Can someone tell what is the (average) power consumption of the doorbell when in standby (when doing nothing, no video recording, no bells ringing, .. ) .
I wonder, because I have a transformer, supplying only 19 mA (AC) to the doorbell, that should be enough to continuously keep the battery full, or do I need another transformer ?
The conditions are good, about 15 - 25 degrees Celsius , only a few people passing by every day.

I'm not an electrician, and don't know how to interpret what "19 mA" means, but these are Google Nest's transformer requirements:

I don't know the battery doorbell's power consumption when it's in "Idle" mode.

Thanks,
that's is interesting information, but the power-supply they mention deals with peak-powers I guess,
Even 10 watt (VA) average consumption would make the doorbell way too hot to handle,
also the 6000 mA battery would last only a few hours, so the average consumption has to be much less then the values stated in their requirement list.
Thanks anyway ....
