    The ring floodlight camera works somewhat fine during the day but at night when we need it most it's been wasteful - no lights come on till you almost walk up to it. We had the Geek squard install it and it work fine for a week. Ring is useless as when you call them they can't figure it out - they say there sending a new floodlight which we have yet to receive. My opinion is save your money and look into some other devise . You will also need very strong internet which we have.

    Had trouble installing this item as the nuts they give you are barely long enough to reach the bolts. Ultimately had to have a professional who ended up using different hardware. Also this was mounted from above, not on a wall which does not allow much clearance to be able to get a good view of the driveway. I ultimately tried to return to Best Buy but they would not take it because it was outside of return period. Tried to return to Ring but they would not take it because I purchased at Best Buy. Ring did offer to exchange (which I will probably take them up on) with a wireless model that I can mount on a vertical surface. Lots of hassle and ultimately overpaid for what I ended up with.

    This product is fantastic when it works (which is in the daytime only now). This worked great for 10 months and then the lights started flashing like a strobe light. Ring wants to blame the wiring or the WiFi (working on the same wiring and WiFi for the 10 months). It is now useless at night and now I don’t have a light at my back door. I can not afford to keep shelling out $250 every 10 months for a new one.

    I purchased after a rash of car burglaries in the neighborhood. Install and set up was straight forward. My problem is this: the darn thing is too sensitive. Every night at about the same time, spiders start spinning webs which sets off the motion alerts. The alerts continue thru the night. I have adjusted the motion detection to the lowest setting and adjusted the zones to no avail. I now have the alerts shut off and I am not happy.

    The video quality was not as clear as I expected. The light length of time on does not appear to be adjustable, and is too short.

    All I really wanted was a spot with a motion sensor but a neighbor talked me into these. I bought two. I realized the audio and video features but stupidly assumed features like these can be turned off and on - and are controllable. I found out the hard way the audio is not. People can have private conversations even out of video range and the sound picks up. There is no way to mute the audio. Its all or nothing. Sorry I ever bought these.

    Ring flood lights are good for video but it keeps ring to much and having problems it comes on for no reason we paid so much money for electric man to keep taking them down and sending back it’s not really a good choice

    Don’t like how the light will flicker on and off all night even though there is no motion detected. Just randomly turns on and off
