Mechanical Chime w/Ring Power Adapter

Hello, Just a quick question with regards to the Ring power adapter. I have a Ring Doorbell Pro hardwired to a mechanical chime. I noticed that there is not enough power for the doorbell to function properly. I can't seem to locate the transformer, therefore I can't upgrade the power via new transformer. My question is, can I connect (hard wire) BOTH the mechanical chime and Ring power adapter together, or is it one or the other. Thanks,

Hi @CT22. If you are referring to the [Ring Plug-In Adapter (2nd Generation)](https://ring.com/products/video-doorbell-plugin-adapter-gen-2), then this will only be connected directly to your Pro. You cannot wire in a mechanical chime when using the Plug-In Adapter. Since you will no longer use your mechanical chime, you can use our [Ring Chime](https://ring.com/products/chime-gen2) to have an audible alert in your home when someone rings your Doorbell. You can also integrate [Ring with Alexa](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360048169011-Helping-Your-Ring-Devices-Work-With-Alexa) to have your Alexa devices announce when someone rings your Doorbell. I hope this helps.
