Ryobi ONE+ 18V 2-Tool Combo Kit vs Ryobi 18V ONE+ HP 2-Tool Combo Kit

Buy the HP Brushless kit if you want the better tools: brushless motors last longer, the impact driver is shorter and lighter, and owners report years of use. Buy the standard ONE+ kit if you want the higher raw torque figures on paper and a lower entry into the 300-plus tool ONE+ platform. Both run on the same 18V batteries, so the platform decision is the same either way.

• Choose the RYOBI ONE+ 18V 2-Tool Combo Kit if you want the strongest torque numbers in this pair and the simplest, proven brushed setup for occasional DIY work.
• Choose the 18V ONE+ HP Brushless 2-Tool Combo Kit if you want longer motor life, a more compact impact driver and better overhead and tight-space handling.
