    RING Door Bells , any good?

    I've got a 3rd gen Ring. Opted to get solar charger for it. I have to charge the battery twice a year (December and March - door faces west so only gets sunlight in the afternoon). Without the subscription, live video only, with subscription, video is stored for 30 days. Brilliant device
