Hi Lewis Welcome to the forum, please familiarise yourself with the rules before posting https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/guidelines/

Ideally, you need one that does AHD TVI ect as well

Its ip only?

Hi Rich Does the detector light up when you move in front of it?

Hi and welcome

The battery is knackered pulling the system down when you power it up

LOL!

I remember when you googled spermburpers.com and you were disappointed

Down power, then power up mains only

Mine is a few years old now, cant remember the make and there are no names on it. Just had a look on ebay and there are hundreds of different ones now, mine looks quite old in comparison. The app that works with mine is called smartbell. This one looks like it may be the updated version, the ancillaries are the same and the app looks the same https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WiFi-Wireless-Video-Doorbell-Smart-Door-Bell-Security-Night-Vision-APP-Control/264157656516?hash=item3d8105f5c4:m:mK2Sm6fNLOLsdtBX7lHsLgQ:rk:12:pf:0

I know alarm engineers that cant wire up two way lighting, never hear them say lights are rubbish, they would just google how to do it. I suppose thats the difference between, our trade and sparkies

Driod is andriod, but I dont have Hik or Ring anymore I sent them back, I have a cheapo Chinese one from Ebay which on the whole worked better than the other two, but still doesnt work like the advert. My honest opinion, there isnt a doorbell product that works like the Ring ad....yet. There will be as it is improving all the time. I would recommend a cheapo £30.00 Chines one until they do bring one out that actually works, either that or get a Comlit VIP system, they do work but they are hard wired not WiFi quite a bit bigger than ring or Hik, and considerably more expensive.

Swerve the free ones, anyone thats giving app for free has no motivation to get it working asap when it goes wrong, especially on a nice day like this.

It will be good when someone produces one of these doorbells that works like they do in the adverts. Maybe they will work better when we have 5g, but I somehow doubt it when they are useless on WiFi

Ive tried the hik and the ring and the cheap Chinese one found on ebay for £50. Non of them worked as advertised, I still have the Chinese one, it works for my purposes, rings, records on my driods, but it doesnt call my phone (the app drains my smartphone battery far too much) . All of them have poor connection and delays when the doorbells are connected, they are nothing like the TV adverts even when you are in the house on the same WiFi connection. The motion detect alarm goes off for no apparent reason even on the lowest setting.

Hi Glen and welcome

Swap the zones in the panel too this will tell you if the fault is the panel, the contact, or cable

The pic is web client but, I found it on the windows client

Have you logged in to your SSAIB and looked in there? I am sure that there is a list in the NSI website installer area, but I dont have the log in details to hand

Found it I just needed to right click Ta

I dont have that option?

I cant find cti mode?

Not sure the council can charge me for parking on my own land, I already pay enough rates.

Seriously tho, I have installed the click to call extension it allows me to use my pc as the same phone extension, but I dont think it lets me control the phone
