Easy for a senior woman!

I’m a 66 year old woman. I crawled into the attic and installed it. Does that tell you how easy it was?!?! Thanks for attention.

Perfect for Ring Doorbell Pro

When my two Ring Doorbell Pros mysteriously started going offline when the weather turned colder, I eventually learned the electrician installed doorbell transformers that only provided 10 volt-amps (not the recommended 30 volt-amps). I ordered these to replace the two underpowered transformers since these provide 40 volt-amps, and I’m glad I did. The transformers were very easy to install - just swapped them out with the existing transformers, fastened to electrical box with the provided…

Pros
  • Easy install. Worked like a champ as the previous reviews suggested..
Cons
  • Transformer may produce a noticeable or distracting electrical hum or buzz

Great for Ring Pro doorbell installation

Easy to install once I found the already installed transformer.Used this for a Ring Pro Doorbell.Clear instructions we also provided.Turn off the electricity to the circuit you install this on before you start replacement.

Pros
  • Worked fine once I realized that the output was in AC, not DC. Duhh!
Cons
  • Transformer may be susceptible to damage from power outages or electrical spikes

Perfect for Ring doorbell

Works with my Ring Pro

Had some trouble with my Ring Pro recently. the power couldn't stay on. Found out it was a transformer problem, so I bought this. So far, the Ring has been solid.

Pros
  • Unit has an integrated ground wire. See to install quality product
Cons
  • Product may not be visually appealing or well-designed compared to competitors

I installed a Eufy doorbell system on my house. The old door bell was 16v so it had to go, only the 40v would work. I searched several transformers and the VIIVRIA was smaller than most of the transformers I looked at so it fit into my pre-exisiting electrical box without a problem. This transformer works great and easy to install with the Eufy. I highly recommend it.

Pros
  • Good
Cons
  • Customers may have to spend additional money on professional installation

Incredibly thin gauge wire

The description of this transformer is basically the opposite of its actual qualities.It said "extra thick” wire, well compared to jewelry wire maybe?Pictured is a competitor that was $3-4 more that was actually a good gauge wire with a complete metal surround vs cardboard and plastic of the reviewed unit.Glad I bought both and glad I returned this product.

Pros
  • It worked
Cons
  • May require additional parts or installation accessories not included with the product

Good device, Easy to hook up

I actually ordered 2 of these back on Prime Day for a pair of Ring Doorbell Pros I also bought. It took me a couple of weeks to get around to instal them but it was a breeze and did exactly what was needed. After a month one did die but I just chalk that up to luck of the draw like anything else.

Pros
  • Used for Ring doorbell.
Cons
  • Some users may find the transformer difficult to install due to its size or weight

Worked perfectly, and not noisy like my old transformer!

I had purchased this product to replace one that I bought at a big box store to power my Ring Doorbell Pro. Technically the one from the store worked fine with the Ring, but it emitted a loud buzzing electrical sound from it that kept me up at night (our transformer is located in our closet). This one is silent, and as you can see from the picture it is way beefier and heavier than the old one, lending me confidence in it’s construction and quality. In case if you were wondering, it has the…

Pros
  • ‎No
Cons
  • May not be intuitive or easy to use for users without technical knowledge

Worked great with my Nest Hello Doorbell

Although the first transformer arrived damaged due to shipping, the replacement was very easy and quick. The second one worked great and runs my two Nest Hello Doorbells. I used this thermostat to replace my old doorbell system that was weak and made both my Ring doorbell and my Nest doorbells to work intermittently.

Pros
  • Easy to use and easy to install.
Cons
  • Product may not be suitable for older homes with outdated or incompatible wiring

Part quit with in a week.

Transformer didn’t last a week then it quit. I had not the time to check it over and I’m out of my return window now. Guess I’ll be buying another from a different location

Pros
  • WHAT YOU GET- 1. High-quality accessory 2. 180 Days money-back guarantee 3. Professional customer service. VIIVRIA has a professional team which has been specialized in designing and manufacturing transformers for a few years, improving technologies to meet consumers' needs.
Cons
  • May require professional installation for those who lack electrical knowledge or experience

Needed a more beefy transformer for Ring doorbell.

