Fire 6 Power Rugged Phone (15,500mAh) | NDIS Safety & SOS Aid

Ensure safety, connection, and independence with the Fire 6 Power Rugged Phone. This is more than a smartphone; it is a critical piece of assistive technology engineered for high needs. With a massive 15,500mAh battery, military-grade durability, and dedicated SOS safety features, it provides NDIS participants with a lifeline that won't run out of power when it matters most.

How This Safety Device Supports NDIS Participants

The Fire 6 addresses specific risks associated with memory, motor control, and personal safety:

• Eliminating "Dead Battery" Risks (Executive Function): For participants with memory challenges who forget to charge devices daily, a standard phone is a safety risk. This massive battery provides multi-day power, ensuring the device is always ready for emergency calls, telehealth, or support coordination.

• Emergency SOS Support: Features a super-bright rear flashlight with SOS modes and customizable side buttons. These can be programmed to launch emergency apps or lighting instantly, providing a quick way to summon help or navigate safely in the dark.

• Mitigating Breakage & Replacement Costs: For users with motor challenges (tremors, dyspraxia) or behavioural needs, dropping a phone is common. The IP68/IP69K shock-proof build prevents breakage, ensuring consistent communication without the financial burden of repairs.

• Powering Your Toolkit (Reverse Charging): The 15,500mAh capacity allows this phone to act as a portable power bank. It can charge other critical assistive devices (like hearing aid streamers, tablets, or tracking watches) via USB-C reverse charging while out in the community.

Key Features & Benefits

• Industry-Leading 15,500mAh Battery: One of the largest batteries available in a smartphone. Supports extended usage for days and features 18W fast charging to top up quickly.

• Telehealth-Ready Display: The large 16.6 cm (6.56-inch) HD+ display with a 90Hz refresh rate offers smooth, clear visuals, making video consultations with therapists and doctors accessible and frustration-free.

• Rugged Durability (IP68/IP69K): Certified to withstand water submersion, dust, and drops. It is built for demanding environments, making it ideal for independent living and community access.

• Customizable Accessibility Keys: Dedicated side buttons can be mapped to specific functions (like opening a communication app, turning on the flashlight, or SOS), simplifying operation for users with fine motor or cognitive challenges.

• Accessible Security: A side-mounted fingerprint sensor allows for natural, easy unlocking without needing to type complex PIN codes on a screen.
