We'd skip this option. How a Video Doorbell WorksWhen you push the button on a traditional doorbell, the action closes a circuit to ring a chime inside your home. Video doorbells are a bit more complex. When you push the button on one of these devices, the doorbell's camera sends a video feed to your smartphone over Bluetooth or Wi Fi, and you can press a button in the app to talk to the person at the door over a two way speaker. Each doorbell supports ring alerts, which notify your phone when a person rings the bell, as well as motion alerts, which can be a little more hit or miss. How We Test and Rate Video DoorbellsWe self installed the video doorbells on houses in Massachusetts and California, and tested in real world conditions with friends and family ringing the bells day and night. We evaluated ease of setup, the design and features of the app, how well the app and doorbell kept us notified, and video and audio quality. We also factored in how much you'll pay for cloud storage to save the video. What to Look for When Buying a Video DoorbellPower Requirements: Doorbells typically require 16 volts or more to work.

Another owner noted that the mounting bracket is nonstandard, and it took a lot of effort to attach the smoke detector. "Alexa integration is pretty good," she write, "but you can't change the wake word, which is a problem if you have two installed within earshot of each other. And I kind of had to speak loudly to get its attention in a room with an air conditioner.
