Batteries designed for use as a power source in external defibrillators. These batteries typically consist of high storage capacity and high-efficiency cells; they are usually rechargeable (e.g., sealed nickel-cadmium, lead acid), although disposable nonrechargeable batteries (e.g., lithium) are sometimes used. Most external defibrillator batteries are used in portable defibrillators or to ensure that equipment is serviceable if there is a failure of the main power supply.
