Good for the money
I have it for a month now so far it's working well,except few times didn't detect us going to the house!The battery is showing that is draining too fast maybe because I didn't reduce the zones of detection. Worth of for the money and no subscription, as you can use memory card. Picture is nice and clean

Battery Video Door Bell
I bought the door bell and hub combination from Argos as it a very good price and fitted my needs, slightly disappointed that the battery life is not as suggested, a few tweeks later and it appears to be lasting a little longer, quality of video is excellent.

Good images from camera. Setup is mostly easy
Good images accessible via my phone. The hub/chimer needs to be mains plugged and close to my internet router. Setup was mostly easy but instructions not always easy to follow - took me a bit of trial and error to enable the link between the phone and hub/chimer.

Great Door Bell
I fitted this onto my Moms house, she is very happy with it, and you don't need to have a subscription because it has got its own local SD card so no monthly cost to pay.

Tapo D239S1
So far really happy with purchase. Ordered online and it was available to pick up the following morning at our local Argos. Very easy to install with good instructions, even for a novice like myself it was difficult to go wrong. Happy with operation of bell and camera. Chime is loud enough to hear from upstairs and pictures are crystal clear even at night. It comes with a hub that connects to your router and you just put in a micro sd card to capture any movement without the need for any monthly subscriptions.

Great product
It is a very good door bell camera, the only thing we found anoying was having to buy a memory card to be able to view properly.

Hello there,
After checking with our supplier, they have advised for the TP-Link Tapo D230S1 2K Battery Video Doorbell & Chime/Hub: The Tapo D230S1 Smart Video Doorbell connects to your Wi-Fi network through its Hub (Tapo H200), not directly to your router. This hub acts as a bridge between the doorbell and your router, which improves reliability.
The suggested distances is as below:
Link
Max Recommended Distance
Router ↔ Hub (Tapo H200)
~10-15 meters indoors (Wi-Fi)
Hub ↔ Doorbell (D230S1)
~15-25 meters indoors (~50-80 ft)
Thank you for using Q&A.

Hello There
After contacting our suppliers they have advised for the TP-Link Tapo D230S1 2K Battery Video Doorbell & Chime/Hub.
The detection range of the Tapo D230S1 — a battery-powered video doorbell — isn't fixed, but it generally cuts in at around 8–9 metres when the PIR sensor is set to maximum sensitivity.
Although, the actual performance depends on:
Object size (people vs cars vs small animals)
Movement type (fast, deliberate steps vs subtle or slow movements)
Sensor sensitivity, angle, and mounting height
Thank you for using Q&A.
Hi,
The Detection Range Test feature allows you to test the battery camera's activity detection zone. This diagnostic tool is instrumental in mapping out the battery camera's detection range, ensuring that it encompasses the intended surveillance area. By conducting this test, you can verify that the camera's field of detection is aligned with your security needs, guaranteeing comprehensive coverage.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hi Chestnut,
Yes, there is a RJ45 Ethernet Cable included in the package.
