The Belmont Medical buddy lite® AC is portable, battery-powered blood and fluid warmer in an easy-to-use, compact and lightweight package.

Used to help prevent hypothermia during fluid administration, the buddy lite® AC is designed for use in first responder retrievals for trauma, emergency, and emergency transport situations when warm blood or fluid is needed in life-saving efforts.

The device is approved for both ground and fixed-wing or helicopter transport and is used globally in war zones, hospitals, ambulances, air medical retrievals, and ski patrols.

The buddy lite® AC is designed to extend the warming capability of the buddy lite® when AC power is available, allowing for continuous use of the system during long transport times.

The system can easily switch from AC to battery power, eliminating any interruption in fluid resuscitation efforts.
