    Easy to set up, solar panel installed after, no working, but just a bad seed, assume new one will work. Wish worked with my touch deadbolt, but my bad, I didn’t research. Maybe soon from what I’ve heard.

    This device makes a great product in the form of Ring doorbell even much better. This does away with the need to remove the chargeable battery. I’m totally satisfied with the performance so far.

    this charger worked for only a few weeks. now it’s not working at all the Ring Team told me the “off brand” solar chargers don’t work well with their system. On the phone now to get it replaced with a Ring solar charger. Best Buy recommended this one as a replacement product when the other was out of stock. I don’t think it’s good quality
