Bag of telephone bits (Maidenhead) Expired 195d - Having discontinued my land line I have a collection of equipment that's now surplus to requirements. This includes extension cables, phone jack to RJ11 cables, ADSL filters and, separately, a BT Checkphone (grey). The Checkphone was based on the iconic Sceptre 100 and was, as far as I know, produced for a point of sale application that never got off the ground. It uses tone dialling so will be usable with fibre (voice over IP) as long as you've subscribed to a digital telephony service. The left hand keys have been repurposed but can be ignored. I think it has last number redial, a 10 number memory and possibly Caller ID. I can't check as I no longer have an analogue line. I also have a BT Sceptre 100 (beige) and an equally iconic Ferranti FlipPhone (red) but these use pulse dialling and are unlikely to be of interest except to collectors. I can supply a contemporary BT tone pad if required.

phone chargers / mains adaptors / leads (Maidenhead) Expired 195d - I have a collection of mains adapters and chargers for phones, laptops and other equipment ranging from 3v to 20v, DC (mostly) and AC, all sorts of connectors, mostly integral UK plugs. If you would like the list please let me know. I also have various mains extension leads and flex (not house wiring cable) BUT hardly anything with a UK trailing socket. Plenty of IEC to IEC and UK to IEC. No hot service IEC (kettle leads).

pair of 200Mb/s powerline ethernet adapters (Maidenhead) Expired 197d - Two Simple Networks 200Mbps pass through powerline ethernet interfaces. These had a tendency to get warm and stop working temporarily when being worked hard in the hot weather. My fix was to swap the lead over to the other unit. They should be fine for something like a printer that's not being hammered all the time. N.B. "pass through" means there's a mains socket on the front.
