Very helpful. I just bought a set for my elderly mom. She is constantly missing visitors at the door due to how far in the back of the house her room is. These have been helpful so far!
I saw these on Amazon and then I found this video on CZcams. Thank you for making it. I'm considering getting a set for my mom to use because she pretty much yells through a few walls when she's in her office space and no one can ever hear her ask "who is it?" The only thing is I would like for there to be a way for her to initiate the intercom to the outdoor unit but that's okay. Thanks again! I hope these are still working great for you and I hope you and your family are well. :-)
You can get just the inside units and they would fit your application much better. They would act as a very simple walkie talkie. Or, get an indoor/outdoor set and a few indoor ones. That way you can put the outdoor one as a doorbell as well and answer it with any of the indoor ones!
Thanks for making this video. Had a question. Once the outside intercom ring or talk button is pressed, how long does the indoor unit have to respond? Does the outdoor unit go back to sleep in sometime? Thanks in advance
Great detailed video. Thank you. I'll probably go with this one unless I can find one that has an open mic so the visitor doesn't have to push a button to talk. Any ideas?
No, I only have used this one. Battery would last only a day or so with an open microphone as well as it being extremely annoying and keeping the rest of the intercom system from being able to be used. You won't find one that will do that. It would be like a radio constantly being transmitting.
No, unless someone wakes it up by ringing the bell or hitting the talk button. Otherwise it is off. We are still using these daily to talk amongst the multiple houses on our property to we are not calling family members.
Excellent information. Because of your video I bought 3 outdoor and 3 indoor. I understand that the indoor units can communicate to each other like walkie talkie. My question is can you initiate a conversation with the outdoor unit from the indoor unit if the person outside does not push the bell or the talk button ? Thanking you in advance.
No, the outdoor unit stays "asleep" until someone presses the bell or talk button. Only after that the indoor units can talk to the outdoor units. We're very happy with them so far!
Aww I’m not happy about that. I bought them thinking I can start the conversation without a delivery person pressing it first. They tend to leave the packages if I see them coming I was hoping I can advise them to take the package to my side door.
@@Ki-lk5wn While it would be nice to do that, it would be unreasonable to expect the battery to last more than a few days at a time if this were the case. Also, if you were using the intercom as we do for other purposes, people would be hearing all your conversations. :)
Hi there! I have a few questions, how did you stick it on outside? Do you screw it on or can you use one of those command strips? How is the outdoor one charged? Is it Bluetooth? How does it connect to the other intercoms? Thank you in advance
I used wood screws. Command strips will not hold up outdoors. These will need to be changed out every few months with the batteries on the indoor units so they can be charged. Takes about 5 minuets. They do not charge otherwise & will eventually die. They stay connected via radio waves. In a sense, they're never connected, rather, they communicate with each other when called upon.
Thanks for the video, great review. One question if I have two indoor units, is there a way to make the units chime? (like pressing the chime button on the outdoor unit) I've seen some adverts that say pressing the power button will do this.
Yes! Pressing the power button on the inside unit will call to the other inside units, but of course it will not call to the outside unit as it is in sleeping mode :-)
@@katgoldenfinch I am planning to keep the inside unit beside me all the time. That's why I would prefer to hear a short (shorter than 1 second) and low-volume tone when another team member wants to talk to me. Is it possible to set up such a short and quiet tone? Alternatively, is it possible to start a conversation without that tone at all, instead, just by starting to talk?
@8K HDR Soothing Relaxation the tone that sounds when you press the power button is short in duration (about 2 seconds long) and the volume is subjective of course, but I the lowest volume it is still a little bit loud in my opinion.... yes, with the indoor units, you can press the "talk" button and begin taking to other units, no need to press the power button and sound the tone (this is how we use them daily, by pressing talk and not utilizing the tone) 😊
I meant when you hit the ringer... for example, the ringer also is on the outdoor unit. When you press it, nothing happens & you're unsure if it actually has sent the ring until someone talks back.
Yes. I had one minor issue with the outdoor unit. One of my delivery drivers pressed the Bell button too hard and it made the switch not work properly. It was a very easy fix to open up the unit and reinforce the button so it would not happen again and it hasn't since. Otherwise we've been very happy with it!
I'm not exactly sure what you mean. Are you asking if you can use the outdoor units as indoor? You could, but, they would only be useful as one-way until woken up. I don't think one outdoor unit would wake up another outdoor unit though, so you could not exclusively use the outdoor units.
@CallMeColt hi! I'm an uber driver and just got a partition installed which ended up being VERY soundproof! It was suggested I get this item. How would you suggest I stick it in to my partion. I was thinking command strips. Also, is there a way to charge it in the car with any type of USB charger or would I need to bring it home and charge them in the base? Ty
@@CallMeColtLLC could you give a guess for about how far apart they need to be before the feed back starts....? I in no means would ever dream about telling you what to do ... but if 1 day you wanted to take a walk to your outside intercom with your indoor one and see when it starts happening I'd live to know. 😁😁 Also, since j would be using them in the car, could I buy 2 indoor versions or is an outside version necessary? Ty
The doorbell only stays on for 30 seconds after the doorbell button is pressed and then it turns off unless the talk button is being used. So when only indoor units are being used between each other, the doorbell units are silent.
Can you just have 4 indoor intercoms and communicate to all? like, husband is upstairs, on #1 intercom, but no he's in the garage on #2, can I communicate with all at the same time to find him?
If they are all set to the same settings, yes, they all communicate together. I have 3 indoor units on my system and two outdoor units. We use them daily still.
Anyone have an issue with the chime function? On the outdoor unit I press the bell button and the inside unit does not ring. Followed the instructions and it’s still a no go. Everything else works fine.
You are sure that both are on the same channel? Batteries charged? Power on? If so, when you press the bell, does the unit wake up & still communicate with the indoor unit afterwards?
It says, “every conversation must be started by the OUTDOOR unit first”. Let’s say I saw someone outside but did not see the outdoor intercom, does it mean there is no way I can talk first using my indoor unit to ask the person outside who is he/she is looking for?
No, not until someone touches a button on the outdoor unit to wake it up first. Indoor units can communicate amongst each other all the time. This is how the battery is able to last so long.
Thanks for a quick reply! So only indoor units can communicates with each other at all times as long as they have the same codes? If I have 3 indoor units, when I talk using indoor unit 1, the other 2 indoor units will both hear my voice at the same time?
@@jonardnatanauan3899 Correct, that's exactly how we have been using them for a few years now around our property. Then every 6 months, I go swap the batteries in the outdoor units. For the cost, these have far exceeded my expectations. If you decide to buy them, I'd greatly appreciate you clicking the link in the video description as it will help me out a little bit! Thanks for watching the video either way. Glad I could help you.
@@DrivinwithJoe No problem. If you decide to buy, consider using the links in the video description. It will help out my channel a little bit! Thank you for watching.
After a while battery keep dying wasnt really good if its on outdoor and in a housing on its own. After that ants keeps getting in. After 1 year through everything at the trash.
I had to return mine soon as I received it. It is only one way communication which means, you cannot communicate from indoor to outdoor. The outdoor automatically goes to sleep mode after 25 seconds , so if someone is in front of your door, you cannot say hello from indoor, you have to wait until someone press talk from outdoor which sucks balls. anyways, there is another device which is 2 way intercom, so if you see someone outside, you just press talk from indoor and dont need to hold the button, you can speak to them and they to you without holding buttoin. I have a wireless doorbell with no camera and its loud, a wired camera on my front door. so this Wuloo is useless for me
I explain in the video exactly what you are saying, as well as the product description. It's to preserve battery and keep everyone from hearing your internal home communication.
@@CallMeColtLLC lmfao I saw this video was way too long for me and went straight to the comments , I come to CZcams a lot before I purchase any items from amazon and didn’t do it for this wuloo product . Thank you for your video and helping us out

