Hi George,
If according to your local Philips guy that the charge time on battery is a battery test rather than a charge time test, does it mean the the MRx does not have "Battery Capacitance Test" same as that with HeartStart XL ?
so how will you know if the batteries requires replacement? Depending on equipment use (ER, ambulance, etc), the batteries could require replacement before 2 years and using the ~3 hour "Battery Capacitance Test" of the XL was a good way to find out if the batteries are still capable of delivering the necessary "juice" .
We havent standardized to Philips for our defibs, not yet anyway, but its nice to know this info and maybe our local Philips distributor can shed further light on these matters.
