What do you guys do to hear, or see, that the phone is ringing?

Does anyone know of a gizmo that can be triggered by a wireless phone signal
that would flash a light (not necessarily the overhead lights) in the shop
when the saw, or the DC, or the lathe, etc., is running and I can't hear the
phone?

Our cordless setup has a flasher on the handset to let you know that the phone
is ringing, if you can't hear it...
As most of the time I DON'T hear it, I'm glad that it also blinks when someone
leaves a message..


When we lived in the States, I had the base unit in the shop, so that I could
use a ringer/flasher from radio shack... now, I just let the wife answer it,
it's usually for her anyway.. *g*
