Abstract
A telephone light adapter comprised of an electronic control box connected to a standard telephone and light fixture, the adapter energizing the light fixture when the control box is in an automatic mode for announcing an incoming telephone call, the light fixture remaining energized for a specified period of time after the termination of the call. The control box also energizes the light fixture when the telephone receiver is moved from the cradle position for dialing or when an extension telephone is in use. A three-position switch located on the control box permits the selection of mode of operation while a user switch permits manual operation.
