Doorbell system was installed in August 2020 when the old analog bells both failed. | |||
It is wireless and has chimes with strobe lights in: | |||
*Cold metals above desk outside the kitchen | |||
*Between hot metals and the woodshop | |||
Loud enough to be heard in most of the building, though as of July 2025 it's unknown if it can be heard upstairs or in CNC laser/3D printing. We could add another unit up front for $50 if needed. | |||
The model is no longer listed on Safeguard Supply's website, however it seems like all the LRA models are compatible with each other. The ringer has a wallwart power supply and 3 C cells for power. The door buttons use 2032 battery | |||
The front door rings the Star Wars Or Indiana Jones Theme. The back rings Call to Post (racehorse start music). The sounds ring on both chimes simultaneously. | |||
=== History === | |||
* Feb 17, 2023 - Replaced front battery n reset chime unit in cold metals | |||
* July 3, 2025 - Front door button is missing, no idea for how long. | |||
* July 18, 2025: | |||
** Safeguard's site noted that all LRA gear is compatible with each other, so a new chime receiver and button transmitter were purchased. | |||
** A neat little project box for the front door got build with the new transmitter and an ESP32 to pick up the front doorbell press. | |||
** Apparently, after contacting Safeguard, our LRA gear is old and not compatible with newer LRA gear, so the new stuff won't pair with the old stuff. So much for that. | |||
** Safeguard also doesn't sell the old gear anymore. Womp womp. | |||
** Chime receiver in cold metals wasn't paired with the back door button transmitter. | |||
** Chime receiver in wood/metal shop was found unplugged with dead batteries. | |||
** Battery in transmitter button for the back door is dead. | |||
** Current state is nothing works. | |||
