A:AnswerYes, I owed owned this and it worked great after being hit with a severe tropical storm here in New Orleans and we receive rain a lot with high winds so basically no matter your home home you live in down here, your doorbell will get wet.
For the price I was SHOCKED of the video quality and the all the settings and options the app offered. Mine was misplaced when I moved and will be purchasing one of the same models tomorrow for my new apartment I have!!!
A:AnswerIt's 2 way with the option of wireless or hardwired.
Ours is hardwired from original wiring. When doorbell is activated, the house doorbell chimes and seconds later, our phone chimes also (also with notification that someone is at our door).
A:AnswerI had the same issue. The answer is yes. Which is kinda crazy.Then you will have to go through the wired setup to make the doorbell work. I actually called tech support about this. It’s still a great doorbell.
A:AnswerIm not sure what you mean ? …but Im assuming you’re asking can you mute video notifications ….? I mean yes but ,not actually you can mute them or disable them altogether but you can’t just use it as a doorbell without it giving you some video feedback that would defeat your whole purpose in buying it but its definitely a great purchase
A:AnswerThe wording "wired or wire free" is very deceiving from the sales point. The batteries are the only power source for the blink door bell. The wiring is just a connection so that your old bells can ring when the blink bell button is pressed. You are looking at replacing your batteries often and the sales pitch is deceiving as if the blink bell is using your old wiring & voltage to work.
A:AnswerThey don’t have receivers per se it is connected to Wi-Fi any thing you have connected to the Internet that you can install the Alexa app on will work so it’s not dedicated to a particular unit you can have multiple smart phones or Eco units around your house and they were all interact with it at the same time.
A:AnswerTo answer your question, use an old Alexa. You can hook up Alexa as your door chime. That’s it. Nothing else will work. Amazon did this on purpose to promote their more expensive Ring system.
