Which is a bit like chiming in on a discussion about Stanley knives and suggesting that everyone go out and buy Excalibur. No doubt the Hilti TE drills are great, but there is no way you can say that they represent good value for money for the average user.

The best value for money at the moment would probably be the new Bosch 36volt Li-Ion unit. It's retailiing for around a grand with two batteries. Considering I paid that about 7 years ago for a 24volt drill... All of the good quality 24volt+ rotary hammer drills are going to set you back something in the region of $1000. That's a lot of money to spend on something unless you're *really* going to need to use it.
