Pros & Cons
Pros
This is well made and a sleek stylish design for both units. I'm satisfied with it compared with others i've used. This one fits the bill.
Tecknet wireless doorbell works straight out the box. Comes with cordless plug, wireless receiver and instructions leaflet. Works just as expected, it is quite loud, so we can hear it from any corner of the house.
There are 60 chimes to choose from, so the challenge is deciding which one you want. Sounds include a police siren and happy birthday.
Each unit has a blue led which flashes when in use. Works a treat and is slightly illuminated too so can be seen in the dark. Working modes is great, led and ringtone, a ringtone only, or the flashing light only.
The bell push has a coin battery fitted which can give up to 3 years use. It is also waterproof to an ip65 rating so it's more than capable of surviving a bad winter. It looks durable and i expect it to work for a couple of years.
Cons
It broke after 5 months.
Highlights
Quality
So far this one is working fine and its a much better quality product.
Arrived on time, product as ordered, to replace old front door bell.
The two previous wireless bells were poor quality and didn't last long.
Packaging/appearance
A simple to install doorbell and worked straight out the packaging.
Competitiveness
Just moved so got another tecknet doorbell for the new house and am not disappointed.
This item came really fast, bit disappointed as it says it’s a ip65 but instructions say it’s not that waterproof.
This one seems to be the only ip65 rated bell push available and is ok so far, but only time will tell.
