The Flasher! is an internal defibrillator tester that is totally sealed, can be sterilized, and is suitable for use during open heart procedures. The Flasher can test an internal defibrillator before, during, and after surgery.
The Flasher requires no adjustment, can be sterilized using ETO gas, STERRAD*, or STERIS* systems and kept in the O.R. or Cath. Lab until internal defibrillation may be needed, then remove from the sterile package and you're ready to test.
Any defibrillator can be tested by placing the paddles or spoons onto the two stainless electrodes then discharging the defibrillator. The spot will flash, showing the defibrillator functioned properly.

Reusable
Clean the unit and sterilize, it's ready to use again
Simple
No calibration steps or adjustments required, just open the sterile package and use
Standard
A 50 ohm industry standard load is presented to the defibrillator. The Flasher will test internal defibrillator energy from 5 to 50 Joules
Display
Function is indicated by a sealed internal neon lamp flashing upon defibrillator discharge
Specifications
3.6" diameter by 1.2" high (92mm x 31mm)
Indicates 5 to 50 Joules
Made of a sterilizable epoxy resin, stainless steel contacts, neon lamp sealed inside, internal 50 ohm load
Epoxy resin is now used rather than a polymer resin plastic making it much more resilient to dropping and handling
