Smart Doorbell


Recommended Posts

Hi all.  Looking to replace my "sad" Ring Doorbell with something better.  Can anybody recommend anything that uses your local LAN and not the Internet and cloud?  Thanks..

Looking into this myself.  I checked out Eufy, and chatted with their support (bot?).

Their Dual model has 8gig of memory on board, able to store 'events'. 

They also have a hub they call a HomeBase which has 16 gig of memory.  The HomeBase integrates multiple Eufy devices.  They estimate that the system with HomBase can record about 2 months worth of events,  nosubscription required.

Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be any capability to record continuous video, as my Nest Hello does with the subscription service. 

The reason I am looking into this is Nest has upped the price of their subscription service by about 300%.

Update ... I did some checking and decided to purchase the Eufy E340.

It is currently available on Amazon (Canada) at 30% discount (CA$ 159.95), a black Friday deal.

-dual camera - sees faces and doorstep

-battery or wired.

-motion activated LEDs for color image at night.
