A:AnswerNo, you either have to take the two screws off the bottom, lift the whole unit up and put it on a charger or hook it to the existing doorbell, and it will charge itself and you don’t have to do anything.
A:AnswerThe Ring doorbell would be a great option. It does not matter which version you purchase of the Ring doorbell, either version will do the job of keeping you protected. You can also add a good amount of devices to your Ring account. (I don't know the exact number off the top of my head, maybe up to 5 devices).
A:AnswerThe doorbell is the greatest thing ever for home protection. You can view your entrance way from anywhere no matter the distance from your home.
A chime sounds on hour phone whenever someone approaches our house. Simplest the greatest!!!!! I suggest the ring-doorbell 2. It has a pop out battery.

A:AnswerRING doorbell has a wall mount thay may be shimmed slightly to help provide greater angle. This may depend on whether you will hardwire it to exisiting doorbell or run on battery.
There is already great angular coverage when flush mounted. Consider holding your phone's camera at your mounting spot. Typically, the RING has a greater angular view. If you need greater flexibility or adjustability, you might consider one of the cameras or lights.
A:AnswerI have one but have not installed it because my phone and iPad makes a noise whenever something gets near it or activates it. A chime is not needed but will help extend the WiFi signal if you are having a weak signal from your router.
A:AnswerRING needs to be set up on local network. The APP on portable device then links to the RING doorbell.
Viewing and processing can slow down if WiFi connectivity to the RING or smartphone cell/WiFi signal is weak. However, RING alerts will be captured for viewing at your conveninece or with better connectivity.
A:AnswerThe RING has good angular coverage and can be mounted almost anywhere convenient. The RING device is about the size of a smartphone and the camera will typically have a broader view. To find the ideal spot, use your phone-camera to roughly determine physical space and desired coverage. Good luck.
