Ring doorbell

Former Community Member

Hello, just wondering if anyone's ever hardwired an ring doorbell?


i fitted a 24 volt transformer module and just found out I have to add an wirewound resistor I bought from online 25ohm 50 watt 


the bell wire runs about 5 meters. I checked and the voltage is around 10 volts 

the ring requires between 16-24v. 

I have not fitted it yet but will try again

    Where is the resistor going to be installed?


    For that matter where is the bell transformer going to be installed.
