How to: Install AC Power to Your Ring Doorbell 

We ended up exchanging this model for the slimmer version ru-vid.comUgkx0jZ_lGlDVJhDnmagEU8gn47cmfPNlLQU because it was too wide for the only door trim area that made sense to mount it on. However, we should have just noted the dimensions prior to purchasing. Otherwise, we love the doorbell. It works perfectly, and the video is very clear, even at night.

I worked for ADT for 10 years and installed hundreds of these ring doorbells. I love em. That's exactly how I would have installed it too. But we have a little trick in the trade to fish the wire through the wall. It's a chain and magnet. 😁

This is beautiful nothing like father and Daughter bounding. Nothing like family my you and yours have continued blessings.

Put some silicone caulk around the wire on the outside and inside to prevent air leakage in and out of the house!

Appreciate this video a lot! Also, your dad is cool. Oh, and the stained glass on the door is really pretty. :)

I have used your video before for my 1st Ring Doorbell about a year ago. Was getting ready to install a 2nd Ring Doorbell today and have been searching forever to find this video. Very Thankful to you and your very smart father for making this video. Be Blessed!! Thank you again

Thanks! I just ordered my power adapter and will follow your steps. :)

great! learned about a peel off wire channel today. You make it look so easy. God bless your family.

Excellent advice and information 👍 thanks for sharing. 10/10

This is exactly what I needed! I’m so tired of charging the ring and now no don’t have to pay an electrician. Incan do this myself!! Thanks so much!!!!😊😊😊

Congratulations on the excellent video. is very well explained. Greetings from san Antonio Texas.

Thank you! Thank you! I learned something new from you today.

Excellent Video !! Thank you sharing the info!!

Daughter has a beautiful smile 😁

Thanks for this!

Thank you for this video. I think that I can make it work now.

Thanks Dad. I needed that tutorial.

Dad an OG fa sho✊🏿 rockin the Puma's I def appreciated the step by step & explaining the difference between AC & DC by The Oratorical Genius. Thanks so much! I'm definitely tired of having to take down the ring every few weeks just to recharge it.

It never occurred to me to use a dedicated wall wort for this! Thanks!

Excellent. Thanx!!

Thank you for this informative video. :-)

Great job. Thank you

omg ty sooooo much. My old doorbell doesn't work at all. Can't find the transformer anywhere in the house, attic, etc. This is sooo much easier and cheaper. tytytyyty

Awesome!!

Nice job

Wow. Very helpful. :)

I used a straw as casing and then pull my wires through

Dads take note. You should be teaching your children these little DIY situations. It’s going to help your children out in so many ways when they grow. Excellent video, I know how to do all of this but it never hit my they would sell a power adapter for the Rings.

Excellent Video thank you Is this hardwired only or can the extender be used on a non-wired Ring Doorbell? Great Tutorial

Brilliant

Great job.....I just have one concern that always bothers me. Dont hold the cord and let the wall wart dangle. That cord is thin, and that adapter is heavy. I'd hate for you to do all of that work to find out that it doesn't work because of a break in the cord.

So since you're using the power adapter to wire it up do you still need the batteries to be put in the ring doorbell or can you just use the power adapter

Did we have to keep charging always to ring doorbell

Great video. Can you provide the exact name of the trim you used to hide the ac cord?

Thanks for the video, very informative. But do you not need to use a wirewound resistor? The ring website says you do but yours looks fine.

How about some info on the wired device you used...Like where did you buy it...volts...watts...A/C in to A/C or D/C out???

Hello 👋 thanks for your video, please where can I get some of the power adapter.

Thank you for your video sir, will this adapter work for the ring 3 doorbell?

Thanks!😊

Well I’m 61 year-old female, and I installed my doorbell “wired” ring doorbell camera. For some odd reason the wire for the doorbell that runs from my basement to my doorbell chimes into my wall and out to my push doorbell, is not very strong because it won’t keep the batteries charged on my new ring doorbell! So I decided to order this adapter and drill a little hole on the inside of my house wall, just like in your picture, and install the plug-in adapter. What I’d like to know, is it OK to connect my plug-in adapter wires to my wired doorbell wires and then connect both sets onto the back of the ring doorbell camera system? In other words, connect the adapter and the original doorbell wiring together and then connect them to my ring doorbell unit.!? In other words I’d have two power sources going to my ring doorbell! Or would it be better just to omit the original old doorbell wiring and cap off and just go with the plug-in adapter connected to the back of the ring doorbell unit? The reason why I’m asking is because number one, my doorbell won’t stay charged on just my old doorbell wiring. And number two, I don’t want to lose the original doorbell wire that come out of the wall by shoving them back into the wall and having them get lost! Thank you for this great informative video😁👍

Hi. Does this charge your battery. I have installed a 18 V power supply to mine yet my device is still using battery power. Don’t know why in the app it says it is connected to hardwired. Cheers Craig

I'm doing this today...

Dumb question here 🙋🏻‍♀️ Once the adapter is wired & I screw it back on the door do I leave the battery in it or can / should I remove the battery? 🤦🏽‍♀️

Good option but you must always look for a more permanent and clean work.

I wish my dad was alive.

a doubt when connecting the ring doorbell to external power the ring in white lights up this how long it lasts on because I worry that it is on all the time and attracts the attention of the neighbors

what is the Model # for that power source Please ?

AN AC TO AC STEPDOWN TRANSFORMER TO BE EXACT!

A power adapter is called a TRANSFORMER!

Niece father and daughters

Alarms let you see who broke into your house but all you can do is watch him steal what he wants. To prevent break-ins you need active barrier protection, like more secure locks or door reinforcements and a police monitored system. P.S. with all the police defunding, don't count on the police showing up any time soon to stop a break-in.

I was worrying about the polarity when I purchased the adapter. Thanks for explaining about AC/DC power differences and why that doesn’t apply here 🥹❤
