In hospital and EMS environments, where the useful life of a
defibrillator's disposable battery can be consumed in a relatively short
period of time, the Rechargeable Battery (M3848A) provides a
cost-effective option for frequent-use applications, such as
back-to-back sudden cardiac arrest responses and monitoring patients
during transport.
This Lithium-Ion rechargeable battery is fully charged using the
charger in just 3 hours to provide 100 shocks (typical) or 5 hours
(typical) of ECG display time. The "fuel gauge" on the FR2+ displays the
battery's remaining power. Under normal conditions, the Rechargeable
Battery withstands 300 charge-discharge cycles or 2.5.years of use.
