Installation was straightforward—just connect the wires to the doorbell and plug it in. No electrical work, no fuss. Once set up, the doorbell stays powered continuously, and I haven’t had to touch the battery since. The connection has been stable, and the doorbell responds faster than it did when running on battery alone. The cable length is generous enough to route neatly around the doorway, and the adaptor itself feels well-built and safe. It also runs quietly with no buzzing or warmth, which was something I checked for. If you’re using a Ring doorbell and want a simple, reliable way to keep it powered without dealing with battery swaps, this adaptor is definitely worth it. Review: A fantastic bit of kit, that is 💯% recommended & it does work with the Gen 2! - When I received my Ring Doorbell (Gen 2) as a present, I knew I wanted it hardwired as my memory isn't great and I would forget to charge the internal battery, although they are meant to last for a good number of months - depending on your settings. Also, I did not want to keep removing the security screws and risk loosing them!! Finding the plug in adapter was more challenging that I thought it would be, mainly because I didn't have a clue what it was called. After finding many alternative suppliers who stated their product can be used with the Ring, I wanted the OE item, and after more searching I was able to locate and purchase it!! I would say, it would be great to have options for the cable length, but as long as you think of your cable route prior to any action, then you'll need good. Overall I found installation was a lot easy than I had thought initially - I think I spent longer thinking and planning the cable routing haha. Connecting the wire to the Ring terminal screws located at the back is so easy, taking no time at all. After I had it all connected and just requiring mounting and the security screws, I accessed the doorbell via the app to check it was working and showing hardwired - which it did!! Overall the complete installation took no more than 45 minutes. I would recommend this to anyone, so you don't need to charge or replace batteries. I now have my Ring doorbell (Gen 2) set to the highest/best settings that would normally drain your battery, but now I see a better picture quality on both day and night and I have no issues with the motion detection, it only picks up on the area I set and nothing else. A little bit of kit, that is definitely worth the money! ## Features - Compatible with Ring Video Doorbell, Ring Video Doorbell (2nd Generation), Ring Video Doorbell 2, Ring Video Doorbell 3, Ring Video Doorbell 3 Plus, Ring Battery Video Doorbell Plus.

It basically keeps the battery fully charged at 100% and it’s the battery that keeps the ring bell working 24/7 **Q: Given wires are not black / red does it matter which way you fit them into the siren?** A: As per the Help section of the RING website: If you are connecting a Video Doorbell, it doesn't matter which cable is connected to which terminal. The device will work with either cable connected to either terminal. If you are connecting an Outdoor Siren, you must correctly connect the positive (+) and negative (-) sides. The negative cable can be identified by a ridge running the length of the cable. **Q: Does the device only record when the button is pushed? Suppose the button is not pushed, will it still record?** A: It will record when somebody presses the door bell but will also record when it is triggered by motion detection. So it will start recording when somebody is at your front door but doesn't actually press the door bell. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Simple Fix That Keeps My Ring Doorbell Powered 24/7 *by D***Y on 6 December 2025* ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Makes Life So Much Easier for Ring Doorbells I bought the Ring Plug-In Adaptor (2nd Gen) because I was tired of constantly recharging my doorbell battery, and it’s been a brilliant upgrade.

Once powered, the installation was very straightforward. The plug-in adapter works exactly as described and the device shows as hardwired in the app’s Device Health section, which is great for keeping it topped up. Overall, easy to set up and does exactly what it’s supposed to. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/422166985-ring-plug-in-adaptor-2nd-generation](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/422166985-ring-plug-in-adaptor-2nd-generation) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
