    Unless Ring fixes this issue, I'm tossing my ring door bell 2 for a different brand. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. Not happening Ring, see ya!

      Been using my Ring - Gen 2, for a little over a month now and the charger lightning icon has been visible and charging. Our Ring battery was hopping from anywhere around 50% to 75% and the power source has been hardwire throughout the first month of use. All of the sudden, the battery got to 100% and the hardwire power source was gone. The power source is now battery. Not sure what is going on. Nothing has changed. Weather has been in the high 90s so I doubt that's the cause.

        My Ring Doorbell 2 was showing hardwired yesterday and now showing battery powered. Nothing has changed on my end as far as settings. The temperature has been 70-90. The doorbell has not been touched. What is the issue and how do I fix it? I too had to change battery packs over the winter as it was too cold to hold a charge. This sounds like an all around issue for everyone right now.

          Is there any help for this yet? I have 2 ring doorbells and if this doesn't get fixed everyone will need to just purchase another doorbell. Something other than Ring products.

        Same issue. Have first gen doorbell, hardwired and showed hardwired in the app. Suddenly it shows battery and there is no lightning bolt on the battery so it is not charging. The doorbell does have the white glow around the button indicating it is getting power.
