Ring doorbell 2 Hardwired battery not working as it should!
hardwired-video-doorbell

My ring doorbell 2 , Just depended on the battery as it was not hardwired, and eventually decided I should get it hardwired.It was then I realised that Ring doorbell has faults in that; After hardwiring the ring doorbell 2, and expecting a trickle charge to the battery which would supply adequate power, however this was NOT the case, I had a fully charged battery and a display on my ring dash board displaying that my ring doorbell 2 was hardwired BUT to contradict my last statement it also displayed that my battery was critically low at 4%.I’ve tried contacting Ring support but to no avail.I have decided to suffer on with this awful product until the plan runs out where then I will change over to another product made by a competing reputable company.Also, I will NOT recommend this product to anyone.

    Hi @Reversadoor. What is the voltage rating for your doorbell transformer? Are you using a compatible Chime Kit? These are just a few factors that can regulate how your Doorbell receives its trickle charge. Another factor is the amount of use your Doorbell has in an average day. How many events/Live Views are you experiencing in an average day?
