wifi chime for wired nest hello

ronnmcby — Sat, 15 Apr 2023 14:15:25 GMT

Hi,

I have a wired Nest Hello Doorbell that was connected with a wire to an indoor mechanical chime that has quit working. The Hello Doorbell camera does function fully and records video history.

Is there a wifi-connected indoor chime that I can buy to work with the wired Nest Doorbell?

Thanks! Ron

You could buy a Nest Mini (https://store.google.com/product/google_nest_mini) and turn on "Visitor announcements" (https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7672451).

Thank you for this idea. However, I don't want Google to overhear our conversations indoors. Is there an actual wifi chime that will work?

I am not aware of any Wi-Fi chimes that work with the Google Nest Hello Doorbell. The doorbell is designed to work with wired chimes.

You COULD, however, entire rewire your doorbell so that it plugs into an OhmKat Video Doorbell Power Supply (https://www.ohmkat.com/products/ohmkat-video-doorbell-power-supply-compatible-with-nest-hello-no-existing-wiring-required-transformer-adapter-power-kit-supply-all-in-one) and then purchase an OhmKat Video Doorbell Chime (https://www.ohmkat.com/products/universal-wireless-video-doorbell-chime?pr_prod_strat=use_description&pr_rec_id=0eebb2201&pr_rec_pid=2360667340879&pr_ref_pid=6552033558607&pr_seq=uniform).
