No hand cranking or electrical plugs required. I think modern portable defibrillator has a 4-year battery or something like that. No hand cranking or electrical plugs required.

Bringing back Kite's invention for wilderness survival use. Obviously the Leyden jar wouldn't work too well in a backpack, but there are better battery packs available now -- ones that aren't made of glass. That would be great wouldn’t it?

There are currently no hand cranked models on the market. These could be useful during extended wilderness expiditions or power failures due to the collapse of civilization. Imagine the effect if the early missionaries could resurrect the dead king of a primitive tribe in the wilds of borneo! This design is actually far ahead of modern defibrilators.
