My 'Visual Alert' door bell has gone deaf!

I bought two devices that attach to my phone and to the doorbell. When one rings, the device flashes a strobe light to let me know that someone is either calling or at the door. I can't hear the ringers if I'm playing my guitar or using headphones (actually, I often can't hear them anyway) as I'm pretty deaf.

One of the devices was no longer 'hearing' its ringer! The phone was ringing and I never knew it. My wife had to come in from the other room and answer it. "Dialing for Dollars" or "Publisher's Clearing House" could have been trying to reach me and I never would have known. I could have lost millions!!!

Damn cat musta pulled the plug when she was chasing her toys!
