Thanks All.

On the matter of the power, the potential difficulty in using a 3.5+KW machine with a regular extension lead was my main concern. If a 1.7KW is up to the job of dealing with most DIY breaking tasks, then I will probably stick with that.

With regard SDS, SDS Max etc.- yes, I think I used the wrong term. It's a hex shank breaker that I'm after.

As John says, weight is a problem if you were attacking a substantial
wall or the side of a big concrete block, but you could suspend it from
a tripod or A frame. For breaking a slab, you are relying on the weight
and don't have to support it yourself.
