I've just killed my second makita 2kg sds drill in two years. I'm not using it as a breaker, just chopping in boxes and light chasing (I have a chaser), you know, just the usual abuse a drill would get on site. I'm starting to think that a 2 kg sds isn't man enough.
What does everyone else...
Looking for my first SDS for chasing out etc and looking for some advice. Definitely going corded route, domestic stuff with capability for handling brick, concrete and stone. First query is how much difference does the kg make? ie some say 2kg, 3kg 4kg and even 5kg. I am guessing each is a step...
