Analyst Summary: MobileHelp   |  Solo

The MobileHelp Solo is an unusual “go anywhere” medical alert system, in which you take with you both a small mobile base station (for example in your purse) and a conventional medical alert pendant.

It is part of the MobileHelp Duo family: basically this is the mobile base station portion of the Duo, without the main stationary base station.

MobileHelp makes this product and sells it to consumers, but they also wholesale it to a variety of companies that rebrand it and sell it to consumers. The MobileHelp product runs on the AT&T network.

The MobileHelp Duo was part of our testing of the best “go anywhere” class of emergency response systems, and is one of our recommended products. If you are interested in either the Duo or the Solo you should read this comparative analysis.

We acquired the MobileHelp Duo from LifeFone.

If you are trying to decide between the MobileHelp Duo and the Mobilehelp Solo, we think the areas to check (we have not done this) are as follow. Ask about:

  • the farthest distance the pendant can be from the base station and still work (ie in the two cases of mobile base station (Solo) and larger base station (Duo);
  • how far you can be from each base station and still be heard when the operator speaks to you after an emergency call.
