- After reading over the discussion over the need of a LOUD telephone
- ringer, I'll tell you of our experience.
-
- A few years ago (aprx. 1984), the business I worked for (a family
- owned business) moved from a garage to a regular building. Since we
- have heavy machinery making loud noises while in use, we needed a loud
- ringer.
-
- The first thing we tried was a Radio Shack outdoor ringer. No good.
- Then, we tried what was originally supposed to be a flasher for the
- hearing impaired, and hooked up a old burglar alarm horm. Bingo, it
- worked, although from that point on, whenever we had a new person
- visit the shop, we had to watch them jump as they heard that horn for
- the first time.
