Nest Doorbell 2nd Gen Onboard Memory - Event Storage

[o_O]

The Nest Doorbell (2nd Gen) comes with onboard memory to store events when wifi is out - if wifi goes out, is the memory over-written with the latest events, or does the doorbell simply stop recording once its onboard memory is full (assuming wifi service hasn't been restored)?

For example, if the wifi is out from 9am until 11am and the doorbell is able to record an hour of data, would it store data from 9am until 10am, or 10am until 11am?

Hello o_O,

Thanks for reaching out here in the Community. The Nest Cam (wired) and Nest Doorbell (wired, 2nd gen) save video to local storage a little bit differently. They can still record video and store it locally when the Wi-Fi or internet goes out, and then upload it to the cloud when reconnected. However, because they don't have a backup battery and when the power goes out, they won't be able to record and save video locally.
