Can anyone tell me if there is a device that you can plug your cellphone into so that
It rings more like a regular land line phone, so that you can hear it in other rooms, or
At night. Thanks so much

Why can't you take you cell phone where you are at night ?

It's not loud enough to wake me up!

Mine is quite loud enough to wake me up when I turn the RINGER UP. Put it under your pillow.

My husband has sever hearing loss. I'm actually wanting something that I could hear in another room, as I am in a wheelchair, and sometimes forget my phone leaving one room for another. Thanks anyway, maybe someone could answer my actual question of
Exsisting products. Brickydaw

brickydawg, thanks for giving more information on your problem. Sometimes these questions aren't legitimate or a kid fooling around asking silly questions, if you know what I mean.

I checked around and found that Verizon has a cell phone for severe hearing loss and it is the model LG 4650 flip phone.

I didn't locate an add on feature to amplify sound on cell phones.

Sorry, best I could do.

I have an idea, but would need to know if it might work before I go researching possible products.

If it would be OK if you placed the phone near a small microphone.

A microphone + pre-amp + amplifier could work.

So could a wireless microphone system. I'm afraid of the cost though.

I have another idea as well. Why not forward your cell to the landline, if you have one?

For att it's *21*<phone number>#

To remove forwarding it's #21#

Thanks for a useful answer. That sounds as if it would work. It might be worth checking into. I just figured with all the tech available, surely I could find something.

Hi, I realize this is an older question, but I also was looking for a solution. Noisy environment and elderly, my mother needed something.

I found this advertised, looks like a good, although expensive, option.

It is a base for a cell phone that rings when the cell phone rings is is supposed to be very loud.

I am considering solving this problem just now. Since smoke alarms are loud and cheap, I am looking to modify a smoke alarm so that it can 'hear' the cell ringer and then go into alarm briefly.

After a few beeps the alarm shuts off so that when I arrive, I won't get my ears blasted.

The problem to solve is how may I detect the phone ringing and trigger the smoke alarm.

You people who submitted these answers all either " dorks " or you can't read English.
He asked if there was a device to plug your cell phone " into " so it would ring louder... not whether you could buy special loud cell phones or cook up home remedies.
If you don't have an answer then don't respond.

[M.A.R.C.]

There is probably no manufactured device to help us almost deaf people hear a cell phone in the house because no company is interested in making such a device for just a few people. I am almost deaf from a grenade in the army and I am willing to pay about $200.00 for such a device. (That's probably a lot more than it would cost to manufacture, but potential profit is the key to manufacturing such a new product.) Just keep in mind that the volume of the ring has to be two or three times the volume that people with normal hearing require. A knob volume control would be very helpful.

I found 2 gadgets

Serene Innovations RF110 = wireless cell phone ring amplifier about 60$
Uni-Max Cell Phone/Pager Ring Tone Amplifier about 110$

Some of us don't have the phone attached to our hip. I don't carry mine everywhere.
