In 2015, Cardiac Science launched the Powerheart G5 AED, a rugged military grade device featuring optional CPR feedback pads and a text-only display screen. The G5 became the first AED with bilingual on-the-fly capabilities, and, as a result, falls in the middle end of the cost spectrum. The Powerheart G5 is smaller and lighter than the previous G3 generations. Note: In 2019, ZOLL Medical Corporation acquired Cardiac Science, therefore the Cardiac Science brand now falls under the ZOLL umbrella.
