Technology & Features
The AED is low maintenance and performs daily self tests to ensure its functionality and indicates it is in working order with an indication light.
The design of the Defibtech Lifeline is clean, lightweight, and yet rugged and durable. The AED is protected by rubberized edges that meet military grade standards, and has no lid or case to fumble with in an emergency. This makes the AED a great choice for those traveling with an AED or for public locations where the AED needs to be accessed quickly.
When turned on the AED will guide the user through application of pads to read the victim’s heart rhythm and then will shock if necessary. Next, the AED will give guidance on performing CPR alongside a metronome to set the optimal pace of CPR compressions.

Where can I get a spare battery for the Defibtech Lifeline AED?
The Defibtech Lifeline requires only one Defibtech Lifeline battery. This battery lasts up to five years.
