And during a earthquake or tremor? |
|
|
How many calls until your house is structurally damaged? And, I'm not sure this is going to be a "silent ring". |
|

//Isn't there something like this already in place for deaf people// If there is, link it. I want one |
|
|
How many evilpenguins are there?! |
|
|
Thanks to [jutta] for that ;P |
|
|
//Isn't there something like this already in place for deaf people?// |
|
|
Yes, there is. I was once awakened by one in a house I was visiting. I somehow recognized the rhythm of the pulses as matching that of a phone ringer, but it scared the beejezus out of me for a few long seconds. |
|
|
// I dropped the '521' // |
|
|
I hate to have to say this, but it looks like it caught up to you again! |
|
|
I don't know who I am anymore.... |
|
|
Here: I found this '521'. Is it yours? |
|
|
So is [evilpenguin] someone who takes an hour to load the bong and a sixty seconds to find the lighter? |
|
|
Takes me 5 minutes to roll a dutch, but what are you really saying [Galbinus_Caeli]? |
|
|
521 sounds like an hour and a minute after 420, I am just trying to figure out what is so special about that number. |
|
|
Actually it's my birthday |
|
|
I jumped head first into the bakery when I found it, thinking there might just be another 'evilpenguin'..... and now that I know I stand alone with my evil flightless birdness, I realized there was no need for '521' |

Tesla supposedly built a little doodad that could perhaps
be used here, see link. |

Vibration/shaking tables, for testing equipment and building designs, are Baked and WKTE, as are active mass dampers for controlling the oscillations of tall buildings, so it's quite practical to implement. |
|
|
It may be important to check the critical resonant frequences of your building before use.... |
|
|
Might be nice to have a roof- mounted auxetophone relay to broadcast your ringtone and notification sound. |
|
|
My grandfather wired an alarm bell into the telephone circuit so he could hear it ring when he was in his shed. Probably illegal back then |
|
|
That would probably depend on the distance between the shed and the house, and the location of the bell. |
|
|
For example, an external ringer on the house, loud enough to be audible in a shed 500m away, could be problematic if there are neighbours within hearing distance. |

[pocmloc] thank you for introducing me to the term "auxetophone ". What a delightful word. |
