What I wanted is to keep using my Honeywell D117 Ding-Dong chime, even though it runs on 8 – 16V.

So the Unifi Doorbell has if we look at the hardware, more features than the Ring or Nest doorbells. Besides the obvious camera, the Unifi Protect doorbell also has a nice little display for a personal message and a small floodlight at the bottom. Additional Chimes can be wired to the original Chime, to provide better sound coverage ? an additional or alternative transformer may also be required
