There are a great many wireless doorbells available but few with a range of up to 450M or 1476 feet that this one has. That aside this is a well made but otherwise pretty standard wireless two ringer doorbell.
The kit arrived packed in a simple but robust with all the important information about the product clearly printed on it. This is far better than the plain box too often used by budget products these days.
Inside the box was the bell push with battery pre-installed, two ringer units with UK plug, a small screwdriver, double-sided sticky pad mount and a User Guide. The User Guide is well written, nicely printed and in good English. I enclose a copy at the end of my unboxing video.
Build quality seems fine. Everything is made of plastic but feels well well made and robust. Nothing seems flimsy or liable to fail anytime soon. The bell push is IP44 waterproof, which means it is fine even in all but the heaviest rain but does not immerse it in water or train water jets on it. The bell push has a proper clicky easy to see illuminated button. The doorbell uses a non-standard 12V/23A battery of a type I have seen before but that is not always easy to find. Remember to take note of the battery model before searching for a replacement. The ringer unit has an integral UK plug and again seems well made and robust. On the side are a Volume button and Ring Tone button to select which of the thirty ringer sounds you want. The tradition Ding-Dong default is still the best in my opinion. On the front of the ringers are bright blue LEDs that illuminate when ringing, handy for the hard of hearing. The LED's are bright but not too much so, as some rivals are. The ringer units are not waterproof so don’t be tempted to use it on an outdoor socket. What is the included mini screwdriver used for? It is to prise open the bell push box to access the battery.
Mounting it was very simple as could be using the double-sided sticky mount. If you plan to mount onto an uneven surface t..