Great review. We are looking to buy this for our Rural Property as our home is about 300 feet from the road.
This should work great for you. The only issue we have had is people not pressing the correct button to ring inside, but it has worked well.
Thank you for this!
No problem, thanks for watching!

Thanks for making this video. Had a question. Once the outside intercom ring or talk button is pressed, how long does the indoor unit have to respond? Does the outdoor unit go back to sleep in sometime? Thanks in advance
Yes, it does go back to sleep in 25 seconds if no activity is detected after being woken up or used.

Thanks for watching!
Just got mine today. How long should I charge the units for and will the light go off when they are fully charged?
I let mine charge overnight & then swapped the batteries to the outdoor unit. Then, the indoor stays on the charger all the time so it worked well.
On the outdoor unit, can I use double-sided tape to install it or do I have to drill holes?
I would use a real good double sided tape if that's the route your going to go.
Can you also recommend lock for gates that you can unlock also if you're far from the house? TIA
I don't have a recommendation for that at all, I'm sorry.
Great video, but I'm a little confused. On the outdoor intercom, you said "I wish it gave feedback," but you were talking back and forth on it...?
I meant when you hit the ringer... for example, the ringer also is on the outdoor unit. When you press it, nothing happens & you're unsure if it actually has sent the ring until someone talks back.
Saw this video today, was wondering it’s been almost a year with the product and review is it still working properly..???

It was a very easy fix to open up the unit and reinforce the button so it would not happen again and it hasn't since. Otherwise we've been very happy with it!
Can you connect 4 outdoor units and use just for indoor so you get the sleep feature and it doesn't have to be charged for several months?
I'm not exactly sure what you mean. Are you asking if you can use the outdoor units as indoor? You could, but, they would only be useful as one-way until woken up. I don't think one outdoor unit would wake up another outdoor unit though, so you could not exclusively use the outdoor units.

These are basically two way radios so using in a vehicle at close range would not work so great. There would be feedback more than likely.

what type of battery and connector specification for replacement ?

There are links in the description to the items on Amazon. From the, Wuloo has a number of different combinations. Hope that is helpful!

I just purchased the Wuloo door bell system you use. Is it still working at your home?
Yes, still going strong
That will work good at my place, one for the house & one for the garage. Wonder how they will transmit through a metal building.
I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem unless you were near the edge of the range.

Is this a duplex audio system?
Only one at a time, like regular two way radios.
Can you talk to outside without outside pushing button
Nope. Or the battery would die in days. It is asleep until it is woken up by the bell button being pressed.
OK. Good video. The batteries look "special type". Can I purchase replacements from third party sellers???
Not that I know of. Mine are a few years old now & still hold a charge for months.
Can I used it with my Alexa echo
Nope, that's a digital internet device. This is completely analog. It's an actual radio.
