Hi Wade....It's a DeVilbiss Vacu-aide, Model # 7305P.....Has a power cord, but also has an internal rechargeable battery. It's brand new, and was only used 4 or 5 times while she cared for her terminally ill father at home.
Now...after I posted here this morning, I received another email from a lady that saw a "wanted" ad that I posted on "Freecycle".. (I posted on CL and Freecycle at the same time). This lady has offered me a unit that she has as well. (I don't know the model on that yet....I am picking it up tomorrow morning.) Obviously I dont need two, but I have a friend that makes wine, and I am going to offer it to her.
I guess the bottom line here is that these units are out there, and if you post an ad for one, you might be very surprised to get one free of charge.
Many folks who are ill and are being cared for at home, thru hospice, etc., use these types of pumps. When the person who is ill has passed away, or goes into the hospital to pass, many families dont know what to do with this piece of equipment and are most often very happy to be rid of them.
I encourage any of this forum's members to post ads........It doesnt cost a thing....and could save you $100.00 or more.
