Ring Security Camera Homekit

Ecobee make great home security Cams. Working with HomeKit is an added bonus for me.

I did a lot of research when replacing my existing non-HomeKit friendly security system with a HomeKit friendly one. It does require an existing ecobee thermostat as a hub, but since I've been using one in my house for years, it was a no-brainer for me. All the sensors only take minutes to install and configure, and they immediately show up as first-order members of your HomeKit environment, ready to take part in automations. ecobee's Smart Security add-on is a worthwhile upgrade, even if you don't go with a fully monitored solution. All-in-all an excellent product, easy to install, easy to use, just what you'd expect ecobee to be like!

We built a new home two months ago and made Ring our security systems. It is so easy to use through out phones. We love to be able to check our door bell camera and back yard security camera when we are away. We live in a fairly seclude area now and the cameras and overall security the system offers us is very reasurring.

I use these to tighten my Schneider variable ND filter to the step down ring and then to my camera for added security. Works great won't damage your filters or adapters like a wrench will.

Setup was easy. It did not work with my very old mechanical chime as I expected so I use the chime function in Homekit to ring through my homepods. I like the snapshot feature and ability to talk and listen through the doorbell which does not require a subscription. Video and sound quality is very good. I already have cameras around my house that record and store video so I do not need the subscription service.

Works great. Integrates well with Apple HomeKit which was why we chose this camera.

The setup is easy. The confusion is whether you start with homekit or the WeMo app. The instructions provided indicate to start with the Weibo app which then triggers a firmware update and adding to HomeKit automatically. This makes sense since HomeKit currently does not upgrade firmware directly.

Works very well. Great for the security of the camera

Add these to your camera strap for extra security.

Had the Ring Pro doorbell and recently switched to the Lorex to incorporate with my security cameras, and I am amazed at how much clearer the picture and sound quality is. I’m very pleased with the results of the upgrade.
