I have the ring doorbell. Very good as it can double up as a security camera as it will record motion even if somebody doesn't ring your bell. |  |

I assume you don't have teenage kids? | |

Is that just the standard £89 one? Or a different one? | |

Really handy, for deliveries you can speak to them and tell them to stick under gate etc of you aren’t there |  |

I use mine to shout obscenities at the inlaws when they come to visit. They haven't worked where the voice comes from yet.
(Don't have one in truth, but can see they'd be there uses. If a bit aimed at the paranoid). |  |

I want one. I am not paranoid, I am just really anti social. |  | | |

I was going to ask how this changes Knock Down Ginger for kids. But now I see adults are doing it too. |  |

I wasn't meaning to imply that people that have them are paranoid. More that the marketing deems to be playing on people's paranoia. But yes, I can see they'd be equally suitable for miserable gits  . Or for deliveries, kids, etc. | |

It was around £160 but I think they have come down in price since I bought it two years ago. | |

My worry would be that anyone who came knocking with intent to rob the house would know that there is no-one at home as it is obvious the person is speaking from away and the house is not occupied. Those adverts on the telly make it all look so 'contrived'.
I guess I am just very security conscious anyway. |  | | |

True but they would also know their face has been clearly caught on camera. If they go on to break in they will be caught. | | | |

Apparently the theft of them from people's doors is the fastest growing crime in the uk, according to my policeman friend.
Because they cost a lot it's worth pinching them, the irony is funny. |  | | |

Ring will replace any stolen door bells. Which is pretty good, to be fair.
Think they are owned by Amazon now. |  | | |

and it gives a wide angle view so you can see if they are sneaking around the back so you'd either jump in the car or call the police. | |

I have one, it is really good. There is an optional subscription that goes with it. I also have 3 Blink cameras, they also great. |  |

Nice one, seems to be more positive feedback than not, so will definitely look in to getting one. | |

Yeah I pay £250 a month to record. It's great when we are away ands the kids stay at home as we can see who they have around the house.
I can also see when they are ordering Dominoes despite having a house full of food. | |

Recording isn't standard? £250 a month? Are you insane? | | | |

Very interesting. If someone is paying that to record each month, they must have some stuff worth stealing! Chamionship, Footers, wkj, Pickles, let's Oceans 11 this. |  |
