BHC 18 use SDS Chisel?

Quit trying to make a ballerina into a football player, and go buy a Hilti TE-30AVR. Or rent one when you occasionally need some grunt. Mine's 17 years old now, it's been absolutely tortured - but it still works as well as the day I bought it. My local Hilti rep told me that in my application, a service life of 20 years plus is normal - he said that he'd be disappointed if it needed major overhaul any time before year #25.

And it has a set of 5 different chisels. Horses for courses.
 
Thanks a lot, [member=22067]mrB[/member] Good to know there's no reason buying the adapter. It's a pity.

Regarding what [member=75780]woodbutcherbower[/member] says: I guess you're missing the point of the Festool BHC 18. It's a lightweight battery tool, perfect for annoying locations where you don't want to bring heavy equipment, or don't like to lift it.
The BHC is like a Makita DHR242Z 18V (i presume, don't own both (yet)), but the Festool lacks the chiselling unfortunately.
Some days ago I had to carve out just a few joints in a chimney, for that situation I needed to bring electricity all the way, and it was a pretty annnoying job with the too heavy drillhammer. I would have loved a tiny green ballerina, and would have ordered it if chiselling was possible.
If only there was an adapter so I could use a Makita DHR242Z (or something alike) with a festool battery. I don't want different battery-systems.
