Connect Any Landline Phone To Your Cell Phone! (even old rotary phones!) 

This is AMAZING. In the old days, you used to see a telephone next to every recording console in studios. My business is a studio and I’ve always wanted an old phone next to the console. THIS IS THE WAY.

I'm old enough that I remember using a rotary phone with pulse dialing. Then getting a touch pad phone with pulse dialing, getting a cordless radio phone with pulse dialing and then finally getting a phone with (TA DA) touch tone dialing. 🙂 I hate to admit this, but the area I grew up in when I was a kid I remember we had a "party line" phone where you had to wait for the line to be unused to make a phone call, and there could always be someone listening in. Strange now looking back on those times. But, I can' t say I miss any of that. Neat idea for nostalgia lovers though. BTW... I'm 63 incase you wondered. Have you been taking your classic plane out much lately? William C. central Indiana.

I looked for a device like this ten years ago largely because my phone only works in certain places of the house. Now I need to find a rotary for full awesomeness.

Fun! I miss rotary dial.

I remember the old phones use a lot of power to ring. All that voltage and wattage coming from that little box connected a 5v powerbank?? If I remember right a ringing old phone takes 64volts alternating current. I don't know how much power but in the old phone are real big coils and hammers that hit real bells. I am really curious how the makers could make a device of 40 dollars doing this. Will it last beyond a few rings?

Wait. You have a 2nd channel Max?!? How did I not know this?

Rotary dial phone calls, sure. But have you tried to send a text with a rotary dial?

Can this be used the other way around, to answer incoming calls on the landline, from the cell phone? i.e. by connecting the Cell 2 Jack device's RJ11 cable, into the landline wall jack, using a two-way jack adapter, to keep the landline phone connected. If not, is there a device for this purpose? Here's the reason: I work in a restaurant which his phone is connected to a landline. When I have to take delivery calls, I am often away from the phone and have to run to it to answer. Thank you.

Very cool. Thanks for sharing!

Does "clicking over" to daily another number and "clicking back over" work using bypass on the landline phone?

I ordered one. I like using my answering machine to screen calls. It is loud and tells me the name of the person.

You familiar with SDR radio? I know there is tons of videos about SDR but would be nice to see your take on it

Pretty cool!

Where I can buy that adapter? I can't find him anywhere.

Can you use the rotary phone to call your cell phone so it rings in case you can't find it?

Can you tell me the model and the name of the battery pack you are using. This is very important. You see the point is I am disabled and if the power did not work that means that the landline phone would not work. Also one more point which in turn I simply just couldn't get out of bed and go into the next room and use the mobile phone. This device would really help me a lot. But without that battery back up you're showing it would be useless to me.

Can you play music from your cell phone to the old phone using this?

What generates the dial tone?

Can you give a link for the adapter?

set this up with a Google Voice phone number and have fun.

can you receive calls with it?

Max seriously why do you still have a rotary phone? Im going to use this to convince my wife I'm not the packrat she thinks I am

A 4 prong cord? I've never seen that. Why do you even have a phone that old?!? 😂

RJ11

cool stuff
