn't compare your setup, where you use the 18V batteries to charge your standalone power station, with this where the batteries are the power source. Your setup is nice, and it serves your purpose, but it's not the same as this product.
Your argument is that this product is better for your use case because you can swap out a bunch of batteries to maintain a 1800 watt output as long as you have batteries, but at 6ah each battery only holds 108wh.. if you have all 8 batteries that's a capacity of 864wh.. You're going to have to swap out all 8 batteries every 28 minutes and 48 seconds that you run that 1800w load. I am of course making the assumption that all of your batteries are 6ah and not 4ah or less, and you can use 100% of that power and not something like 85%.

Meanwhile EcoFlow and Bluetti and others make products that can run that load for hours with no swapping. You can even get inexpensive lifepo4 batteries and an all in one inverter and charger for less than this deal..

I'm a fan of Ryobi, but these power stations are very overpriced by at least 2-3x and make no sense at this price point even if you're heavily invested in the batteries. They even make a unit more like the EcoFlow and Bluetti ones with a built in battery and it's also more expensive than theirs.
