I’ve been testing the Ryobi OBC1820B 18V ONE+ Brush Cutter to see whether an 18V battery tool can genuinely replace petrol for normal garden and overgrowth clearing jobs.

In this video I cover:

* real world cutting performance
* grass trimming vs metal blade use
* battery runtime expectations
* comfort and ergonomics
* noise and convenience
* who this tool is actually for
* whether Ryobi ONE+ makes sense for garden tools

The OBC1820B sits somewhere between a normal grass trimmer and a proper brush cutter, so after using it for a while, here are my honest thoughts.

If you’re interested in making better decisions about technology, tools, and home upgrades, you’re in the right place.
