** 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.
