    It fit the Ring perfectly. I bought this because I didn't want to have to charge the Ring and I didn't have wires for a wired device. Easy install. Only downside is that I couldn't get it anchored into my siding and it's not flush to the house.

    The ring doorbell i have does not fit the solar panel i bought. I called ring and the solar panel for my model was discontinued. However they do sell one that is universal and sits away from the doorbell. This allows for better positioning for sunlight. Everything was great with the panel until i went to place the doorbell in it and it just didn’t click into place and again it turns out it was the wrong model. But it was easy to set up

    This has helped with the battery but it’s important to make sure you have the right style for your doorbell. Also, only concern I have is how it’s changed in what and how things are picked up with the camera now. Tried to reset and double check all settings. They are the same just now does not always pick up and alert.

    I bought this only to figure out I had an older generation doorbell that was not solar compatible. I bought a new doorbell to fit this charger. Setup was very easy.

    Gets the job done, instructions could be better for install. I think I was missing screws, as they screws used didn't work the best. Overall I got it to work, but it took some adjusting to get the ring doorbell to latch onto the solar case.

    Not to shabby, it does hold up its end of the bargain as far as keeping it charged. Mounting wasnt to hard as well.

    Wesserstein mountable solar panel for Ring doorbell. So far it’s been great I put in new batteries at the time we mounted the solar panel & the battery has been full, it gets direct sunlight all day, even on a gloomy day it has stood charged. Con it took about 20 mins to install & we had to drill holes in the house because it is stucco we had to go out & purchase the drill bit size we needed, once the holes were placed it was fast & easy we just screwed the wire prongs to the back of the ring & placed screws back into the ring using the original screw driver that came with our ring when we purchased it.

    The Ring doorbell that I have faces directly eastward and is unable to be hardwired since there was no previous doorbell at that entrance. The Wasserstein solar charger should be the perfect solution. This gets about four hours of direct exposure every day. What more could you ask for? This is a great way to avoid having the down-time while the Ring battery is recharging indoors — no more need to do that. Double-check to make sure your Ring doorbell is compatible (there are a number of variations) and you’re good to go.
