Avive Connect AED

vs.

Defibtech Lifeline/Lifeline AUTO

Avive’s Connect AED is the newest defibrillator to hit the market, released in 2023, and falls on the low to middle end of the cost spectrum. At 2.1lbs, it is the smallest, lightest FDA approved AED with on the fly bilingual capabilities and a child button that eliminates the need for separate pads or a pediatric key. Fully connected to Wifi, Bluetooth, and GPS, it is the first and only AED to offer full, bidirectional integration with 911 call centers. Its software can be updated remotely and it is also the first device to display a female chest in the on-screen graphic instructions.

Defibtech introduced the Lifeline AED in 2002 with a simple display and cost effective price point. It is a single language semi-automatic AED that was designed with a built-in handle to easily carry the 4.2lb device. For an additional price, the device can be purchased in a fully automatic version.
