What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
This plug-in receiver converts signals from Sonic Alert alerting transmitters into visible light flashes by controlling any standard lamp plugged into it. It's designed for deaf or hard-of-hearing people who need a visual cue — a flashing lamp — instead of an audible alarm when a doorbell, phone, smoke alarm, or other Sonic Alert transmitter fires. You get the receiver unit itself, but you'll need at least one compatible Sonic Alert transmitter and a lamp to complete the system; this is one piece of a larger alerting setup. The on/off switch lets the lamp double as regular room lighting, which is a practical convenience, but the receiver must be within wireless range of the transmitter and is not a standalone solution.
