I would like to add an additional nest hello door bell.  I have one installed already.  But I do not have an extra chime connector, can I install a second nest hello doorbell with the one chime connector to the one I have installed now.  If so, does anyone have a wiring diagram?

Hi there,

Sorry for my late response. Thank you for all of your patience while waiting for a reply. I just wanted to make sure that your issue is addressed. You can set up another Nest Hello Doorbell up to a single chime. Yes, you can setup multiple Nest Hello doorbells on a chime. Please note that these configurations require a higher powered transformer, with 24V+20VA or 16V+30VA.

Check the wiring diagrams below for both US and UK setup:

Please let me know if you need further assistance.

Best Regards,

Brad.

The bottom diagram did not work for me. I just installed a new 16v 30va transformer and bought a new door chime. Once I connected everything as pictured in the diagram both of my doorbells are not getting power and the door chime buzzes and smells like burning wire.
