“Does the battery act as backup if it is hardwired?”

1-2 of 2 Answers

• Hello CJSSEW, Great question. A hardwired Ring Video Doorbell does not actually use the power from the wire or the solar charger power to run its operations. It relies on the battery for that. The trickle charge the Ring Video Doorbell 3 gets from being hardwired or the solar charger is solely used to charge the battery. In order to maximize the lifetime of the battery, the Ring Video Doorbell 3 waits for the battery to hit below 90% before using the wired power to recharge the battery. For more information please see our help center article: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038856311-Charging-the-Battery-for-Your-Ring-Video-Doorbell-3. For any additional questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out on our community forum at https://community.ring.com/. We look forward to hearing from you soon! Thank you, Jamila with Ring.
