Pros & Cons
Pros
Good old fashioned, traditional doorbell. Replacement for my existing door chime. Only issue is that most people who come to the door latey for some strange reason seem to prefer to knock on the door.
Easy to wire in as instructions are in packaging.
Cons
You barely hear it so faint it is. The volume is so low you have to be in the same room as the bell (powered with the same transformer as the previous) to hear it.
Ordered a friedland but received a honeywell. My fault. This will be binned. Returned immediately for refund.
