I quit the app, restarted, made sure I selected ringer pro and now I see the correct video. Explains why I was so confused.

<@UL8ACTGSF> lol, yes the old and new are totally different.

The cover was very hard to remove. Thought it was going to break in half

<@UL8ACTGSF> also the video doesn't show you how to pop the cover on and off easily. Having had to do it so many times now the easiest way is to put one thumb on the top black glass area and other on the bottom. The use the other fingers to pull while pressing down with your thumbs.

<@UL8ACTGSF> Hah! I was just typing the above to tell you that

I got one of those thingamadohickers that tells the voltage and measured at the wires for the front doorbell. The reading was 21.7 so I should be good?

<@UL8ACTGSF> oh cool, you had a multimeter. Yup you're good to go.

Welcome to Ring. Follow the instructions in the video to continue.

<@UL8ACTGSF> Congrats. Wasn't hard at all right? :grinning:

Not after watching the correct video. I am a visual learner.

Don't forget to setup your motion zones and link your chime if you bought one.  Device health will show you wifi strength and voltage. It will change at night when IR flips on.

Voltage shows as poor. Guess I need that other power thing.

<@ULME0UDS8> had mine for over a year now simplest thing ever

<@UL8ACTGSF> pop it in your chime box, will help regulate power. It will still work without it by the way as you see, but better to have it so power is consistent.

I removed it for now until the mason drilling can be done

<@U3XTHA74K> my whole neighborhood has them now. When we have those door to door solicitors my neighbors use that new warn your neighbors feature where they share the video with the whole neighborhood. Now I need to rig a little squirt gun turret on the eave and nail them when they show up.

<@UK6S90JDR> you connected your doorbell wires to a chicken?

Hmmm, octoblu flow idea, on ring neighborhood share of solictor, check for motion zone activation for period of 1 hr, immediately tell Rachio to turn on front lawn sprinkler zone if motion triggered, upload ensuing chaos footage from ring to slack.

Cheers <@U3Y8CV1MY>! Congrats on the engagement!

Got the pro power thing installed. App now shows the ring device has 3880mV of power

I have doorbell envy now. Might be doing this project soon. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

<@UK6S90JDR> Thanks, man! Going to be a fun ride!

Had some Dlink and Netgear "Powerline" gear...
Was better than 802.11b WiFi that time but never head real Gbit speed
