Price is what the vendor listed when last checked. Confirm it with the vendor before buying.

Setup with instructions Everything needed comes in the box, and a family member can set it up from the instructions in under an hour. It takes a bit of work, though. You have to connect the phone signaler, place the doorbell, pair the pager, and test each alert. That is more than just opening the box and using it, but it does not need a professional.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

The Central Alert CA380 is a wearable alerting kit for someone with hearing loss who wants to know when the phone or doorbell is going off. A small phone signaler and a doorbell transmitter send a wireless signal to a pager you carry, which vibrates, sounds an audible alert, and shows blinking icons so you can tell what triggered it. The pager's buttons have braille markings. A 9V bed shaker is also in the box and plugs into the phone signaler for alerts while sleeping. The system works up to about 200 feet away, and the phone alerts cover landline and cell calls.
