Customer Review: Good Product
Summary: 5 Stars
Have had this product for 6 months now. Works very well as described. Well made product.Customer Review: Good Wireless Door Bell
Summary: 4 Stars
I have had this product for almost three months. It works well. I have a front gate that I screwed the push button on. Unfortunately, I learned that you can't put the button on anytype of surface. I had to place some washers between the button unit and the metal gate surface to make the signal stronger between the button and chime units. I tried to place it on the stucco wall of my house, but that didn't work because again the button won't send the signal when it is mounted flush again the stucco or metal gate. I guess the signal from the button to the chime unit can be compromised by the surface (and thickness of the surface?) of where you're putting the push button. So after mounting the button on the metal frame of my gate with some spacers between the unit and mounted surface, I moved the chime unit near my front door, and the wireless unit worked perfectly. The chimes are loud and audible from my back yard even when I have my sliding doors and windows shut. The distance between my gate and front door is no more than 50 feet.Customer Review: Great Doorbell
Summary: 5 Stars
My wired doorbell went out and I'm not much of a "handy man" so I was hoping that a wireless doorbell would solve my problem. Couldn't be happer with the purchase. There really isn't much to it besides putting batteries in and if you want to mount the button securely just putting in two screws (velcro is another option). I was thinking that I would probably need to get to for my house, one upstairs and one downstairs, but after getting it in place it's plenty loud and works great. Would defiantly recommend.Customer Review: Great Product

Honeywell RCWL330A1000/N P4-Premium Portable Wireless Door Chime and Push Button
I bought this based upon the excellent reviews here on Amazon. It was a smart buy and the review were right on. This item packs a lot of punch for the price. The fit, finish, and sound quality are excellent. It is easy to program it and seemed pretty instinctive.
I received this with the standard white doorbell push and used that for the shop. We also bought the brass finish doorbell pushbutton Honeywell RPWL302A1005/A Decor Wireless Surface Mount Push Button to match the trim on the house door glass.
Having been so satisfied with the set-up, we then bought the Converter/Extender/Pushbutton Honeywell RPWL3045A1003/A Wireless Premium Portable Converter/Extender/Push Button. This add-on device worked perfectly to tie in an existing driveway alarm. We hardwired this device to the 'normally open' contacts on our driveway alarm unit. Now when the driveway alarm gets a signal, it closes its output N/O contacts, which triggers the Honeywell extender device. The Honeywell extender then transmits the signal to the main Door Chime unit. So now we have three distinct tones set up on the main Door Chime: one tone for the house pushbutton, one for the shop pushbutton, and one for the driveway alarm system.
The stated range of 450' is probably line-of-sight only, though this hasn't been verified. When introducing walls into the distance, it goes down dramatically. We had it temporarily set up during house construction: It had trouble getting through about 50' of building, a couple walls, then across another 70' open-air, and then 3' around a building corner to a push button. Holding the pushbutton just 4' closer so that it had more line of sight to the building with the transmitter made the difference.
Testing it with everything in it's final location worked fine (through one wall and across 70' open air).
One small detail on the pushbuttons: The mounting screws provided have fat screw heads that do not fit properly in the case. I dug around and found screws with narrower heads.
Customer Review: Great Purchase
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this when my old doorbell quit working. This is such a nice and easy alternative to trying to mess with the old wiring in my house.
I love being able to set different tones for different doorbells so I know what door to go to. It is easily expandable and plenty loud too.
This was easily one of the best purchases I have made for my new house!
