Ryobi's 40V cordless battery topper LED work light is a bright, portable work light that also doubles as a lantern for camping or remodel use. It has a weighted battery base, runs a long time on a 4Ah pack, and is handy enough to become a go to light for some setups. The main catch is ecosystem fit, since it uses the 40V battery shape and is not compatible with ONE plus batteries. Battery and charger costs can also outweigh the light itself, and the listed price appears to have risen in some regions.

Common Questions (5)

  • It is described as plenty bright and a go-to work light, though one comment questions whether the listed 1000 lumens is low. The wide-area illumination is part of the appeal compared with smaller pivoting project lights.

  • No. It uses Ryobi's 40V battery shape, so ONE+ 18V batteries do not fit and it is not part of the ONE+ ecosystem. You need a 40V battery to use it.

  • A 4Ah 40V battery can reportedly power it for a weekend of camping, making it usable as a lantern replacement without bringing a charger. That suggests solid runtime for intermittent light use.

  • Yes. The battery provides a nice weighted base, but the base is also described as bulky for the light's size and a clamp would be useful.

  • Yes, compatible third-party 40V batteries are reported to work, including some sold on Temu and Amazon. Their quality and stated capacity can be inconsistent, but they are much cheaper than official Ryobi batteries.

Thease are awesome. You can take one camping for a weekend on a 4ah battery and use it instead of a lantern and not need to bring a battery charger
Thanks, just the sort of experiential info I was looking for, and my possible use case exactly.

Made the same mistake, still have 2 fans and 2 lights and no batteries since I have the 40v light and fan haven't pulled the plug in buying the batteries and charger for these. They seem to never go on sale
Yeah, they rarely go on sale. I think most of us just get them with tools - snow blower, string trimmer, pole saw, power cleaner, and leaf blower, in my case. Ryobi's 40V outdoor tools are a lot more capable than 18V ONE+, BTW. There are compatible third party 40V batteries on sites like Temu and even Amazon though. I'm sure the quality is hit or miss and some of them definitely misstate the capacity, but I've heard from a few people that they work okay, and they're WAY cheaper.

Any deal for the 40v battery? I got the $10 fan and light from the last year sale, but I don't have any 40v battery. Lol
If you just want one for a light you won't like the cost - they never get very cheap. But for that, it might be worth considering a generic knockoff. They're still more than the cost of the light, but much cheaper than the official Ryobi batteries.

HD page is working again. Local store had one fan and one light in stock, so I ordered both for pickup.
