I’ve had Eufy wired doorbell for a few years. It’s still going. My only complaint is that it records a lot of tree movement. But my guess is that other doorbells would do it too. Idk.
I looked it up, it was released in 2019, so it’s not available too easily now. I’m sure they have a newer model. Mine is the Eufy T8200. But to answer your question, it works just as well in winter as it does in summer. The weather does not change the way it works.
Interesting. I have a good size house (about 4k sqft). I have the first ever doorbell they made, T8200 I think it is. Have had it for 5 years and no issues at all. I have 2 pro cameras as well. The battery life is going down a little, but they still last about 6-7 months between charges. I’m in Colorado too, so it gets cold as well. I know many others report having problems, but I’d look into your network just to be safe. I’d also hit up support because that short of battery life is wild.
I like my Eufy doorbell lol and the two other outdoor security cams. What’s up with yours?
Eufy 2K. No subscription, local storage, dead simple. Avoids all the Ring nonsense.
Eufy here too. I’ve a wired one and it’s been a great yoke for the last five years. No subscription unless you want it, not needed with local recording anyway.
Eufy is the way to go. I use Eufy for my home security (I pay for the monitoring service now, but didn't in the past), and I love it.
I like the focal length on the first one for this use case much better. My $35 Eufy 2k cameras are on par or better than both of them.
