Hi, can this be installed with one of 4 handsets, one that is not the "mother phone" in a set of 4?

Not positive but don't think so. Mine does not flash, don't know why and the ringer doesn't seem any louder than the regular phone ringer. Not worth it.

We have a number of phones on the same line - in the garage, downstairs, etc. I found that it worked well regardless of which phone I hooked it up to. It was easy to install and does the trick. My husband is almost totally deaf, so the flasher allows him to see that someone is calling the house.

I don't see any reason why it would not work. It just needs to be connected to the phone charging base and the wall cord. Just disconnect the wall cord from the phone charging base, plug it into the phone ringer, and attach the phone ringer into the phone charging base.

I don't know. I only have one line. However, the extra handset I bought seems to work interchangeably with all the other handsets. It just seems to be one more on the common circuit.

If you "shop around" on various Amazon sites, probably you will find some deal that sends more handsets with the first purchase of your base unit and handsets. Adding more handset after your original purchase is more than a one step process. Each base set is preprogrammed to work with the set of handsets that come with the original purchase (base set & handsets). In order to add new handsets to your original base set you will need to follow the exact instructions that came with your original purchase. Then the added handsets will be programmed to your base unit. Yes, keep those instructions. I strongly suggest that you just buy more handsets with the original purchase. My memory isn't clear about the various units I shopped, but it seems that six handsets were offered with one deal. Good luck. BM

You need to buy a base unit that will work with this hand set. If you look on the Amazon site for your item, it lists all of the base sets it works with, "Extra Handset for: KX-TG7733S, KX-TG7732S, KX-TG7742S, KX-TG7743S, KX-TG7745S, KX-TG7741S, KX-TG7731S"

I have 3 handsets operating off of the base and you do have to "register" each one to the base for them to work.

The other phones should work. I have 4 phones all hooked up at the same time.

Rasheed, we have this system with 5 different handsets and 4 different phone lines. You can place calls on any line using any handset. Hope that helps.

Like the others said, you also need the base unit. Ours came with two handsets, and I bought this extra handset unit so we'd have a total of 4 phones (the base unit - which is a phone/transmitter/data storage/etc) and three handsets which receive their signal from the base unit.

Here is what the manual says: "You can expand your phone system by registering optional handsets (6 maximum) to a single handset." Hope this helps. We have not added any additional handsets, 2 came with the unit. We have been very happy with this unit.

I had to buy another handset, mine worked. You have to use the locator on the base unit and it will find the extra handsets.

If the handsets match the base, you can add handsets to it. The base unit has a maximum number of handsets that can be added. Consult the docs on that, and to make sure you are adding the right model to the existing base unit.

If you had read your manual, it states clearly(and on the features listing on Amazon for at least one of the base units) that the base can only connect to 5 handsets.

Yes, you can purchase another handset without purchasing another base. The extra handset comes with its own charging base. You should be able to pick one up wherever you bought the single handset or at Amazon.

Up to the maximum that the particular base can handle. You will need to check the specs for that info. For example, the KX-TG7745S comes with 5 handsets and can handle 6; so, you can add 1.

Yes you can, the Additional Digital Cordless Handset model # is KX-TGA950, you can add up to 6 Handsets.

Yes, there is an option to be mounted on the wall, though I believe only for the main phone, not for the additional handsets.

No. You just need to pick up more of the splitter boxes that came with the system. You can connect 4 more phones to each splitter box.
