Posted .Hi Curt.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.
Here at Ring, we believe that stronger communities are the key to safer neighborhoods. That is why we are driven to create products that help you protect what matters most at home and empower you to connect with your neighbors from wherever you are. Together, we’ll make neighborhoods safer!
We are pleased to read that you are enjoying the benefits of having a Ring security device installed! The Ring Alarm Contact Sensor (2nd Generation) is made up of two separate parts: the sensor and the magnet. When you hold the contact sensor and magnet together and then pull them apart, you should see the LED ring flash green just once and hear a small chirp tone from the base station. (Chirp tones are enabled by default.)
For your Ring Contact Sensor (2nd Generation) installation to work as designed, it's important to remember that:
You can mount your contact sensor around almost any part of your door or window.
The space between the contact sensor and the magnet must be 1 inch or less.
When you open the door or window, you see the LED flash green (and hear the chirp tone, if enabled).
There needs to be ½ inch of space around the sensor so you can slide it open to replace the batteries.
Avoid the side of the door with the hinges.
Skip areas close to a mail slot to prevent someone from reaching in and tampering with the sensor.
Avoid mounting on clear glass windows to prevent intruders from identifying your security measures.
Steel doors and aluminum door frames may occasionally cause interference for the contact sensor. Test the sensor on your door or window to determine if there are any issues.
Visit our support center for more information on the Ring Alarm Contact Sensor (2nd Gen).

||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Loved the compact of this add-on motion detector for my Ring system. Would be better if it could turn off when Ring system is set to DISARM. Somehow it is still active, just the notification is turned off. Will wait to see how the battery live...hope it will last at least a year.

That is why we are driven to create products that help you protect what matters most at home and empower you to connect with your visitors from wherever you are.

It sounds like your device is not performing as you expected. The Ring Alarm Contact Sensor expands your Ring Alarm system to secure each door and window in your home, and you can get alerts as soon as they open. Below are some steps to reset your Ring Alarm Contact Sensor:
Slide the Contact Sensor off its base. Ensure that the batteries are installed and that you are within three to five feet of the Base Station.
Use a pin, paperclip, or sim card ejector to press and hold the pinhole reset button.
After the LED light turns off, release the reset button.
Re-add the Contact Sensor to your Ring Alarm using the Ring app.

Synced perfectly with alarm system bundle

I would recommend this to a friendEasy to setup, recommend
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needs additional sensors for my new system and it was quick and easy to include these. Same as setting up the original ones.
I would recommend this to a friendSensors
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great items if you are looking to have a security system
I would recommend this to a friendGood deal but product itself could be better
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good deal on the 6-pack of door/window sensors if you need to expand your Ring Alarm system. As for the sensors themselves they are pretty good but a slimmer magnet would much easier to use. Ring sells them for an additional cost but should just make those standard.
