Did you not use a resistor between the transformer and the ring?

Nice video IF you are using a chime with the Ring. How ever the Ring is supposed to run on a 24VAC 40 watt transformer, not 16VAC. I used the 16 VAC wall wart with my first one and it didn't last long at all. A 16VAC transformer means it's running on lower voltage than it designed for. Thats not good for electronics. Think of the effect brown outs have on electronics anf light bulbs. It will cause the Ring to burnout sooner. Finding a chime that runs on 24VAC isn't that easy but can be found. However the Ring works on/with the Ring Show as well as your phone and it can be used as the ringer for the door bell and showes you who is at the door at the same time. Great for the home if you don't carry your phone with you 24/7. The thing is that no where in the info packet provided does it state you need to install a 25 Ohm, 50 watt resistor in line with the Ring when using the transformer. That little jumper in the kit isn't one of those and muct be bought separately. JFYI

Dude you’re gonna get sued for giving people illegal electrical advice. 😂 this installation is WRONG!

Totally left out chime wiring?

Good vid. Just what I needed. Recommend you try voodoo ranger juice force next.

I would place the transformer in an area inside the house like a closet or an area where you can hide it, if available, because you don’t want to go back to the attic to replace it or work on it, especially if you live in a hot climate state like Florida.

Your neutral wire should be looked at again it isnt good to have exposed copper showing under the wirenut you should consider using a red instead of a yellow.

Btw it's Licensed Electrician and the Transformer rating is 30VA or Volt Amps, you should take notes before you do a video.

This shows like it being waaay easier than it was. i had glue and metal mesh to deal with

Dont want a door bell

We ended up exchanging this model for the slimmer version kzbin.infoUgkx0jZ_lGlDVJhDnmagEU8gn47cmfPNlLQU because it was too wide for the only door trim area that made sense to mount it on. However, we should have just noted the dimensions prior to purchasing. Otherwise, we love the doorbell. It works perfectly, and the video is very clear, even at night.

Getting started is the hardest part….I want to use chipper so I’m gonna look for your kitchen floor vid where you say you use the hammer drill…can’t find that vid beaded upon titles of each vid ?….where is it ?

Would it not be easier to just buy a 24v plug in adapter and run those wires to the doorbell?

Foreign countries is 220v, is the transformer capable?

So the ring don’t come with a transformer

KZbin should have blocked this video. Like the others have said, you can't open splice wire anything in the US or Canada. Just proof you can learn to do things the right or wrong way on KZbin. Dude didn't even state he's not an electrician and could be liable for accidents/fires resulting from this.

I am not an electrician. Folks he should have used a junction box to join wires together. What he did was wrong. DO NOT DO THIS UNLESS YOU WANT TO BURN DOWN YOUR HOME. Hire a professional.

I had to rewatch the video about five times to figure out you were splicing the new wire with both ends of the outlet wire that you cut. And then you ran the new wire that was spliced in to the other two ends outlet, to the ring device with the wall. Right

I seriously thought this just mounted on the wall and would give me video footage. this is extremely advanced for my understanding and I feel like I regret making this purchase for security. My house is old and I am not an electrician.

What size wire??

Men where is your j box not code

Why did you drill two holes into your house? Lol

🗑️

Lost me at no junction box.

Awful. You can't run unshielded wire through combustibles and must have all wire connections within a junction box for safety reasons!

U made it look easy, I wish u could install mine for me

Where did you find the wall mount that you used? The one that came with my installation kit from Ring only mounts directly to a 4" junction box but I am installing directly to a wall like you did.

You dog 😍

Electrical noob here: could i just wire into an outdoor outlet on my porch and run over to the doorbell?

You showed two wires (white and red) go from the transformer to the outside Ring. But the white from the transformer didn't go outside, it went to the chime correct?

How Can He Sleep At Night Knowing He Has That Wire In The Attic Like That ? ? ?

Incomplete video, doesn't show how you ran the wire

I'd recommend using lever nuts (wago). This is a more. Modern wire nut to use and you can have 2, 3, 4 or more holes to allow expansion if you ever want to repeat this with other devices

You should remove this video. This is wrong and dangerous in so many levels.

We cant hear you! Nice stupid music though so annoying! Just stop the vides

Junction boxes for all exposed wiring.

"the video cut out" aka the original drilled hole for the wires was in an impossible spot to mount the camera 🤣

This wrong in so many levels. Why not just connect the new wires straight out the electrical outlet. Saves time and the need of a junction box. Smdh 🤦🏻 *You might’ve been drinking before installation

you literally could have just opened the outlet junction box and spliced there.

One of my favorite beers as well. Cheers!

Is their a limit to how many ring door bells u can connect with that transformer??

I love your dog 🐶

your voice is too low for the music, when the music starts it blows up my speakers. good video tho

Wowza huge 300.15 violation😬

Thanks for the vid & 👍🏼 for the Boodoo IPA too. on of my favorite

So many code violations in this video. First, the junction box should be on the outside of the house, second, pretty sure you can't just cut and splice in the middle of the run and that you would have to have the splices inside the outlet box. This is actually bad information and a guide on how to do it wrong.

Is the camera on the lights moveable or does it only face forward?

Damn I have brick

How u insert the wire? How did u pull out? U left out important clips?
