The one downside to modern cordless phones is a big one if it ever catches you unaware: they don't work during power outages. This backup power supply from Southwestern Bell prevents this unnecessary hassle by providing 24 hours of standby time or four hours of talk time. It works with most cordless phones on the market. LEDs on the front panel display a visual cue to the amount of power left in the pack. The boxy modern styling and funky blue light panel make this power supply worthy of a permanent home on the counter instead of stuffed away in the closet with the rest of the emergency provisions. Easy to use, the unit connects between your cordless phone's power supply and the AC wall outlet.
Product Description:
For most people, the proliferation of cordless phones ranks alongside microwaves and cable TV modern conveniences you don't fully appreciate until you're forced to do without. Despite the popularity of cordless phones, a common misconception is that they will still operate during a power outage. Unless you have a phone with an integrated backup battery, chances are you'll have a dead phone during a power outage ... unless you have the Cordless Phone Emergency Backup.One thing most cordless phone users don't realize (until it's too late) is that the cordless phone base must have power to communicate with the cordless handset. With the exception of some higher-end models that have integrated backup batteries, these cordless bases will not work during a power outage, rendering the cordless phone useless until power is reestablished an inconvenience at best, or the difference between life and death in a crisis.Installation couldn't be easier. Using one of four included adapters and receptacles on the back of the Emergency Backup unit, you simply disconnect the cordless phone base from its AC adapter cord, and connect the Emergecy Backup unit between the two. Advanced circuitry matches incoming voltage and polarity, making installation like a child's peg board. If the plug fits, it's installed correctly! In the event of a power outage, the Emergency Backup instantaneously provides the cordless base with battery power, and illuminates the room with a gentle blue light, provding safe guidance to the phone in dark rooms.Cordless phones vary greatly in their power consumption, but the Emergency Backup will provide enough power on average for 4 hours of continuous talk time, longer if phone use is kept to a minimum.Under normal circumstances, the Emergency Backup unit sits silently next to your cordless phone, providing surge and spike protection for both the power and phone lines.Phone pictured not included.
