The Straight-Shooter Take
When you're working 800 feet away from the barn repairing a pipe fence, running five 100-foot extension cords causes devastating voltage drop that burns out saw motors. And hauling a 75-pound screaming gas generator in the back of the Ridgeline ruins the peace of the pasture.
This Ryobi 40V power station holds up to four 40V batteries, delivering 1,800 running watts and 3,000 starting watts of clean pure sine wave AC electricity.
Where It Earns Its Keep
- Clean Pure Sine Wave Power: Safe for sensitive electronics, laptops, starlink antennas, and brushless battery chargers without voltage spikes.
- Parallel 4-Battery Hot Swap: Pulls power sequentially or simultaneously from all 4 ports, and doubles as an onboard sequential charger when plugged into a wall outlet.
- Zero Noise, Zero Fumes: Can be run safely inside the pole barn, closed workshop, or truck cab during a Texas thunderstorm power outage.
The Annoyance
- At 23 lbs bare, loading it with four 6.0Ah batteries brings the total carry weight to around 35 lbs. Carry it with both hands using the dual tubular steel roll bars.
