2nd generation doorbell with I ut chime

[Burkeman99]

Can I install a 2nd generation Nest doorbell and not use a chime? Can I just have it notify me in Google Home.

The install guide says I may damage it if I operate it without the chime wired in.

Hi @Burkeman99,

Thanks for posting here in the community. I understand your concern about looking for a way to receive notifications for your Nest Doorbell 2Gen without relying on a chime. I'm happy to help!

Have a look at this guide:

• Installation: The Nest Doorbell 2Gen is designed to work with the included chime connector during installation. Refer to this article: Check Nest doorbell compatibility.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Regards,

Melany
