With its 18V battery, the R18JS-0 should be ideal for personal projects that involve different materials in addition to wood. And although it weighs 2 kg, this extra weight is beneficial because it’ll dampen the cutting vibration, allowing you to finish your projects faster than before.
Like most cordless jigsaws, Ryobi ships the R18JS-0 as “body only”, meaning that you have to pay more for the battery and charger. But the good thing here is that the ONE+ battery system is universal.
In other words, if you already own the ONE+ drill, ONE+ circular saw, or any other tool from the ONE+ lineup, you can buy only one battery and use it for all of your tools. How’s that for convenience!
