One battery did:
6.5" Circular saw- 17 2x4 cuts.
3/4 impact - Front brakes on a CRV (all bars at the end)
1/2 impact - entire lift kit on a Tundra (dropped 1 bar)
Inflator - haven't charged it all summer.
LED light - last the entire job.
30 degree Framing nailer - would not power.

That basically has no bearing on this size battery. I don't think they make the hp battery (just better cells, but not these new ones for the edge) in this size, smallest is 2ah, and that's pushing it imo. The battery is so small, it will discharge completely before it gets too hot in demanding tools. Charging same thing, it won't heat up enough even rapidly charging it before it's full (I personally recommend against rapid chargers though, that will hurt battery longevity no matter what).
They will not stop selling HP and Lithium+ (these) when the edge comes out. They will definetely charge you 25% more for hp and 50% more for edge. If you buy edge in this size, you are just throwing away cash, buy you do you if you truly think it gives you that 'edge' for the 5 mins this will last in your high demand tool.
For everyone else, these are great for tools you don't want to be heavy. I have shoved them in the recip just because I was doing a single quick cut. Otherwise they are perfect for the flash light, and I always keep one ready to go in the car. Lanterns and phone chargers are good uses as well. I mean, why buy a power bank, when this will outlast it by far and your utilizing your tool system.
I will say the one comment giving run times, while helpful, is misleading on the inflator. I keep a 4ah on the inflator in my trunk with the flashlight and usb adapter. I would not expect this 1.5 to make it through more than one flat tire on a small car. To bring it back, all those I mentioned I know you will not se any benefit from using a HP or Edge battery on them. Definetely skip them unless you are getting serious and want to give your ryobi tool the best chance it has to do the job you want. The only close example would be they do help using the circular saw cut through concrete. Doing that on a battery is kinda crazy though. You will need many larger ones, when a cheap corded saw will run all day without complaint. No need to buy $450 for the top tier brushless circular and batteries, when the $25 corded at harbor freight can run even longer. Totally spend the money on a better, proper concrete, blade!

I don't even know why Ryobi make 1.5Ah batteries, except that they probably save some pennies for bundle offers.
