Ringing Phone Light FlasherI have received several emails asking how to connect up some lights so that
when the phone rings, they flash. This is very useful in a situation were there
is lots of noise and it is impossable to hear the phone, such as a workshop.
Here is such a device. The ring detect part of this circuit came from

Notes:
1. You may need to use a lower voltage zener for D1 and D2.
2. You can use a regular relay instead of a solid state relay, but the arcing
accross the contacts may destroy it pretty quickly.
3. Be very sure that you have not accidentally connected 120V to the phone
line when building and installing this circuit.
