And more. This accessory kit for smart phones (works with iPhone, Samsung, HTC, iPad, tablets and many others) has a 2” long clip-on bracket with screw-in macro, wide-angle and fish-eye lenses. Paul loves his kit and he’s our optics expert. Use the macro for insects, coins and diamonds. Fish-eye and wide-angle for great visual effects. Includes a little pouch to carry it all in, and tiny lens caps.

Note: Two lenses come threaded together to conserve space. 

Time was, you could easily hold a phone on your shoulder and have both hands free to make notes and hold your drink. Those days are back with this handset that mimics the Bell System's model 500, in use 1950 to 1984 and designed by the venerable Henry Dreyfuss. Stick the standard 1/8" mini-plug into your cell phone, tablet or PC and you're a mad man on the phone. Includes answer button, volume control and a coiled cord longer than you need. Now just choose a retro color that suits you!

In fact, put (2) USBs in your buggy with this cigarette-plug adapter that converts to two standard USB outlets with a 2.1 Amp output so you and your passenger can get recharged together. We’ll pick one in a color that will either complement or contrast with your dashboard, and your eyes.

Our oddest twofer: a 9-foot USB charging cable with tape-measure markings in 1/16” and 1mm increments on it. Has a standard USB jack at one end and both micro-USB and lightning jacks on a Y-plug at the other. Not only permits long-distance charging, it tells you how long the distance is!

Ten-packs of 2-pin breakouts (or terminal blocks) from telephone junction boxes, in black or gray with red and green leads that terminate in a modular plug. The breakouts measure 11/16" wide x 5/8" high x 3/4" deep. The screw terminals are 1-1/4" long and the modular plug jumper reaches about 2-3/8" when snapped into its clip.

By jiminy. A little jumper cord with a modular plug on one end and flat "T" connectors on the other side at the end of dual leads. Wires are insulated, with 3-1/2" of the 7" length covered by a telephone-wire-style gray jacket.

Our 4-1/2" long x 2" wide x 1" deep cell phones fit nicely in this black-leather carrying case. The front is a 2-1/2" x 1-5/8" window of clear plastic through which you can press the buttons. The case is open on the bottom so you can access the ports, and comes with a 6" wrist strap and a plastic belt/pocket clip. A small strap snaps over the phone antenna to keep it from slipping out. Unfortunately, if your phone doesn't have an external antenna, there is nothing to keep it in except a snug fit, an extraordinarily rigid posture, and a determination to never bend over.

This 7-foot length of standard 4-wire gray telephone cord has a modular plug on each end and an in-line 1-1/2" x 1" dia interference blocking RF filter at one end. 'Nuff said.

One too many jerks on your phone? Fix that loose connection with a new telephone cord. Our replacement set includes (1) 80" wall-to-phone line cord and a matching 16" coiled handset cord that extends to approx 6 feet, with modular plugs on both ends of both cords. The sets are forest green, white, taupe, light blue, dark blue, and whatever shows up next. Our choice, but we'll give you (4) sets in at least (2) different colors, at a price that will ring your bell.

Our phone headsets all have swing-up mics with a windscreen, adjustable headbands and padded ear-pieces. The 4-foot cords terminate in a 5-pin DIN plug. (Orienting the plug with the pins on the bottom, the two left pins are 35-ohm, probably for the speaker; the middle pin is not active; and the two right pins are 2K, we think for the mic.) You pick the left-ear set or the adjustable set, which will fit either left or right ears.

This padded earpiece has a 46" cord, nice little padded ear gripper to keep it from falling out, an extra ear pad, an inline answer switch and a pivoting microphone like all the football coaches wear. Made for Nokia, it has a non-standard 3mm TRRS Nokia plug, but could be rewired with another size plug by anyone with minimal motivation and soldering skills.

Take care of your screens and they'll take care of you. (A drill sergeant told us this about our socks once, but this time it's true.) This kit includes (3) wet and (3) dry anti-static wipes, a 7" x 4-1/2" microfiber cleaning cloth, and (6) self-adhesive clear vinyl screen protectors at 3-1/2" x 2-3/4" with a grid on the back to help cut them to size, and a little plastic thingy to squoogee the air bubbles out.

Nice low-profile wall charger has fold-in prongs and dual USB ports for a 2A maximum output. Measures 2-3/4” x 1-1/2” x 1-3/8”. From Vivitar®. UL.

Smart money thinks it will be after the Third Romulan War, but it could be sooner. Get prepped with this retro-style almond push-button phone with a partially coiled 58" cord, modular plug, ringer on/off switch, and plastic wall mount. Screws included. Please note that these phones have only a pulsed dialing output and may not work on all landlines.
