IR frequency sensitivity of Doorbell 2 vs. Elite vs. Pro

What is the IR frequency of the video door bell 2 vs the Elite? My elites are perfectly matched for IR supplemental floodlights, but the 2 barely has a response. Does the Doorbell Pro have the same IR response range as the Elites? I may want to upgrade.

    Totally different, @Round-Pond-Steve . Your Video Doorbell 2 senses motion like [this](https://community.ring.com/t5/Ring-Device-Tips-and-How-To-s/How-Your-Ring-Video-Doorbell-Senses-Motion/ba-p/1981), whereas your Video Doorbell Elite senses motion like [this](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360021842611-Utilizing-Motion-Zones-With-Your-Powered-Ring-Devices). Take a look at Riley's article, linked above, to assist with finding the best Motion settings for your Video Doorbell 2 and as always, we are more than happy to help!

      That wasn’t my question.

      Jennifer. Thanks for the response. The answer I was looking for was they are all 850 nm. So, the only difference I see is the frame rate of the Doorbell 2 changes come night mode, whereas the Pro and Elite doorbells keep a constant frame rate. I’ve ordered a Pro to replace my Ring 2 to see if this renders the 830 nm flooded area like my Elites do. Thanks. Steve
