    Geek Squad did a great job installing. It took 3 times to get the right solar panel. Best Buy needs to get some more knowledgeable sales people.

      Hi,

      We’re sorry to hear about your experience with the product and we apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you. It is recommended to place the solar charger under direct sunlight for a few hours before connecting the doorbell. This will allow the solar charger to harvest solar energy to keep your doorbell charged. If this did not help, please get in touch with us via email at contact@wasserstein-home.com and we will resolve the issue.

      We are truly sorry that the item that you received did not function as promised. We understand your disappointment, and apologize for any inconvenience that this may have caused you.

      Before we ship any product, it undergoes several stages of quality checks. It is our intention to provide only the highest quality items to our customers, and we regret that your product slipped past our quality measures.


      Please know that our solar charger, if placed in maximum sunlight exposure, can significantly prolong the battery life of your Ring doorbell and eliminate doorbell downtime due to charging. We do recommend that you charge your Ring Doorbell to 100% before installation to ensure maximum charging efficiency.

      Please also note that the charging speed varies according to sunlight exposure (direct vs. partial). Therefore, it will charge 1% of the battery every 2 to 5 hours.
      If this does not resolve your issue, kindly let us know. Please get in touch with us via email at contact@wasserstein-home.com and we will resolve the issue.

      Best regards,
      Your Wasserstein Customer Success Team

      Hi,

      We’re sorry to hear about your experience with the product and we apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you. The light on Ring Doorbell 2 will flicker blue when connected to our Solar Charger only in the presence of sunlight. This flickering indicates that Doorbell
      2nd Generation is being charged. If this did not help, please get in touch with us via email at contact@wasserstein-home.com and we will resolve the issue.
