Ring Doorbell- Thoughts?
We've been thinking of a couple of security cameras for our house; one for the front door & one for the driveway near the garage doors. We'd primarily like to see who's outside before answering.
For the front, I'm thinking of the Ring Doorbell 2, an Amazon Prime day deal. There's also a Ring camera combined with security lights that would be good for the driveway area. It's direct wired, so would be an easy replacement for the motion lights we have there now.
A lot of the reviews of the Ring products complain that they're slow to start recording, and you get delayed alerts while someone is outside. As with most reviews, you can never tell if the reviewer has a legitimate complaint, or if he/she is just a moron who doesn't know how to configure or use the thing.
Any experience here with Ring products? Thoughts, opinions? I know they charge you a few $ per month to store your video, which is a downside compared to local storage, but probably acceptable to me.
