Ring has announced the new Ring Battery Video Doorbell. This next generation of Ring’s doorbell, the Video Doorbell 2nd Gen, is promising some big enhancements.
It is promising a 23% longer battery life which is a huge deal!
Capture Every Moment in Full View
Head-to-Toe HD video is now available on Ring Battery Video Doorbell. This provides the same view that you enjoy on the Doorbell Plus and Pro models. Battery Video Doorbell includes HD video and 150-degree by 150-degree field of view, giving you a head-to-toe vision of all your visitors. With Head-to-Toe video, you get a 66 percent taller view compared to the previous generation, making features like Package Alerts (available with a Ring Protect subscription) even more helpful by easily seeing deliveries on a doorstep.
In addition to Head-to-Toe HD video, Battery Video Doorbell features Colour Night Vision, so you can easily see what’s going on day or night.
Additional Ring Features
Like all Ring doorbells and cameras, Battery Video Doorbell features motion detection with Customisable Motion Zones and real-time alerts, Live View, and the ability to talk to anyone on the other end of the doorbell at anytime, via the Two-Way Talk function.
With a Ring Protect subscription, you can access Smart Alerts, which inform them if there’s a person or a package at their door, and also receive Rich Notifications to see exactly what triggered an alert with a photo preview in pop-up notifications on their phone. You will also be able to store the camera’s captured footage in the cloud for up to 180 days.
Battery Video Doorbell works seamlessly with other Ring devices and is fully compatible with Alexa-enabled devices. This allows you to create an integrated whole-home system. You can conveniently receive motion alerts on connected Alexa devices, meaning they can see, hear and speak to visitors through an Echo or Fire TV.
Simplified DIY Installation – in Five Minutes or Less
It was easy to install before, but apparently now it’s going to ne easier. With an all-new push-pin mount design, Battery Video Doorbell can be installed and removed easily. You simply push to securely attach the doorbell to the wall mount. When it’s time to recharge the battery, you easily release the doorbell from the mount by inserting the new push-pin tool.
Designed with Privacy and Security Front of Mind
Battery Video Doorbell was designed with privacy and security front of mind. This is everything from two-step verification, to end-to-end encryption as an advanced encryption option for you. In addition, Battery Video Doorbell puts you in control. It features customisable privacy settings, and privacy zones. This allows you to block areas they do not want to monitor and record.
