I have 2 Ring doorbells (Gen 2) that I am hard wiring to 1 transformer with *no chime.* My questions. 1) How many resistors do I need to add ( 1 or 2) 2) Where would the resistors go in the wire diagram I have seen the ring wired diagrams but there are none that have 2 doorbells and 1 transformer with resistors pictured ( no chime)

    Good question, @DBA! With this setup, you will want a resistor to exist on the wire run that goes to each Video Doorbell. Here is our [help center article](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003495766-How-to-Connect-Your-Ring-Video-Doorbell-2-Directly-to-a-Low-Voltage-Transformer-Without-a-Pre-existing-Doorbell-) showing an example for one Doorbell, in which repeating this on the wires running to your second Doorbell should be sufficient. If you are unsure on how to install the resistor or uncomfortable with such, we recommend consulting with a licensed electrician. I hope this helps! :)
