J4D wroteI suggest you order them online. Defibrillators are common, no ? They wont really miss it. those Chinese batteries will die quickly. but they would surely work for a limited amount of time .
Not all defibrillators work with the same type of batteries, or current rating for that matter, but one thing I'm pretty sure of is that about 85% of them operate on Chinese batteries. They will die quick (no doubt about that), but it doesn't matter since whether they die or not they
have to be changed every 4 years otherwise it gets banned by the ISO board to be used. Plus, this forces hospitals to buy stuff from our company, is that a bad thing? ;)
Ordering them online means they will arrive in a month or so; defibrillators cannot be held back that long a period of time. They're the soul of any hospital, and every department should have one on standby in case of "Code Blue" on their floor.
I'm constructing the battery from a set of NiMH SC 25000 mAh batteries, run the defibrillator PM tests with a defi tester, and verify whether the defibrillator is fit to be used or not. If so, then yahoo. If not, I'll go with the size C batteries and wedge them somehow into the machine (even if I had to construct an external chamber onto the machine).
