Attaching the doorbell to the mount is a little difficult but once it locks into place it seems extremely sturdy. kzbin.infoUgkxxHZwMa8CsRjYhf9s4W8w0Dwm47uytWOp I replaced my regular doorbell with this and hard wired it in, using my existing wires and mechanical chime. It works perfect so far and integrates perfectly with my blink camera system. It also works seamlessly with Alexa

If you have a prime chime doorbell you don’t have to use the power kit and all that with the Ring or worry about having the right transformer. Makes everything way easier.

[@thomasking9221]

Thank you. The instructions with all these Ring products are pretty lame. I installed the whole house security system and decided to add the doorbell even though I have a front of house free-standing camera. This video made it so much easier to install.

[@charlesthomas6987]

Great video. What if you don’t have a chime box for the pro 2. Does ring sell a chime box or a full kit with a pro 2?

[@fiftyfabulous1775]

Do you have a video that shows how to install the corner mount?

[@odiebravo4543]

Did you change your transformer? I noticed in the video where you tested for voltage it was below the required voltage.

[@Bklynpimpstress]

Does this disable your house original chime? When connected?

[@RobertM949]

You should install that ring power “adapter” first and then the doorbell. That protects the doorbell from voltage spikes. Otherwise you risk damaging your ring camera before you even get it installed.

[@GranPuba]

Well the first thing you're supposed to do is flip the breaker. So you shouldn't be getting a spike through the line if you flip the brake or on the doorbell.

[@justinbraun3503]

Great video. You measured 11V in your linked video with the multimeter, but the Ring Pro 2 you identified is a min of 16V. Your ring pro 2 works on 11V? How does it work at night in the dark?

My new house doesn't have 3 terminals on the bell (no Transformer). Does it gets really hot??

[@fredthedude2]

Great video. Is this worth spending more money on over the Ring Doorbell Wired? I am doing a full renovation of my house, so I will put new wiring from the electrical transformer to the front door and use a Ring Chime. I don't have an existing old-school chime in my house.

[@mikesando7766]

Late, but how did it work out? Plan to do the same.

[@fredthedude2]

@@mikesando7766 Works like a charm! I bought the Ring transformer that converts my 230V power into 12V (I think) and had the electrician hook everything up inside my fuse box. Works really well, so nice that i dont have to worry about charging any batteries and the video quality is more than sufficient for me. Edit: Forgot which video this was connected to. I bought the Doorbell Wired version, and am really happy with the cheaper option

[@mikesando7766]

[@clisaa6974]

^ Do you have to install the power adaptor? I have an OG Ring, that we never used a power adaptor. We installed the ring replacing our old ring but it says transformer voltage poor and power input 3.

[@natalie7759]

Can i ask for working with existing chime for the Pro2 if it sounds your existing chime in the house when the buttons pressed on the Ring. I keep seeing yes and no on google, so im unsure if need to buy a chime or if the doorbell will sound in house as normal before installation. Thanks

[@tomnugent6525]

How high up is the doorbell on the door frame out of interest?

[@ricpaney]

Power adaptor is necessary ??? What about if I have wire straight to from panel to ring

[@lookforbriansjazz7832]

How do you know where the red or white wires went on your new Ring unit? Thanks!!

[@episcopas]

Let me clarify my question. There is AC wiring for a doorbell, but the previous owners installed a battery operated one. So, my questions about the white wires and what to do with them.

[@TrappedQue]

Does the chime power adapter comes with the Pro 2?

[@jesusc1834]

Does it matter which side the red and white cable is screwed on the ring doorbell?

[@miggonza25]

where can i buy the ring pro power kit v2?

[@earlisking]

Does it work if your doorbell wires are on the side of the house and not facing the front of the house?

[@rave2173]

Does this need a diode for a digital doorbell to play its full tone ?

[@ArtCardenas]

does the blue light turns on when motion detection or darkness? or only when pressed?

what does the power adapter do ?

[@steveo6715]

Thanks - perfect tutorial and allowed an easy installation.

[@xversacex]

Anybody able to please assist? What if I only have a doorbell transformer? It only has two prongs that have screws. How do I know which is "trans" or "front" (assuming I am supposed to install the ring power adapter to it)? Or is there no specific orientation, just as long as the power adapters prongs are mounted to each transformer prong? LoL not sure if I'm using the correct terminology. Issue was we have a Video Doorbell V4 which does not stand a chance in Canadian weather... Have to go with the Video Doorbell Pro 2 now.

[@bg4406]

You don't need to install the frame support for the camera? Other videos show 2 components getting bolted to the door

Is my existing, mechanical chime supposed to ring when pressing the Pro 2 doorbell button? Because mine doesn't. Everything else seems to be working though.

Do you have to install the ring power adapter? would it still work okay with out it? i have no intention on using the existing chime

[@42Slab]

Surprised nobody responded to you but for future installers with the same question, no you do not need the power adaptor unless your voltage is below the threshold of 16v after testing.

[@johnisaac566]

@@42Slab NOT TRUE. I actually read your reply before installing and my ring pro 2, it was getting hot and wouldn't connect and acting all weird. I called tech support. Told them I had 16 A/C volts at the door bell, they said it doesn't matter you have to use the power adapter. Hooked it up and it connected right away and didn't get hot anymore. Use it!!

[@dlyons1721]

My doorbell had power but couldn't connect to my internet. The suggestion was the router was too far away from the doorbell although it's only about 25 feet. Also the original wired doorbell chime didn't work. Is this related to the failure of the doorbell to connect to the internet?

[@LonestarTXDL]

I see on your video to check transformer voltage, you show yours is 11.48 (looks like the exact door and doorbell). Then this video you state that your transformer is sufficient for the 16-24 requirement for the ring pro 2. Did you upgrade the transformer or are you using the 11.48 transformer for this pro 2?

[@kr6277]

Recently installed the Ring video doorbell pro 2. We love it, but having issues with the transformer voltage reading in the Device Heath tab on the app. The pro 2 needs 16-24 volts and according to the Ring app, the voltage is around 16 which is good, but at times it drops to 15 volts and then I get a "poor" reading in the Device Health tab. Ring told me I probably needed a new transformer, however none of us can find it. My question is, if the voltage drops to 15 periodically, it that ok? If not, sounds like I'll need a totally different doorbell since we cannot locate the transformer. Any suggestions would be appreciated Thanks!

[@BlahBlahBlah12323]

I hooked up the ring doorbell, and turned the power back on. I heard the doorbell speak. Then, I had to turn the power back off because I forgot to install the power adapter. I did that, and now I have no power to doorbell and none in the lines that go to the chime. Did I just fry everything?

[@grumble555]

What is the purpose of the "Power Adapter"? Will it matter if the existing transformer is 10 VA?

[@OneHourSmartHome]

The Ring Pro 2 requires 16-24V AC. If your transformer puts out 16V - 10VA it may work however typically 16V 30VA is recommended like this transformer: amzn.to/33NlY0r The purpose of the power adapter/booster installed in the chime is to provide a reliable power supply / boost for the Ring Pro 2 because it uses more power than the typical battery powered Ring Doorbells like the Ring 4 Doorbell: amzn.to/3fnyzNh. If you have 10va it may work, but if you are worried it will not work and you don't want to replace the doorbell transformer the Ring 4 would work in that situation, however the Ring 4 video quality is not as good as the Ring Pro 2 Doorbell video quality. I just posted a review on the Ring 4 today: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eaO2aYWka52tsK8
