Review: Loud and clear ringer and works with Ring Video Doorbell - Very nice doorbell ringer, gets extremely loud and clear sound which was exactly what I was looking for and has a nice range of features (namely the elegant edge light and the ability to mute for a set amount of time). Also has a nice range of sounds, I have it set to the big ben chime as it lasts for a good amount of time. So initially I had a few issues trying to get get this to work with my Ring Video Doorbell however after a lengthy phone conversation with Ring support (who were extremely helpful) I managed to get it to work. For those that are curious about how I got it working, Firstly you will need an 8/12volt and 1Amp rated transformer for this to work properly. The transformer wires plug into the AC1 (postive) and AC2 (ground) terminals of the Honeywell ringer. Then one side of the Ring Video Doorbell needs be wired to the A1 terminal of the Honeywell unit and the other side needs to be wired into AC2 ground terminal (not A2) as it shows you in the Honeywell instructions. Once this is done the white ring should be lit up on the Ring Video Doorbell to indicate it is wired. Also note that the diode that comes with the Ring is not required and you will also need to fit batteries in the Honeywell ringer unit. In conclusion great unit and does what it says on the tin. My only gripe with it is, as others have stated, the instructions are a little vague and could be more clear. It would be nice to have a more range of sounds also. Review: Ding dong merrily on high - This is a nice unit which I installed to replace an old wired unit, installed as a wired installation and wall mounted. Installation was fairly straightforward, although I did need to adjust my existing transformer as that bad boy was pumping out 14.8V and this unit is rated for 8-12V. No big deal, most have 2 or more settings so just switched one wire over and boom, I had 9.6V of perfection. The connectors are push-fit and only take one wire. My original set-up had 3 wires to the transformer connection to distribute power to the front and rear bell pushes; this unit assumes you will feed those from the transformer whereas it is of course much more convenient to run the paired wire to a single location. Easily sorted with a connector or a twist and a drop of solder, but would be nice if Honeywell recognised this as I suspect it will be quite common. Note also the wiring diagrams included don't include this scenario. Once wired up, the unit came to life and delivers as expected. We have different chimes for front and back door, with different colour halos. I like that the unit halo flashes for a few seconds after the bell rings and of course this feature is great for anyone with hearing impairment. I am planning to also pair a portable unit for garden purposes. I'm hoping this can be done without the need for the wireless converter as it should pair with this unit (as it acts as a range extender) but yet to be seen. Overall though, this is a great door chime that has retrofitted easily to my 1970s installation. ## Features - Reliable Wireless Range - Honeywell Home ActivLink tech provides a dependable cordless doorbells connection up to 200m.

Kind RegardsAlisonSecuricare UK **Q: If you want to extend the range beyond 200m by using a second unit how do you link that to the original unit? Can anyone give me clear instructions?!** A: You will be lucky to get 200m. We had one which failed to give us 60m with line of sight (through window). We got a second one which we linked and placed in a building 10m away from the bell and closed the gap to 50m to the next one and it worked. The 200m range is theoretical and not real world. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Loud and clear ringer and works with Ring Video Doorbell *by A***R on 22 March 2018* Very nice doorbell ringer, gets extremely loud and clear sound which was exactly what I was looking for and has a nice range of features (namely the elegant edge light and the ability to mute for a set amount of time).

The backplate for connecting the wires especially needed some explanation. Why the wire connectors couldn't be tightened in place using screws like most other electrical devices I've come across was strange. Instead there was these flimsy plastic rocker type connectors that you use a screwdriver to release - but the instructions don't say where you put the pressure on to do this, so inevitably it breaks with very little pressure. I broke AC1,AC2, and one of the others - so wires are pushed in but not clamped in. Not the best way to leave it, but no choice. Back plate very poor. Once connected to Nest Hello its great. I'm very happy with it working, with choice of chimes and volume control. The flashing light looks good, but it's fitted to wall in hall, so I never see it. I do recommend this, especially if you have a Nest Hello. Just be aware about the backplate wiring. ## Frequently Bought Together - Honeywell Home Wired or Wireless Doorbell - Battery Operated with Halo Light, Sleep Mode & 200m Range - Horizontal Compact Doorbell with LED Alerts - White (DW915S) - Honeywell DC915SCV 9 Series Doorbell Converter Kit - White - Duracell Plus C Batteries (4 Pack) - Alkaline 1.5V - 100% Life Guaranteed - Reliability For Everyday Devices - 0% Plastic Packaging - 10-Year Storage - MN1400 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/51159487-honeywell-home-wired-or-wireless-doorbell-battery-operated-with-halo](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/51159487-honeywell-home-wired-or-wireless-doorbell-battery-operated-with-halo) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-10-08*
