Today, most people own their own phones, rather than renting them from the phone company. Many people own inexpensive electronic telephones that are notorious for being unreliable. By being able to fix your own telephone you can avoid the monthly "line maintenance and repair  insurance" that the local telephone companies try to sell all their customers. This means you can save much more than the cost of the book by being able to avoid these charges. This guide will take you through beginnning and intermediate levels of telephone repair-including how to work on answering machines, cellular, cordless,  electronic, and classic telephones. It also guides you in using test equipment, multimeters, logic probes, oscilloscopes, and specialized equipment.

Electric vehicles have many advantages over their gas-powered counterparts. They're ecologically sound, much cheaper to operate, and require almost no routine maintenance. Drivers can enjoy the clean-running convenience and economy of an electric vehicle for as much as it costs to buy a new car. This illustrated guide explains step by step how to build an inexpensive EV from a kit or convert an existing internal combustion engine. Build Your Own Electric Car begins with an informative history of electric vehicles, current international advances in EV technology, and a look ahead at the future of EV development. Then, author Bob Brant gives a building-block description of each EV component-motor, drive train, controllers, power supplies, chargers, and chassis-and how to put them all together to make a working vehicle. He also gives valuable advice on where to find affordable EV components and systems, how to get the most out of EV driving and ownership, and how to make the best buy, build, and conversion tradeoffs.