Burned up two transformers in two years so this time around I decided to install a more powerful transformer and decided on this one. It’s only been operating for a couple of weeks but so far so good.

Pros
  • Worked as described, required if your doorbell does not have output of 16vDC at 30 milli-amps.
Cons
  • Some customers may experience delays or difficulties when contacting customer service for technical support

Works perfectly with Eufy doorbell

Our initial 16V transformer was insufficient to power our new video doorbell system. This 24V transformer arrived on time, was easy to install, and has worked wonderfully with our Eufy system.

Pros
  • Boosts performance: Our transformer is designed to deliver consistent, high-quality power to your smart home devices, which can help improve their overall performance and responsiveness
Cons
  • Some users may prefer a transformer that is more eco-friendly or energy-efficient

Worked with my Ring video doorbell!

Got a Ring video doorbell but my prior transformer wasn't putting out enough power to make it work properly. I purchased this one and changed them out and the doorbell works perfect. If your current transformer is underpowered you should give this one a try.

Pros
  • Arrived on time, easy to install if you know what you’re doing.
Cons
  • Transformer may require additional wiring or equipment for proper installation

Great for Video Doorbells

High Quality, 26V 30VA transformer that solves the problem of my new Video Doorbell blowing the original transformer. The original feed only a bell and a fireplace gas log ignitor. No problems with this unit. And it was delivered as promised!PS.The Blue Tape in the photo are my wire IDs I'll remove them later.

Pros
  • Does what it’s supposed to. Keeps my thermostat charge
Cons
  • Some users may find the transformer difficult or confusing to install

This transformer is a must if you have a Video dorbell.

This 24 volt , 40 VA (watts) transformer is a must if you have recently installed a video doorbell and your existing analog chime doesn't sound every when the doorbell button is pressed.Though the video doorbell manufacturers say their product works with existing doorbell wiring and transformers, typically 16 volts -10VA (watts), what they don't tell is that the unit will alert the app on your phone but it draws so much power it will not sound the existing analog doorbell every time . This…

Pros
  • Transformer works great, runs cool. Good lead length.
Cons
  • May be more expensive than other similar products on the market

Good for video doorbell requiring higher power

I installed a new Eufy doorbell wired version and while setting it up it said that my current transformer is not capable of delivering the voltage that doorbell will require so I researched into doorbell transformers and I found multiple items with pretty much every item had a couple of scary reviews so I decided to try Wearhouse version (got it around 1/2/ price) so that I don't have to bother to return even if transformer fails in a short time. So far the transformer is still working for me…

Pros
  • Versatile compatibility: Our 24V 40VA transformer works seamlessly with a wide range of smart home systems, including Honeywell, Nest, Sensi, and Ecobee. This means you can power up your home automation with just one device, saving time and effort
Cons
  • May not be compatible with certain types of doorbells or intercom systems

Arrived DOA - my new review

Product took in 120 volts and gets hot quickly. Output was 0 volts. It was dead on arrival. Will return it. That's my feedback.

Pros
  • Supports multiple devices
Cons
  • Transformer may not be covered by a generous or long-lasting warranty

Running two Ring Pro doorbells

So far so good. I upgraded to this transformer to run two ring pro doorbells. Both are functional and reporting "good" health in the ring app. It does get a little warm to the touch, not hot, but i would keep that in mind when installing. Mine is on a cement wall.

Pros
  • MULTIPLE USAGES - A device you could use for both doorbells and transformers, 24 Volt transformer can be also used for multiple thermostats and doorbells, offering plenty of power for single or multiple devices (2-3) at the same time.
Cons
  • May not be suitable for apartments or rental properties without landlord approval

Powers my EUFY doorbell

This powerful 24V transformer should be the first choice instead of the 16V ones for door bell cameras. Powers the old doorbell and the video doorbell without any issues.

Pros
  • Fit to metal box with 1/2 knockout without modifications. A direct replacement for my old transformer.
Cons
  • Limited compatibility with certain systems and devices
