I been using a similar 36v bosch cordless SDS and its great for getting clips on the wall etc but even on a full charge it wont go through a standard wall for a condense drain or similar, it either runs out of charge or overheats.

EDIT: oh hang on, just seen that its a 240v (link dont work, I read the text and saw the 24) - it will be fine, I use a similar hitachi up to 157 or whatever it is core drill

Which one do you have as there's two versions one is s compact version and the other is the full size version

If you have the full size version (36v) your talking out your bum as I have one and it will do 28mm easy no pilot

even used it to core a 4 inch hole through brick

well it wouldn't be unusual for me to talk out of my bum I suppose

all I do know is going through a brick/breeze wall wasn't possible, it ran out and I had to get the corded drill from the van.
no idea which model it is, it cost £350
