A:AnswerHi Devhog,
One of my favorite parts about owning a Ring system is that the experience is completely customizable by you, for your specific home security needs. When considering adding more to your home security, it's important to factor in what your wifi environment can support, and what you can do to improve it, if necessary.
I wanted to provide you with a full comprehensive comparison guide of all the Ring Cameras we have to offer, so you may make a well-informed decision on the future of your home security: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004687606-Ring-Security-Camera-Product-Comparison

A:AnswerHello curious,
Yes, the Echo Show can be set up to broadcast videos when motion is detected and doorbell rings take place. To start using two-way communication, just say "Alexa, answer [camera or doorbell name]" or "Alexa, talk to [camera or doorbell name]." You can also enter a Live View by saying "Alexa, show me [camera or doorbell name]." If you wish to speak, you can unmute that mic to start a conversation. Here is a helpful article regarding the Alexa Skill integration with your Ring Doorbell 3: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003247146-Integrating-Amazon-Alexa-supported-Devices-with-Ring-Devices.

A:AnswerI installed the ring doorbell without using the existing door bell wiring. I linked the ring doorbell to Alexa, so "she" announces throughout the house when someone touches the ring doorbell button. Works really well, because we can get the Alexa notifications while in the backyard using the Alexa dots.
A:AnswerHi,
Yes the Ring Video Doorbell 3 is designed to be installed outdoors. The Ring Video Doorbell 3 is water resistant and has an operating temperature range of-5°F to 120°F (-20°C to 48°C).

A:AnswerHi Jenn13, The Ring Video Doorbell 3 has all the same great features of the Ring Video Doorbell and Ring Video Doorbell 2. The difference is it adds a number of new features on top of them. These include: Dual band wifi that work on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz networks, 1080p HD video with night vision, Two-way talk with noise cancellation and Privacy zones.
Thank you,

A:AnswerHello RH,
If you are not hardwiring this device to your existing doorbell wiring and home's chime kit there are a couple of options for audio notifications. One option is using a Ring Chime: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/204647994-Ring-Chime-Information. The other option is using Alexa devices: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003247146-Integrating-Amazon-Alexa-supported-Devices-with-Ring-Devices.
