Easy to install. Very worth it. I have one at my front door I hard wired. One at my garage on battery power. Between the two, most of my property is covered and they give me a lot of piece of mind.

I also have a ringer thing that plugs into an outlet. I'm away right now, so have it set to sound like dogs barking when somebody rings the doorbell or sets off the motion alerts.

I watched a video on YouTube and it looked dead easy.

Extremely easy to install.

If you are replacing the existing door bell, you just need to make sure your door bell transformer pumps out enough voltage for the device.

Finding the door bell transformer and determining it's output, might be the hardest part.

Once that is done, it is just a matter mounting the Ring and connecting the existing wires.

I paid for storage. We get lots of packages delivered and it is nice to go back and watch a recording in case one goes missing.

Also, caught someone not cleaning up their dog poop from my yard. There was like 6-7 poops under the leaves this fall. I Implied I knew who was doing it on the Community Facebook group and the poops stopped.

I have several nest cams so I pay the subscription, I think I pay $11 for 3 cams and a doorbell.

I believe it is $12 unlimited cameras for Ring. We have the doorbell one (original which is garbage as -5 sees battery start to die despite being hardwired and it picks and chooses when to record) and then multiple set up - at the side of the house, backyard and garage. All of these run on the $50 solar panel and have been amazing... If you are looking for one beyond the doorbell, I strongly recommend the solar panel device over trying to hardwire.

Here's a new product from the tech show in Vegas, it's for towing trailers and makes your trailer appear invisible when you are towing, allowing the driver to see everything behind it.

Not sure if I would want to see this if I had a Ring. Ignorance is bliss sometimes.

Ummmm.

The system uses cameras placed on the rear bumpers of both the vehicle and the trailer to produce a single homogeneous image, which is fed to a small display placed in front of the driver

Police are looking for that guy. I wonder what they’d charge him with? Is doorbell licking a criminal code infraction or just a misdemenor?

Everybody thinks that when this next big worldwide pandemic comes and infects people it will either turn people into raging zombies or make them commit suicide. Maybe all it will do is make people lick intercom buttons.
