Ring Doorbell 2 hardwired and battery life draining
My hardwired Ring Doorbell 2 shows my battery is at 47%, i have never dropped below 99%. Power tests fine why is my battery losing life if it is hardwired?

MSame exact problem!! My battery would last for almost a month on full charge but then we switched to hardwire in April. The device started to drain frequently in October and has been lasting only a week at Max before it needs charged again. I wonder if this is due to a firmware update?! Similar to Apple’s iPhone battery issues??

I've the same issue; disabled snapshots, disabled Advanced Motion Detection, attempting to reset the device back to the way it was last winter. I didn't have excessive battery drain then, despite the extreme cold too. This winter I received a low battery email and warning. I agree with the others, the new features introduced by Ring are causing those users where temperatures play a factor to have a faster battery drain than a low voltage trickle charge can complete. Like the others, I'm wondering why I bought this doorbell to hardwire- what was the point when it is superseded by battery usage? Love the hardwired floodlight cams, but this electrical setup doesn't seem viable any longer. Disappointed.

Hello everyone, I have had my ring doorbell pro 2 for a few months now and out of the blue the battery started to drain I have it hardwired to the house and prior to using it I did a complete charge and the battery normally always stays charged. Any suggestions I took the battery out last night and did a charge for about 3 hours and right now it's at 46%
