Hi all,
Looking at getting a Ring Pro on Black Friday (when they're always on sale) but want to know first that we can easily get the wiring sorted before committing to buying it on the day, as the Pro is wired only, so don't want to buy it then get stuck.
Wired shouldn't be too hard but I just need some advice.
Currently have a wired doorbell and the transformer seems to be part of the chime unit and outputs 6V as far as I can tell. Ring needs 16-24v I believe.
At the consumer unit/fuse box side (which is full) the doorbell has its own fuse (single width). I see a suitable 'fuse' with built in transformer can be purchased from screwfix for a small amount, but this is double width so it wouldn't fit as we have no spare slots in the consumer unit.
How easy is this going to be / where exactly does the transformer from the Ring Pro fit into all this?
Cheers!
