Nest doorbell transformer

Hi all.

Can anyone advise if a nest battery (wired) doorbell can be powered from a LED transformer

Hello, The first thing I notice is that is says 24V "DC" (direct current).   The nest doorbells here in the US require AC (alternating current) power.   So this would probably not work.   I found this on a Google Search for Nest Doorbell UK:  "  If you choose the optional wired installation for your Nest Doorbell (battery) by connecting it to your existing doorbell wires (8 to 24 VAC, 10 VA, 50/60 Hz transformer), your existing wired doorbell chime can ring when someone presses the button."

😭 I'm looking for the electrical diagram in Spain for a similar installation: Nest Doorbell Battery wired with an existing chime. Thank you very much for your help

I'm not sure on the led transformer, but I run mine off this:

Which is pretty much the same as the led transformer in terms of wiring. 240 live and neutral in, 24v live and neutral out.

I have read your post. Does your Nest Doorbell Battery work with your existing doorbell?

i never had an existing doorbell, it was a totally new install.
