Works Great – No More Power Issues!
I got this hardwired transformer to use with my Ring wired video doorbell, and it’s been working perfectly. Installation was pretty simple—just make sure you’re comfortable with basic wiring (or get some help if you’re not), and you're good to go.Once it was set up, my doorbell powered on right away, and I haven’t had a single issue since. No more low voltage warnings or random disconnects—it’s just been solid and reliable.If you’re installing a Ring doorbell and want a power source you can count on, this transformer does exactly what it should. Super happy with it!

New Transformer for Ring Doorbell
My home was built in 1970 and I am fairly sure the transformer was the original one. While it served the doorbell for the house for 50 years, it was just not beefy enough to deal with the additional power requirements of an always on doorbell camera system like the new Ring doorbell I bought, so I went with Ring suggestion and bought their own brand of transformer.Install was pretty smooth...was able to screw onto flat baseplate with the plastic nut on the back and it was off to the races! No wiring changes needed (other than replacing the chime and installing doorbell).Seems to be working just fine, powering the chime and the new Ring doorbell. Not sure it will last 50 years, but hopefully I can get 10.

Doing its job
I will give an update on this product, after a few weeks have passed. I installed it same day it arrived. It was actually easier to install then I thought it would be. The original transformer was put in my condo in the 80’s when it was built. It was rated at 10V, 5VA. I had the “level 3” output and “poor” transformer with a reading of 10V. My mechanical door bell chime was not working since the ring was draining all the juice. Apparently there was not enough voltage to power the mechanical bell with the ring installed. When I upgraded to this transformer recommended by ring…. Let me just say a night and day difference. My mechanical bell now works and there is no delay, the notifications I get them instantly! I have all the features as well; such as night vision color, the led light on the ring doorbell button is now on. (before it would never turn on even during night time) The speaker and mic sound louder and clear. The video quality is also better. After I installed the transformer, I waited about half a day then rebooted my doorbell through the app. (even though I did not need too, I immediately received 16V rating but I wanted to be sure, just incase) So far its perfect. I will update this review as time goes by. Also, just a tip. Make sure you continue to check that you have the latest ring door bell app update. I noticed that ring updates their app like every other day and also ensure your ring doorbell has the latest update. The transformer does run “hot” but its not really that much of a difference. I can still touch it with my fingers but its a higher output in voltage so it’s expected, yet nothing to worry about.Update 4 months later: transformer still going strong and working as expected! But now my mechanical door chime has a slight buzz I heard it’s common if you put a high output transformer. I know it’s my mechanical doorbell because if I shut the breaker off for the doorbell the buzzing stops. It doesn’t bother me and it’s not loud but I can hear it when I walk by the mechanical doorbell chime when there is no noise in my place. Not sure what’s causing it or how to fix it as I have the ring power pro connected to it as well.

This transformer was necessary because the Ring system is underpowered and does not work well
Sorry to say Ring, Just not a good system. And this transformer is equivalent to a Band-Aid on a gunshot wound. And here is why…I really do not like giving a bad review. I guess this is obvious if you look over my reviews. My brother purchased for me (2) Ring Floodlight Cam Wired Pro with Birdseye view and 3d motion, a Ring Video Doorbell Pro 2 "best in class with cutting edge features 2021 release", and a Ring indoor cam compact plug in HD camera, as a housewarming gift for my new home. Yes Extravagant. I thought with this state of the art equipment ,(supposedly easy homeowner hook-up) which I had my handyman who is licensed install, would be wonderful, reliable and secure. I was wrong.These items in a very small (under 900 sq. ft., wood frame house) with a brand new 2022 edition wifi router and high speed internet loses connection multiple times a day, and becomes USELESS! When they lose power, you cannot reconnect them unless you are at the location of the camera, and can push a button on the top of the camera/floodlight to restart the action of reconnection. So how exactly is this going to protect your home when you are away? Answer. It is NOT. Also, if you want real assistance with the Ring system, that is not really forthcoming, because all they can tell you to do is, push the button on the top of the camera and reconnect to the wifi network.Truly a system not meant to be used by anyone who needs reliable surveillance, or security whey they are away, or anyone who has children coming home as latchkey kids, and wants to be sure they are secure when they come home alone. Imagine my unhappy realization during a storm when the camera on the back of my house, roughly 20 feet away from the wifi router, and the Ring Doorbell cam, both lost wifi connection, this while the wifi speed test on my cell phone and laptop revealed the following -Ping 24ms Jitter 8ms Download 114.7Mbps and Upload 36.0 Mbps. I called Ring only to have the guy tell me I needed to yes if necessary in the rain storm to restart my Ring outdoor cam, climb on a ladder and push the button on the top of the cam to reconnect it to wifi. Obviously this was not an option.Clearly this "state of the art": equipment needs some more artistic creativity. If this was not a gift, I would have already returned it. I am not sure what the outcome will be, but this transformer I had to purchase to boost the power of an old underpowered doorbell, is a joke. This Transformer is not the answer to the problem that is a poor system, and does not answer the problem of the two “state of the art cameras” that also lose connectivity while there is a strong stable wifi signal. This appears to be the selling of additional equipment to try to prop up a bad system. It is the equivalent of a band-aid on a gunshot wound. They are going to need either a new system or a lot more band-aids.
