Looking for screw-in dinger with normal bulb base
Is such a thing made? I know you can buy 12vdc bulbs for backup lights
on your car which ding-ding as a backup warning. But, I want some simple screw-in thingie which will audibly warn me to close the $&^%* garage door instead of leaving it up all night for the possums and cats to get in. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Just get one of those adapter that screws into the socket and gives you an
outlet from there you can plug in a radio or alarm clock or anything else that makes noise! Wayne "Lord Possum" wrote in message news:PrbXb.28906$jk2.68337@attbi_s53... Is such a thing made?

At a good hardware store, they sell Flasher Modules.
It's a small circular disk that you drop inside a light bulb socket, then you screw in the light bulb on top of it. It makes the light bulb flash on and off until you turn the light switch off. Use one of these in your application? Best--- Ron Lord Possum wrote in message news:PrbXb.28906$jk2.68337@attbi_s53... Is such a thing made?

Those screw in adapters used to be called "female bodies." Has the
politically correct squad renamed them? RB Lord Possum wrote: "wayne" wrote in message news:GkcXb.29229$jk2.68996@attbi_s53...

You could always just get the proper equipment instead of jury-rigging your door:
