I work on call for the railroad and I need undisturbed sleep when I get off work. The railroad will not call for 10 hours after I get off. I know there is a phone (not mobile) that exists that can be programmed to not ring between the times one selects. I need this phone with a self restoring ringer to automatically enable the ringer after the time is up. What is the make and model of this phone and where can I find one? |

The only telephones I've found that offer a Do Not Disturb feature are phones that are designed for multi-line business key systems. I did find an answering machine that I believe would achieve your purpose: "Programmable Do-Not-Disturb Option turns off speaker (room monitor) and takes message on second ring." http://www.epinions.com/General_Electric_2_9992_626450/display_~full_specs Another thing that you might want to consider: many phone companies offer a "Do Not Disturb" custom-calling feature that would enable you to use any telephone, and activate the feature as needed for the hours you choose. A small fee is charged for this feature; sometimes if you bundle several custom-calling features together (such as Caller ID, Call Waiting, Call Forwarding, etc.) you can get a bargain rate on extra features. Here's an example: http://www.qwest.com/pcat/for_home/product/1,1354,16_1_8,00.html |

How about getting a standard cordless phone, then plug it into a timer (like the ones to set lights to automatically go on and off). Tell it to turn off at the hour, no power will go to the phone, so no phone ringy...At the 10 hour point (which you'll have to set as the "on time") the power will be resotred to the phone, and it will ring when calls come in. The timer itself should be easy to find and ~$10, and I think it should solve your problem. Hope this helps! |
