The Future of Portable Defibrillators: Introducing the HeartHero Elliot AED
A New Generation of AEDs has arrived
When it comes to sudden cardiac arrest, every second matters.
Without immediate treatment, survival rates decrease rapidly - which is why having access to a defibrillator (AED) nearby can make all the difference.
Introducing the HeartHero Elliot AED - a new generation of portable, easy-to-use, and connected defibrillators designed for real-world use.
Unlike traditional AEDs that are often bulky or intimidating, the Elliot has been created with simplicity and accessibility in mind.
No expensive battery packs - Elliot takes standard batteries, available from supermarkets!
It’s compact enough to store in a drawer, carry in a bag, or install in a workplace - while still delivering the life-saving performance expected from a professional-grade device.
Why portable AEDs are becoming essential in Australia
Sudden cardiac arrest doesn’t just happen in hospitals - it happens in homes, workplaces, sporting fields, and public spaces across Australia.
That’s why more Australians are choosing to invest in portable AEDs that can be kept close and used immediately when needed.
Key reasons portable AEDs are growing in demand:
• Faster response times before emergency services arrive
• Increased survival rates with early defibrillation
• Greater accessibility in remote or regional areas
• Peace of mind for families, staff, and communities.
At just 0.68kg, the HeartHero Elliot is designed to go wherever it’s needed most - making it ideal for:
• Homes and families
• Small businesses and offices
• Trades and mobile workers
• Schools and childcare centres
• Sporting clubs
• Travel, caravans, and outdoor adventures.
Designed for real people - not just professionals
One of the biggest barriers to using an AED is fear - fear of doing something wrong.
The HeartHero Elliot removes that completely.
It has been designed so that anyone can use it, even with no prior training.
Simple, Guided Operation
• Clear voice prompts guide you step-by-step
• Visual icons show exactly what to do
• Built-in CPR metronome helps maintain the correct rhythm
• Fully automatic shock delivery (no decision required)
As soon as the device is activated, it begins guiding the rescuer through the entire process - from pad placement to CPR and shock delivery.
This “user-first” design ensures that help can be given quickly, confidently, and correctly.
Smart AED technology: Always ready when you need it
The HeartHero Elliot isn’t just portable - it’s smart.
With integrated connectivity and app support, this AED brings a whole new level of awareness and control.
Key Smart Features

• Access event data, ECG reports, and usage history
• Track device location and readiness
• Share access with team members or family.
The device connects via Bluetooth and LTE (4G wireless broadband technology), allowing you to monitor it anytime from your phone.
For businesses, this is especially powerful - enabling AED fleet management without manual checks.
Performance you can rely on in an emergency
While the design is simple, the technology behind it is highly advanced.
The HeartHero Elliot delivers:
• 150 joules for adult patients
• 50 joules in child mode
• Biphasic waveform technology for effective defibrillation
• Reliable operation across a wide range of environments
It’s built to perform in:
• Temperatures from -20°C to 50°C
• Dusty, wet, and outdoor conditions

With pre-connected pads and a one-step activation handle, the device is ready to go instantly - no setup required.
Low Maintenance, High Confidence
One of the biggest challenges with AED ownership is ongoing maintenance.
The HeartHero Elliot simplifies this completely.
Built-In Readiness Features
• Daily automatic self-checks
• Monthly full system tests

This means you don’t have to second guess whether your AED is working - you’ll always know.
Where should you keep a portable AED?
One of the biggest advantages of a device like the Elliot is flexibility.
Because it’s lightweight and compact, it can be placed in locations where traditional AEDs often aren’t.
Recommended Locations
• Kitchen or living area (for home use)
• Office reception or staff room
• Work vehicles or tradie vans
• Sporting kits or first aid bags
• Schools and childcare facilities
• Caravan, boat, or travel bag.
The key is simple: keep it somewhere accessible and visible.
