Can two "Base+1 handset" sets be used together with all 4 handsets working, if only one base is plugged into a phone line? The price difference is crazy!

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

I have a cordless unit with 4 phones that work off the base. I plugged the base into the Telo and all 4 cordless work as well as they did off the landline.

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.

Well I do not know if they sell only the hand set. But I can use a new handset with and old base and a new base whit and old handset. Is only cuestion of pairing.

The base unit automatically comes with one handset. When it says "4 handset bundle," that means the base unit is bundled with 4 independant handsets which have their own charger. I have the base unit in a separate building (across the courtyard from the rest of the house), yet the reception is fine with all of the handsets even though the house is brick. You can find packages for this base unit with 1, 2, 3 or 4 extra handsets. By the way, I purchased an extra handset beyond the 4 (I have a total of 6 handsets including the base unit) and all work fine. I have tried other multi-unit telephones and this one is the best.

To the best of my knowledge the handset is specifically designed with the matching handset and not any other type. I am not aware that they could be bought separately. If you have a different handset with it's own base, yes they will work together, but NOT INTERCHAGABLY.

I accessed the owner's manual online and it said, "Expanding Your Phone-��Your base supports a total of 12 cordless handsets, including any that camewith your phone.��You must register accessory handsets to the base before using them. Handsetsthat aren't registered display a "not registered" message. For registrationinstructions, see page 23 or the accessory handset manual

Edited: you can assign any combination of 8 lines/extensions to ring the base or each of 6 handsets. There are also separate controls for "Grouping Handset/Handset selection for receiving calls", and "Handset and Line No. selection for making calls", so you can also assign different extensions for outgoing calls.

The one I purchased was sold with the 3 extra handsets. I wanted 4. Guess you would have to see if they sell only the main unit. If not, I do remember ATT making one. Just type in single handset in search.

I can't give precise information about this. What i do know is that i bought a uniden base that came with 1 handset, about 10 years ago. the new handset i bought this year from amazon should have been compatible according to the information on the amazon site. i couldn't get the handset coupled with the base, the "firmware" was not compatible. i ended up harvesting the battery from the new handset and put the new handset, and the old battery, into the good will donation box. good luck.

Yes, this is a two line handset compatible with several models. Please provide us with the full model number of your main base so we can provide you a complete compatibility answer.

Just the base is connected to a phone jack. You will want power for the other handsets to charge in the cradle. I have been impressed with this phone so far, the sound is clear and has good range.

Not sure sir. I only have the one base with 5 phones included. I just plugged this extra on in and it synced to the main base and works all features just fine. I can check my voice mails and all with this one added to the 5 phone answering system I have. Hope this helped you!!!

Yes this includes a charging base but you do need the base station (DP-715) for it to work. Also, if you want both to ring to one extension only register one handset. You then set the hunting group to 1 for the other handsets. If you want them to act as separate extensions just register them independently.

I faced this need and satisfied it by buying a complete new system with the answering part, then I used only the hand sets. I think I found a source for the handsets, and it was cheaper to buy the complete set and use only the new handsets. If you buy additional handsets, I found you had to cancel all the current handsets and then re link the old as well as the new handsets. Worked fine doing that.

Yes. Just make sure they're the same model. We have 1 "base" plus five additional stations. The handsets are all interchangeable.
