LIFEPAK CR2 vs HeartHero Elliot: Which Defibrillator Suits Your Site?
Two defibrillators from the same paramedic-led supplier. The right one for your organisation depends on CPR technology, connectivity needs and how many devices you manage.
Integrity Health & Safety is an Indigenous-owned, paramedic-led supplier and authorised distributor of both LIFEPAK and HeartHero products. Supply Nation certified, appointed to South Australia's Whole of Government Defibrillator Panel, and members of the Australian Sudden Cardiac Arrest Alliance.
Both the LIFEPAK CR2 Cellular and the HeartHero Elliot are Publicly Accessible Defibrillators (PADs) - built for bystander use without clinical training. The CR2 adds cprINSIGHT rhythm analysis during CPR and LIFELINKcentral fleet monitoring. Every purchase supports our Social Impact Commitment: scholarships for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander nurses.
As Supply Nation certified members of the Australian Sudden Cardiac Arrest Alliance, we advise government, enterprise and community buyers across Australia. We stock both the LIFEPAK CR2 and the HeartHero Elliot because different sites need different devices. Our job is to recommend the right one for you.
The Two AEDs We Are Comparing
Both are available from Integrity Health & Safety with free shipping and paramedic-led support. They are built for different operational contexts. The product cards below give you the key facts on each; the sections further down explain when one makes more sense than the other.
HeartHero Elliot Fully Automatic Defibrillator
$1,395.00
The lightest fully automatic AED available at 680 g. IP66 rated and operable between -20 and 50 degrees C, it suits personal, household and vehicle use. Bluetooth and LTE monitoring via the HeartHero App. Up to 20 shocks per battery set. Six-year warranty.
A fully automatic AED with cprINSIGHT technology that analyses heart rhythm during chest compressions, eliminating the need to pause CPR for analysis. ClearVoice automatically adjusts volume to background noise levels. Cellular and Wi-Fi connected. LIFELINKcentral fleet management. Eight-year warranty.
Why the choice between LIFEPAK vs Elliot defibrillators matters
Australia's 25,000 annual sudden cardiac arrests demand defibrillators that work at scale. The LIFEPAK CR2 Cellular excels in enterprise fleet management and sophisticated arrhythmia analysis, while the HeartHero Elliot delivers rapid single-shock capability with cloud connectivity.
Select either defibrillator from Integrity Health & Safety and get:
Two capable AEDs, different CPR analysis technology
The HeartHero Elliot uses a built-in metronome to guide CPR compression rate. The LIFEPAK CR2's cprINSIGHT technology analyses heart rhythm during compressions, so CPR does not need to stop for analysis. If the rhythm is non-shockable, pauses are eliminated entirely. More CPR time means better blood circulation and improved survival odds.
Different connectivity and fleet management capabilities
The HeartHero Elliot monitors readiness through the HeartHero App via Bluetooth and LTE. The LIFEPAK CR2 Cellular connects to LIFELINKcentral via 4G and Wi-Fi, providing automated fleet management across multiple devices - battery and pad status, geolocation tracking, expiry alerts and real-time notifications - all from a single platform. Data is stored securely in Australia.
Confidence for any rescuer, whatever their experience
Both devices guide any bystander through the rescue process. The HeartHero Elliot uses voice prompts and a built-in metronome. The LIFEPAK CR2 adds ClearVoice technology, which automatically adjusts voice prompt volume based on ambient noise - particularly useful in noisy environments like factories, gyms or sporting facilities where instructions may otherwise be difficult to hear.
Compliance support
From 1 January 2026, South Australian private sector workplaces must have a defibrillator. Both the LIFEPAK CR2 Cellular and the HeartHero Elliot are TGA listed and meet the requirement. For multi-site organisations, LIFELINKcentral automates readiness documentation. Our team can advise on site assessment and compliance records.
