A genuine, long-life lithium manganese dioxide battery built for the Philips HeartStart OnSite, FRx, and Home (HS1) AEDs. Rated for 4 years of standby life once installed, a minimum of 200 shocks or 4 hours of continuous operating time, and a 5-year shelf life before installation.
The Philips M5070A AED Replacement Battery is a long-lasting lithium battery for the Philips HeartStart OnSite, FRx, and Home (HS1) AEDs. It provides up to 4 years of standby life and a minimum of 200 shocks, keeping your defibrillator ready for sudden cardiac arrest. Philips also recommends keeping a fully charged spare battery on hand with your AED to ensure uninterrupted readiness.
Once installed, this battery powers your AED's automatic daily self-tests without significant power drain, and the AED's status indicator, along with audible alerts, will let you know if the battery ever runs low.
Compatible with the Philips HeartStart OnSite (M5066A, M5067A, M5068A), HeartStart FRx (861304), and HeartStart Home (HS1) AEDs.
Other Philips HeartStart models, such as the FR3 or FR2 series, use different batteries. Confirm your AED model before ordering.
Pair this battery with the correct HeartStart OnSite/FRx electrode pads so both consumables land on the same maintenance schedule.
This listing does not include a Philips HeartStart AED unit (it is a consumable replacement for existing AED owners) or HeartStart electrode pads (sold separately). Pads and batteries replace on different schedules, so check both when planning your AED's next maintenance cycle. Call Total AEDs at (855) 286-6384 to build a complete replacement bundle.
Some third-party sellers offer generic or compatible batteries for HeartStart AEDs at a lower upfront cost. Here's how they compare to the genuine M5070A battery.
Order this M5070A battery when: you want a genuine Philips battery engineered specifically for the HeartStart OnSite, FRx, or Home AED, with a manufacturer-rated 4-year standby life.
Think twice before choosing a generic alternative: AEDs are life-saving medical devices, and a battery not engineered for your specific model can affect fit, daily self-test accuracy, and your device's readiness when it matters most. Call Total AEDs at (855) 286-6384 if you have questions about compatibility.
Replacing the battery in your HeartStart OnSite, FRx, or HS1 AED is a quick, tool-free process:
Philips recommends keeping a fully charged spare battery stored with your AED, so your device stays ready even if the installed battery ever needs an unplanned replacement.
Once installed, this battery is rated for 4 years of standby life, with a minimum of 200 shocks or 4 hours of continuous operating time. Before installation, it carries a 5-year shelf life from the date of manufacture.
No. The M5070A is a non-rechargeable lithium manganese dioxide battery, designed as a single-use replacement for your HeartStart OnSite, FRx, or Home AED.
Check the manufacture date printed on the battery label against its 5-year shelf-life rating if it hasn't been installed yet, or track the install-by date and 4-year standby life once it's in the AED. Your AED's status indicator and audible alerts will also let you know if the battery needs replacing.
We recommend using only the genuine Philips M5070A battery in your HeartStart AED. Generic or aftermarket batteries aren't engineered or tested by Philips for this device and may affect fit or the accuracy of the AED's daily self-tests.
Lay the AED face down, lift the release tab, and remove the old battery. Insert the new M5070A battery until it clicks securely into place, then allow the AED to run its automatic self-test and confirm the green status light flashes.
The M5070A's safety data sheet confirms it's a lithium manganese dioxide battery that ships as UN3090 "Lithium Metal Batteries" under Hazard Class 9. Call Total AEDs at (855) 286-6384 if you need a copy of the current safety data sheet for your records.
The genuine M5070A battery is compatible with the following Philips HeartStart AEDs:
Models M5066A, M5067A, and M5068A.
HeartStart FRx (model 861304) and HeartStart Home (HS1).
This battery also covers the alternate part numbers 0582-0330 and 989803121381. If your existing battery or documentation shows a different part number, or you're not sure which HeartStart model you have, call Total AEDs at (855) 286-6384 and we'll confirm the correct battery for your device.
