I agree that it needs work, but this is hardly JAFAAC. The trope has two elements: a defibrillator, and it being used to revive people, even when it wouldn't be possible in real life. The current pic clearly shows the first element (the machine itself), but not the second one (magical revival). I guess a picture of a defibrillator being used on someone would be better.
The caption does show the second element, so I'll vote Keep Until Better Image Suggested.

@2 on the contrary, it is textbook JAFAAC. All it shows is a defrib and it you don't know the work it's just a defrib. No indication of doing anything out of RL bounds. "Take our word for it, this specific defrib revives corpses."
I say it's not JAFAAC because it looks like a health item in a video game that you pick up and get instantly healed, aka Heal Thyself.

I really can't see that. And even if that was evident, it is not what this trope is at all.
Also, how is it not JAFAAC? The caption does all the work to make you know the thing can bring back from the death anything. That's as good as a picture of a standing Sonic the Hedgehog with a caption saying he's super fast in Super-Speed.
"Yeah, it's a shame. Here we are in an underground cave with all these lasers, and instead of having a rave we're using it for evil."
No, the other one.
There's nothing about a blue, spiny guy that says speed. An image of a defibrillator shows a device that can save lives. To pick a Sonic equivalence, if would be an image of him running with no indication that it's super fast. Which is pretty much the same as a defibrillator that can save lives but not super effectively.

Yeah, a defibrilator saves lives, but this trope is about it saving lives to a ridiculous extent, something not shown here.
"Yeah, it's a shame. Here we are in an underground cave with all these lasers, and instead of having a rave we're using it for evil."Now, while I won't call this JAFAAC, I think it could be better. Not pullable, but not really illustrating the right trope. So, anybody got any suggestions of a defibrillator in action working as the trope describes?

That. A far cry from JAFAAC, but a far cry from being good.
I agree with Duck so Keep Until Better Image Suggested.
Hi
Clock is set. The overall consensus is Keep Until Better Image Suggested, so unless someone's got a better idea I may close this one early.
Hi
...or not. Clock's up; locking for inactivity. No action is to be taken based on this thread.
It's just a freaking defibrillator. Replacement or not, this one deserves to be sent to the morgue.
