Drill bit supplied in Ring Install Kit? (Specifications QUESTION)
For my physical install of the Ring Video Doorbell on my brick house I have a conern that the drill bit provided by Ring won't do the job. Now; I have not tried it yet but i just doesn't look like it could drill through anyting unfortunately.... LOLThe drill bit has a "6" and a "15/64" on it. Can anyone verify that is indeed the typical or correct size drill bit for the supplied anchors? Thanks

UPDATE: ok, even though the "test drill hole" seemed to pass (that is it "started" a hole in the brick), I am unable to get the bit to drill any further into the brick at the mounting location. After 3+ minutes of drilling the first hole, it's not drilling any deeper than the initial 1/8" or so!

Your kit came with a drill bit? I just called because I couldn’t find one in the box and was told the kits don’t come with them.

Mine came with a blue security screwdriver but there’s no drillbit — also you’re going to have issues drilling into masonry if you don’t have a hammer drill. I was just seeing if it was lodged inside the ring or attached to something and I’m missing it.

I started a "test hole" at another location on the brick and it was working (very slow), but maybe this WILL work.. Took about 45 seconds to drill first approx. 1/8"-3/16" depth..
