Bubba

I got it off a friend of mine here in the UK. I have a prototype which I tested for him. Still works well.

I can get in contact with him and see if he is actually at the stage of selling them yet, if you like. Otherwise there is a website www.cdadapter.com I think that does something similar but runs off a 100 CD Player.

I have enclosed a picture of the gadget. The two wires run to the wallbox and connect up to create the pulse. The box changes the pulse into something the PC can read and its all connected via a mouse.

Let me know if your mate is interested. I don't think they are very expesive but he will need a working wallbox. A 3W1 your side should set him back a couple of hundred dollars. I picked up four once that had been sitting around for over 20 yrs. Plugged them all in and all four worked great.

So that little box will make a wallbox operate a pc, something like realplayer or Windows media player? Yes, I'd definately like some more info on it and if its available... I'll look into the other one as well...

I have a stand alone PC operating on W98 using Windows Media Player, I think. There is a CD room containing software to put the whole thing together. I can even make a slection which will random play or will canx the current tune.

I put my PC speakers into some drive in movie speaker cases and hey presto, nobody would ever know. I've got a old laptop that I just need a extrnal CD drive for and then I'm going to set it up in my downstairs toilet so guests can chose a tune whilst they take a moment.

I'll try and connact the person tonight. Someone else has also expressed an interest.. It goes without saying that whatever he charges me is what you pay.

Yea, try it out.  GR is also a good resource for parts since there are a lot of ads for all kinds of stuff!

I ordered the current issue and I have a subscription in the works... I think this mag may get me in trouble... Either that, or I just may be able to save my wife money just like she saves me money '<img'>

Matt.. check your pm... Thanks '<img'>
