Overview

Measuring 14 x 6 x 4 inches and running on an 18 volt battery, the Ryobi PBLHM101B is rated to a 21000 RPM top speed, a compact footprint suited to one-handed handheld use.

Cordless 18V power ties this tool to Ryobi's battery platform, and the listed 21000 RPM speed is well above what a typical drill runs, so confirm the tool matches your intended task before buying. Battery and charger inclusion are not stated.

Who it's for

Users who already run Ryobi 18V batteries and need a compact, high-speed cordless tool. Confirm the intended use against the 21000 RPM spec first, since that speed suits fast-spinning tasks over slow, high-torque drilling.

Performance notes

The 21000 RPM top speed points to fast-spinning tasks rather than slow, high-torque drilling. Cordless 18V power removes the cord but ties runtime to whatever battery is paired with it, and that capacity is not listed here.
