There does appear to be new groups of users for these. Some keep breaking
'em, some don't! Maybe I'm not pushing it hard enough!

There does seem to be a difference in the quality that a casual DIYer
would not notice I am almost sure. The point being that if they are
inadequate they are refundable in the UK under trades description laws.

Since the original poster has a decent 30 V cordless, the cheap SDS
mains with a trip switch is the way to go. Drilling into a lintle is not
a particularly good idea by the way. Whils a few self tappers into a
steel one is not going to do much harm, going through the rebar in a
concrete one is a NO! NO!.

Use gripfill or a similar mastic adhesive to stick a strip of baton
along a lintle. Hang what you need to from the batton.

I have a makita SDS that I bought second hand and rarely use. I imagine
I'd manage with a cheapo one if they made one in 110 v. I've no
experience to speak of.

All the plumbers and the electrician on the site where I am at the
moment, use Bosch cordless SDSs. They give them hard use and often.
