This made the install of the wired 2nd generation doorbell so easy. Simply attach the wires to the doorbell and plug in to an indoor outlet. There is no need to do anything with the included chime. Great product.

This installation of this power supply couldn't have been easier. The hardest part was drilling through my wall because I didn't have a long enough drill bit and didn't want to buy one for one-time use. I ended up cutting a piece of coat hanger and flattening one end to make a crude spade bit and then used that to continue the hole I started with a standard drill bit. Aside from that, it was just a matter of plugging the power supply into the outlet behind my refrigerator and running the wire along the baseboard to my front door. I bought some little nail-in clips to keep the wire against the baseboard. I did email Ohmkat and asked how to wire in a door chime. I received a quick reply from the vendor that included an easy-to-understand diagram and also a comment notifying me that Ohmkat was about to release their own plug-and-play door chime compatible with the power supply. I decided to wait for that and I'm glad I did. I'll review that separately.The Nest Hello seems to be working just fine with this power supply. The power provided is obviously enough to power the doorbell, with the built-in camera, and the chime. Some people have deducted stars because this unit is more expensive than a standard transformer and most third party power supplies. To me, having a turnkey product that is designed to power the Nest Hello and a chime, and includes circuit protection, is worth the price. I recommend this product.

I've had this power supply (+ 1 extension cable) installed for just about 6 months and it has worked flawlessly since day 1. I'm glad white is an option as it blends nicely with the trim. Can't really ask for anything else out of the product.You may find that there are similar products listed for less, but I would highly recommend spending a bit more for quality and customer service. I recently had what I thought was an issue with this power supply, so I emailed Ohmkat and got a reply back in 6 minutes. They apologized and sent out a replacement immediately. As it turns out, the problem was on my end, but I'm glad to have experienced this so I know that if I do need assistance in the future, it will not be a painful process. Happy to see that Ohmkat is a "local" small biz in the States as well!

Made installing a Nest Hello in a house without existing doorbell wiring simple. My OhmKat powered Nest Hello doorbell works perfectly.In my case there was a baseboard level wall plug 18 inches from the interior door jam molding. Purchased a 12 inch long 3/16 inch "installer" drill bit here on Amazon, made some careful measurements, and drilled a hole from the edge of the interior door jam molding through to the exterior position of the doorbell. After threading the OhmKat power lead through the hole and connecting the Nest Hello, I used small wire staples to run the OhmKat power cable along the edge of the door molding down to the baseboard molding, then along the baseboard to the wall plug outlet. Painted the OhmKat cable to match the wall and molding and the installation is almost invisible.Note to OhmKat: Please consider offering a version of your product in white. It would make the device blend in well for your customers with white walls, or make painting the cable a one coat process for others.

Doorbell easy to install and works very well. No problems in relatively cold conditions (minus 20 C)