Competitive Pricing
The HeartHero Elliot is $1,395 with free shipping and a 6-year warranty. The LIFEPAK CR2 Cellular is $2,895 with free shipping and an 8-year warranty. LIFELINKcentral reduces the labour cost of fleet management, which for organisations managing multiple AEDs can offset the higher purchase price over the warranty period.
Which should you choose: LIFEPAK CR2 Cellular or HeartHero Elliot?
Ask yourself three questions. Do you manage more than a handful of AEDs and need automated readiness monitoring across sites? The CR2 Cellular with LIFELINKcentral is built for that. Do you need rhythm analysis to continue during CPR rather than stopping it? The CR2's cprINSIGHT handles that. Or do you need a lighter unit for personal carry, a vehicle or a household? The Elliot fits that role. Many organisations use the CR2 at fixed sites and the Elliot for mobile and personal use.
HeartHero Elliot - 680 g, fully automatic, IP66, 6-year warranty. Personal carry, vehicles and home use.
Many organisations use both. The Elliot covers personal carry, vehicles and smaller sites. The CR2 Cellular handles fixed sites where LIFELINKcentral fleet monitoring and cprINSIGHT matter. Our team can help you design the right program across your whole estate.
Still not sure? Our paramedic-led team includes intensive care paramedics who assess sites like yours every week. Tell us about your setup and we will give you a clear, honest recommendation at no cost.
In line with our commitments towards Indigenous enterprise engagement we selected Integrity Health & Safety to supply our defibrillators. Their professional advice, fast service and competitive pricing made the decision easy.'

Frequently asked questions
What is the key difference between the LIFEPAK CR2 Cellular and the HeartHero Elliot?
Can the LIFEPAK CR2 Cellular be used without training, like the HeartHero Elliot?
How does LIFELINKcentral differ from the HeartHero App for device monitoring?
What are the warranty periods for the CR2 Cellular and the Elliot?
Can I buy both the LIFEPAK CR2 Cellular and the HeartHero Elliot from Integrity Health & Safety?
The CPR analysis method. The Elliot pauses CPR for rhythm analysis, as most AEDs do. The LIFEPAK CR2's cprINSIGHT technology analyses the patient's heart rhythm while chest compressions continue, significantly reducing or eliminating the analysis pause. The clinical significance is real: CPR interruptions reduce blood flow and affect survival outcomes. For organisations where that matters, the CR2's approach is a meaningful technical distinction. The second difference is fleet scale: the CR2 with LIFELINKcentral is designed for organisations managing multiple devices; the Elliot and its app suit single-device or small-fleet use.
Yes. Both are Publicly Accessible Defibrillators designed for untrained bystanders. The HeartHero Elliot is fully automatic - no shock button needed. The LIFEPAK CR2 Cellular can be configured as fully automatic or semi-automatic. Both use voice prompts and visual cues to guide every step. The CR2 also adds ClearVoice automatic volume adjustment, which helps in noisy environments. We provide free familiarisation training with every purchase.
The HeartHero App monitors a single device or a small number of devices via Bluetooth and LTE, displaying battery status, pad condition and self-test results. LIFELINKcentral is an enterprise-grade fleet management platform for multiple connected CR2 devices, providing automated self-monitoring, geolocation tracking, expiry date management, real-time alert notifications and data storage in Australia. For organisations managing more than a handful of AEDs, LIFELINKcentral adds meaningful operational value.
The LIFEPAK CR2 Cellular carries an 8-year manufacturer warranty. The primary battery provides 4 years of standby life. Electrode pads are replaced every 4 years. The HeartHero Elliot carries a 6-year warranty, with pads lasting 5.5 years and batteries lasting 3 years. For organisations prioritising a longer warranty period, the CR2 Cellular has an advantage.
Yes. We are an authorised distributor for both LIFEPAK and HeartHero products. Many organisations use a mix: the Elliot for personal carry, home use and vehicles, and the LIFEPAK CR2 Cellular for fixed workplace sites where connected fleet monitoring and cprINSIGHT are priorities. Free shipping, free familiarisation and ongoing paramedic-led support are included with every purchase.
