Очень хорошая реставрация! Гораздо лучше многих. Только куда конденсатор делся? Возможно, он был нужен для постоянного тока, и теперь необходимость в нём отпала, но хотелось бы, чтобы это было прокомментировано в видео.

It's gorgeous and has a great vintage sound. Your friend did a wonderful job restoring the wood. The doorbell probably looked like this the day it was made.

Only you existing for me ! All other guys do it really fast and not so properly , so I just wanna say you are the best restoration KZreadr ever!! Thank you for this and other video!

Oh this is lovely. We called them chime boxes. Also I have the one that came from me grandparents old house. Its actually sitting in my living room in a glass cabinet. The wood isn't as good as this one. I'm just thankful I thought about taking it while I could. That was 40 years ago.

What is it that gives me such joy to watch? I'll tell you. The box is, in size and construction, similar to a pair of boxes that my dad made when he was a teen, aprox. 1940, in Geneseo, Kansas, USA (2020 census 236 people), which sat upon a Queen Anne style, solid walnut writing desk that was a part of our living room furniture for my entire life. My folks, both born in 1924, the greatest generation... Thank you for spurring memories. Yes, of course, there is some German in us. Ok, back to the digital recordment... (not video).

This is something that was used during the great depression America. It's what kind of material this antique doorbell was made out of. Including the way it was built.

That's not a doorbell. It's a phone bell. The capaciator most likely 1uF is for deviding the AC Power for the bell from the DC Power of the speaking cirquit. In a lokal battery prupose it has an other function. Yours seems to be for CB ( Central Battery) use.

@meinemechaniker

No it is door bell 👌

Leaving off the capacitor will ensure arcing and rapid burnout of the make/break contacts. It wont last long. It's easy to find the simple circuit which protects the unit.
