Doorbell wiring in Saint Clair Shores: local conditions matter

Powering a video doorbell properly
A wired video doorbell that keeps going offline or will not ring the indoor chime is almost always short on power. Many older transformers put out 10 or 16 volts at low capacity, while smart doorbells generally want 16 to 24 volts with more capacity behind it. We locate the transformer, replace it with the right one and check voltage at the door. Cold Michigan winters are hard on battery doorbells, so a wired connection is well worth having in Saint Clair Shores.
