Ring doorbell

[BlueMoonday]

Hi all,

I've ordered a wired one but don't have an existing doorbell to wire it in to. Am I OK to purchase a transformer cable to plug in to the mains and feed it directly to the ring doorbell?

That's exactly what I'm going to do with the Ring adapter kit.

Electrics can be tricky, plus you need an electrician to wire it up or your insurance will be null and void if you attempt it.

Save money on an electrician and just torch the place then claiming on the insurance; )

Yeah good shout actually, thank you. I will go with the safe option and use an electrician. Knew I should have gone with the wireless option haha

I’ve got the wireless one installed. It’s a nuisance constantly charging the battery up

At least they’ve brought their own booze, more than @bluemist would ever do
