Vtech VT40-2421 CHARGER Wall Mount??

[Jim Thompson]

I have a Vtech VT40-2421 wireless phone system.

Unfortunately the charger base for the HANDSETS (VT40-2420) is a
"stand on a flat surface only" design, you can't wall mount it.

Looks like it's simply a 13.3VDC (open-circuit) source, so I could
cobble up something that would hang on the wall.

However any of you, who have been married 1/10 as long as I, know that
appearance is everything... an engineer's rendition of a wall mount
isn't likely to get past the management ;-)

I've surfed around without success.

Any ideas, or maybe someone has found something that would work?

TIA!

You can wall mount anything with duct tape. Put some nice floral-print
shelf liner over it when you're done.

Hello Jim,

This one?

Ours is similar but from AT&T. All I could think of is to buy a nice
vase holder or pedestal shelf with hidden mounting screws. But I'd take
the missus along, else you'll have to return it if the shade of color is
just a tad off.

Regards, Joerg

Clearly YOU have not been married for 46 years ;-)

Sno-o-o-rt!

I may just carefully saw it at the right angle, then glue it to a
piece of wood.

Gee, we had no Idea you were married to Mrs. Deming.

;D

Maybe a simple small wooden shelf would suffice.

The woman acceptance factor (WAF) might be too low. Just learned that
expression in a EU newsgroup.
