if you hardwire it do you still need the battery? null

Hi Jolly. Thanks for asking. Yes, the Ring Video Doorbell (2nd Generation) has a built-in battery that is required for the device to function. It can be hardwired to an existing doorbell system or transformer with 8–24 VAC, 40 VA max, and 50–60 Hz for continuous charging.

All the best, Nicole from Ring.

I hardwired mine with the battery in it. I am not sure if there is an option to remove the battery. The battery stays charged, and it will act as a backup in case of a power outage.

There are two types. Hardwire and battery. Just buy the hardwire one and you wont have to deal with a battery.

“if you hardwire it do you still need the battery?”
