Review on πŸ”” Ring Video Doorbell Pro Compatible 16V 30VA Hardwired Door Chime Transformer by Paul Philippe

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Bought as an upgrade for Ring Doorbell Pro

I own several Ring products and have recently seen that one of the requirements for the Ring Doorbell Pro is a minimum 16V/24VA transformer. I've had a doorbell for about 2 months and I have a delay of about 4 seconds when someone presses the doorbell button until my internal ringer rings. I also have trouble understanding what people are saying at my door. The sound is distorted. I replaced my transformer in hopes that this would eliminate these issues. Also, some say they don't have any negative issues with Ring Doorbell Pro until they've used it for about 6 months. This transformer is rated above the requirements I have listed. It's 16V/30VA so for $20 it really isn't much, just make sure you're using the right transformer. Installation was pretty easy. My old transformer was at the bottom of the switch box. From the beginning to the end of the installation of the new device (see photo) it took about 10 minutes. I've had it installed for about 24 hours now, but I can't say it made any difference to my Ring Doorbell Pro. However, I'm glad I changed it for future editions. Again, at $20, it's worth a try.

Pros
  • Outstanding Design
Cons
  • So far so good
