I have several existing Ring devices. I bought both the Smart Wired and Battery Ring Floodlights. I love the wired floodlights, but NOT the battery floodlights. Why ? Because the battery floodlights use 4 D cells and not the rechargeable Ring battery. Also a big negative, it doesn’t have solar charging capabilities. I bought rechargeable D cell batteries but I’m already having to climb up and down the ladder to manually recharge them. Until Ring changes this, avoid buying it for now. The lighting is adequate, range of directing the lights is better than the Wired device, and setting it up was easy.

The Ring smart light is a nice alternative if you don’t have any existing wiring for a light fixture on your home. So I chose to go with this battery powered version. It takes 4 D batteries and mounts very easy. It took me all of 15 minutes to get this mounted on exterior of my home. Each light looks like it has 3 led diodes. To be honest it is not as bright as traditional floodlights but I understand this being that it is battery powered. The light itself is nice, serves its purpose and the sensor is very accurate. I get updates on my phone when it detects movements and when the light is triggered. Even in the daytime when lights aren’t triggered it’ll still send you a notification, which I like. It’s good to know when there is movement around your home. This light will also integrate with other Ring accessories. Overall it could be a little brighter but it does its job for the convenience factor.
