The stock battery has more watt hours at the moment. 12v x 12 Ah = 144 Wh.
My 18v Ryobi battery is 4 Ah = 72 Wh.
Moar Power! Less energy.
I'm mulling over justifying the purchase of a higher capacity Ryobi battery, or simply wiring 2 batteries in parallel, or just storing extra batteries on the Jeep to swap out as needed, or building a custom 18v 7Ah battery using those cheep LiFePO4 cells I've got. The simplest would just be 2 Ryobi batteries in parallel. 2x 4Ah batteries would deliver equivalent energy as the stock battery.
