Q: QuestionI have a wired doorbell that rings in two different locations (on two different floors). My transformer says it is 16 V and 30 VAC. If I wire the Pro 2 in place of my old doorbell, will it ring my original chimes when the ring button is pressed?

Asked 4 years ago by jel541.

• A:Answer Hello jel541, Great question. The Ring Video Doorbell Pro 2 requires a hardwired connection, and a transformer that ranges at 16-24VAC, 50/60HZ. If you connect the Ring Pro to your hardwired connection, it may ring your original chime.

Q: QuestionCan wireless door bell extenders be used with Ring doorbell pro2?

Asked 4 years ago by Johnne.

• A:Answer I may be misunderstanding your question, so I apologize in advance. But if you are speaking of the Chime devices, then yes those are most certainly and nice added addition to your doorbell. However, they are not required if you have Alexa echo devices or Alexa Show devices already on your home. You can set up your doorbell to have the “chime” sounds a doorbell typically makes, come thru loud and clear from your Alexa devices.
