Looking for a bell that will plug into phone

[nnaarrnn]

A few months ago I installed an IP500v2 in for a customer who has a large garage. They're having trouble hearing the phone in the garage (9604). Is there some sort of bell or alert system I can install that will (hopefully) connect to the back of the phone? I should have an extra pair of wire at the phone jack (used to have a partner system) if necessary.

Thanks in advance!

I would use an electronic bell that uses an analog station port. The loudest ones are locally powered. Configure analog station port to ring whenever garage phone rings.

Internal twinning is your friend then..

The Stinger 90 by Dees has a very penetrating ring that works well in high noise environments.

Connect it to an analog extension port. No AC power necessary.

We found a sired+strobe combo to use. It will hang off an analog port. I didn't want to run any more cable there, which is why I was originally looking for something that would plug into the phone like a headset.

Okkie26 - I'm not sure how twinning would help them hear a phone.

Because once you've installed the bell to an analogue port you would twin it to the user who needs to hear it

internal twinning, not mobile twinning.
