Google nest doorbell (battery)

I have owned a nest doorbell for a little over a year. Suddenly it won't stay charge, I fully charge it and mount it outside. After about 8 hours it has completly died. I have done a factory reset, made sure to use the charger that came with my device, i even adjusted the camera setting so saves battery life. Still not working, any other thing i can do? Or must it be replaced? My warranty expired 2 months ago

Hey Talamqntes95,

 

I’m sorry to hear you’re having trouble with this. No worries, we'll check this out. The battery drains faster in cold weather or if there's a lot of activity (even if the activity isn't saved as a clip).

  • If it's possible, adjust the angle of your camera to a more productive area that catches fewer unimportant activities.

Thanks,

Archie

I have it set to where it only records when doorbell is pressed. It used to last 3 months, now it doesnt. Should i just replace it?

When it comes to keeping your Nest Doorbell (battery) or Nest Cam (battery) up and running, here are some articles and troubleshooting guides for the best charging practices:

  • This is a great article on general charging times for your devices.
  • This helpful article tells you how to save the battery with your doorbell or camera.
  • And this last article, will go over charging expectations when you may live in a cooler/colder environment which will address charging temperatures, etc.

I hope those articles help shed some light on charging and maintaining battery levels of your Nest doorbell or camera. Please let me know if you need further assistance.

Thanks for your help here, Archie.

 

Best regards,

Brad
