    Ask yourself this question:
    Would you rather swap or charge lithium battery packs (ring) or have ZERO protection with wired doorbells if there's a blackout or a well thought robbery where they cut the power?
    Wireless all day for me.

    We ended up exchanging this model for the slimmer version czcams.com/users/postUgkx0jZ_lGlDVJhDnmagEU8gn47cmfPNlLQU because it was too wide for the only door trim area that made sense to mount it on. However, we should have just noted the dimensions prior to purchasing. Otherwise, we love the doorbell. It works perfectly, and the video is very clear, even at night.

      Well they can steal both but the whole point of it is the theft will be caught and saved so you will know who steals it. I also recommend the cheaper eBay no name brand models. I have had 4 of them and place them all around my house for the motion sensor capabilities. The batteries last about two months or longer depending if you play with yours like I did at first(using them when I hear any little noise). But if you use them for the night vision and motion sensor then they can last 3 months with just regular doorbell use.
