Developer Saved Years Later by His Own Hardware

This is a great story about the power of AEDs to save lives. I lost a younger cousin almost 15 years ago [1] but since then my aunt and uncle have worked tirelessly to have them put in public places around our state (and others). My sister&#x27;s place-of-employment installed several and two people have been saved just there.<p>There are hundreds of stories like this one and you can help. Take an AED training class - Make sure they&#x27;re installed in public places in your area - Donate to make sure they&#x27;re installed in other places.<p>The life you save might be your own!<p>[1] <a href="http://gregaed.org/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;gregaed.org&#x2F;</a>

For those wondering just what&#x27;s inside, Mike (of Mike&#x27;s Electric Stuff[0]) has some excellent teardowns with commentary on a few[1][2]. The engineering constraints (high reliability with low maintenance, instructing the user how to operate it, etc) make them very interesting machines.<p>[0] <a href="http://electricstuff.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;electricstuff.co.uk&#x2F;</a><p>[1] <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pn-Wv9YAfv0" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=pn-Wv9YAfv0</a><p>[2] <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWC22NufDUo" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=eWC22NufDUo</a>

Go Green!<p>No but really, this is like, every engineer&#x27;s dream that his creation would someday save him

I guess this is some good instant karma!
