Here the normal thing is to connect traditional phones to the ONT. They 
maintain the fantasy that everything was as it were (and charge the same 
prices). Actually, if you ask them, it is not possible to connect real 
VoIP phones.

Same here with Verizon FIOS.  My ONT has an ethernet port, a coax port 
for cable TV, and either a modular jack or screw down terminals for 
POTS wiring (or it might have both the modular jack and the screw down 
terminals).

If I had their phone service, the ONT would act as the "central office" 
and provide the 48v standby, 60v RMS AC ring signal, and handle the D/A 
and A/D conversion from old analog POTS to however Verizon carries 
digitized voice phone data over FIOS when that feature is enabled.

Effectively, the ONT is /acting like/ one of those POTS to VOIP 
adapters, just using whatever protocol Verizon uses behind the scenes 
to carry the data.  That protocol might just be VOIP, it might be 
something else, needless to say, they do not tell customers what it is 
nor provide us any normal access into that part of the system.

In my case, it is actually VoIP and you can connect to it on your 
computer. The details have been reverse engineered.

    I bought some batteries, but they weren't
    included - so I had to buy them again.

   Heh Heh Heh ... Steven Wright did some good stuff :-)

   Mentioned one of his little bits at the dentists office
   awhile back - about him being annoyed with the tech always
   complaining - so he ate an entire box of Oreo cookies just
   before coming in. For SOME reason my tech didn't seem all
   that amused  :-)

   Hmm ... IS there some use for dead batteries ? Most just
   throw 'em in the trash, but they ARE full of chems and
   metal salts and such ....

   At minimum, tape 'em together and use them as weights
   for whatever.

   Hey, weights CAN be useful. Have a partial little bag of
   quick concrete mix ... sometimes make little 'bricks' out
   of it as bases for things. COULD buy real bricks at the
   store I suppose, but they're usually too big or small.

When I was a kid I salvaged the carbon core out of D cells. They were good 
for making a arc lights. Didn't even get electrocuted. The big ones were 
even better but I can't remember what they were called. iirc they had two 
screw terminals.

   Heh heh - did the SAME thing !!!  :-)

   You can get carbon rods at a welding supply store.

   There USED to be some for arc-lamp movie projectors
   but I doubt any of those exist anymore. An old friend
   used to work at a creaky Drive-In theater.

I worked with those in the 80's, in a university cine-club. A nucleus of 
carbon and minerals in layers, then an outside layer of copper. About 65 
Amps. Blinding white light!

I think I have a sample as memsake.

(dictionary says "memsake" is bad spelling. What is the correct one?)

Around here the equivalent word is "keepsake".

   "Memsake" - sounds Japanese  :-)

   Anyway, exactly the item. The thin copper kept oxygen
   from getting to anything but the working ends. It'd
   slowly vaporize once the REALLY hot bit progressed
   along.

   It was a dirty projection booth.

   But few were really there to watch the movie.

   Ah :

   My Dad briefly had a job as a projectionist in the
   early 30s - arc lamps and often NITRATE film. There's
   a reason those old projection booths were built like
   a pill-box.

Amazing! They still sell them.

Ah, trick. With Amazon links, you can delete everyhing after the /dp/number.

https://www.amazon.com/PATIKIL-6mmx305mm-Gouging-Graphite-Electrode/dp/ 
B0CZQZSY7H

Then, you can also remove the name:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/ B0CZQZSY7H

The rest, is tracking information about you.

   True.

   But so much editing is More Work than it's
   usually worth.

   Nitrate film could be a massive DISASTER.

   If it lit ... RUN RUN RUN ! It'd burn down
   the whole building.

   The projectionist was SUPPOSED to slam shut
   the STEEL door on exiting. Didn't always
   happen ....

   Nitrate persisted well into the '30s ...
   not so much as new film, but as pre-feature
   old fill-in films.

   Arc lamps did NOT help the equation. Just a
   few seconds of the film jamming and ......

   Hmmm ... saw some old Italian movie not too
   long ago. Everyone at the theater. The film
   jammed for a few seconds - Oh The Horror !

   And such surely happened more than once.

Around here recycling depots take them.  I wouldn't want to
use them as weights or whatever - lots of nasty chemicals start
oozing out...

No. 6 cells.  My early electrical experiments started when I stole
the pair that powered our doorbell.  I might still have one of
those carbon rods around somewhere.

That's it, thanks. I could picture it but not put a name to it. I'm 
pushing the boundaries of memory but I think they were EverReadys with the 
cat logo.

I've started watching the 'Unforgettable' series. I'm not her -- thank the 
Gods.

   Depends. Mostly now I pay a little extra for
   the one-shot lithium batteries. Last a bit
   longer in service, last almost forever in
   storage, don't leak anything.

   Older acid/alk batts ... once saw a flashlight
   AT the hardware store that came with DuraCells.
   They were leaking inside the factory pack !
   Bunny batts are better in this respect.

   Amazon does sell 'em - try "welding carbon rod" search.
   Apparently still used for "gouging". You'll want a good
   step-down transformer and PROTECTION if you wanna make
   big bright light.
