I am looking for a good quality wireless door chime with flashing light with a budget upto 30$. In future, I have plans to replace it later with a video door bell, so just looking at it as a temporary solution.

I have shortlisted [Kogan Battery-Free Wireless Digital Doorbell] (https://www.kogan.com/au/buy/kogan-battery-free-wireless-dig…) which is 29.99$ and seems to have lot of good reviews but I am always sceptical about such reviews.

So wondering if anyone here has any experience with this product or has any other product recommendations.

    I know it is only $30 but I'd get one from Bunnings over Kogan any day and if you don't like it you can always take it back.

    Showing as $19.99 for me.

    This one works well for under $12. I use one modified in my letterbox to let me know when there is mail.

      what modification did you do ? Is it like whenever delivery person drops the packet in the mailbox, they push the button to notify you? then what do you use for guests ?

        I added a lever operated micro switch across the push button contacts with a capacitor and resistor so the doorbell only rings once while a letter is in the box. I also added a LED to the receiver that stays on if we are not home so we know if there has been a delivery.

        We still have an old school direct wired ding dong door bell for visitors.

      Reason I liked the Kogan one is because it has
      * separate kinetic push button and LED light
      * Up to 150m operating distance
      * Battery-free push button with up to 200,000 press lifetime
      * IP44 Water-resistant push button
      * 4 Levels of adjustable volume with 32 customisable chime sounds

      This is actually good. What about its battery type and is it easily available and replaceable ?
      The description doesn't say anything about it.

      can you please share the promo on which you got it for 23.93$ ?

      • chrisie on 15/11/2020 - 16:45

        Sorry long gone that was back in August, comes up on Amazon now and again.

          thanks for your prompt response.

  • chrisie on 15/11/2020 - 12:18

    Battery very easy to replace (just order battery of Ebay), have had the unit since August with no problems at all . I find it's great having 2 receivers as I have placed one at the front of the house while the other one at the rear so I can hear it in the back garden.
