Man I don't how Ryobi does it
You can get a blue tooth compatible radio for $39 and a whole kit (charger/battery) for like $10 more
Just about half the price of the smallest radio's Dewalt, Milwaukee, Bosch or Makita have and even less than most stand alone speakers.
Milwaukee's blue tooth radio setup is expensive, close to $200 but is also a charger unit and is really big too! Bosch, and Dewalt and have similar setups and prices on radio/chargers. I don't know if Makita has a charger combo?? and think with the Dewalt stuff you need to buy a separate blue tooth adapter? (they sell their own unit).
Most radios are sold as just bare tool options if bought separate from a package deal so usually come without batteries and chargers. So if you don't already have what you need from a certain manufacturer that would add considerably to the price
I did see a Porter Cable unit with Blue tooth on Amazon for less than $100 (just a bare tool unit)
