Loud and clear ringer and works with Ring Video Doorbell
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 March 2018
Verified Purchase
Very nice doorbell ringer, gets extremely loud and clear sound which was exactly what I was looking for and has a nice range of features (namely the elegant edge light and the ability to mute for a set amount of time). Also has a nice range of sounds, I have it set to the big ben chime as it lasts for a good amount of time.

So initially I had a few issues trying to get get this to work with my Ring Video Doorbell however after a lengthy phone conversation with Ring support (who were extremely helpful) I managed to get it to work. For those that are curious about how I got it working, Firstly you will need an 8/12volt and 1Amp rated transformer for this to work properly. The transformer wires plug into the AC1 (postive) and AC2 (ground) terminals of the Honeywell ringer. Then one side of the Ring Video Doorbell needs be wired to the A1 terminal of the Honeywell unit and the other side needs to be wired into AC2 ground terminal (not A2) as it shows you in the Honeywell instructions. Once this is done the white ring should be lit up on the Ring Video Doorbell to indicate it is wired. Also note that the diode that comes with the Ring is not required and you will also need to fit batteries in the Honeywell ringer unit.

In conclusion great unit and does what it says on the tin. My only gripe with it is, as others have stated, the instructions are a little vague and could be more clear. It would be nice to have a more range of sounds also.

Happy that I can keep my old wired doorbell system but now extend it with this Honeywell DW915S
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 December 2022
Verified Purchase
Firstly, thanks to all those previous reviewers whose kind reviews alerted me to the possibility that this was not going to be straight-forward unless I did some of my own research before buying.

The look and feel of this product is great and it has a lot of fancy customisable features.
This product is very clever and tries to offer many combinations of configurations depending on what you need. This includes the ability to either replace or extend your wired doorbell system while at the same time trying to consider if your current wired doorbell box has no battery, is battery powered, or is powered by a transformer.
Once I spent time working stuff out, I bought the system – the connections worked fine and I got it running quite quickly once it arrived. But I have to stress that the most important thing to do is to understand for yourself what you are trying to achieve BEFORE purchasing this item and knowing how your current wired doorbell system is set up. Otherwise, you will get tripped up or will assume that the product does something it does not.
In my case, I have a very simple ding-dong wired doorbell box that is connected to its own power supply (an 8V transformer) that has a button push doorbell and none of which I am not going to replace. It is very old and came with the house so I have no idea of the actual manufacturer, but it seems to be the equivalent of a “Friedland Traditional Wired Door Chime D107 Facet” – yes ��غ�� also sells these as well – see https://amzn.eu/d/7WrvH39. It works well and I don’t fancy drilling more holes in the front door.

My intention is to keep the old system (wired doorbell button, doorbell case and chime, transformer) but I wanted to extend the system so that the Honeywell DW915S box sits upstairs because we did not always hear the current doorbell chime when it rang. Put another way, I was keeping all the old wired stuff (button and box) and essentially just adding the Honeywell as a fancy box so that it also rang upstairs when the current downstairs wired system rang. Therefore, as well as buying the Honeywell DW915S I also needed to buy 4 x LR14 C type batteries and some bell wire to join this up with the old doorbell chime box. I do not have a second doorbell (wired or otherwise) and did not buy the Honeywell wireless doorbell.

As I mentioned, I opened up my existing wired bell box and checked the connections. In my case, the 1st terminal was a direct connection from one side of the transformer; the 2nd terminal was from one side of the doorbell button, and the third terminal had both the other side of the transformer as well as the connection from the other side of the doorbell button. My set-up matches the wiring of that on the Friedland D107 (see rollover picture on ��غ�� of D107 Facet) so is relatively common. However, I took a very long time to check the power (yes it is between 8 volts -10 volts AC) and I was 100% sure of which cable was power or button or a combination of both.
In terms of the Honeywell DW915S I have included photos of the contents of what has arrived.

BIG TIP - As other people have mentioned, the only instructions included is a diagram on a folded piece of A4 (“User Guide” indeed!) that has no words and is useless. Put this straight in the bin.
You should instead download the “installation manual” and scan through Page 3 to work out which scenario you are looking to use. In my case it was Scenario two (expansion of a wired doorbell system) so I just connected a long set of two bell wires that I ran from the old box to the Honeywell terminals A1 and AC1.

If your scenario is not listed in the wiring diagrams in the “Instruction Manual” then it is probable that this product is not for you. The wording on each scenario is very specific – you should take note about words like “potential-free” (i.e.is not powered), “expansion”, “replacement”, “direct connection” – these are clear guidelines on what you need to check out in your own current set up before purchasing this and it tries to indicate what this device can therefore do for you. The wiring diagrams also make it clear that you will usually have to use batteries with the unit – I think that the only exception is if you are leaving this on the wall as a replacement for your old system altogether. Having said that I did not trying to power it via USB rather than batteries – I just couldn’t face running any more wire to be honest.

If you have not got a clue about the setup of your current wired system, then you should be wary as this may not be for you unless you take advice. However, if you want to extend or replace your current wired bell box but keep the wired doorbell then this can work for you, but you do need to know how your current system is powered. There are options in-between and beyond this, but you need to think this through before purchasing. Also, this system allows other add-ons so although expensive may work for you if you’re looking to do more than just extend your wired system.

A long review but I hope someone finds the experience useful.

A long review but I hope someone finds the experience useful.

This is a nice unit which I installed to replace an old wired unit, installed as a wired installation and wall mounted.

Installation was fairly straightforward, although I did need to adjust my existing transformer as that bad boy was pumping out 14.8V and this unit is rated for 8-12V. No big deal, most have 2 or more settings so just switched one wire over and boom, I had 9.6V of perfection.

The connectors are push-fit and only take one wire. My original set-up had 3 wires to the transformer connection to distribute power to the front and rear bell pushes; this unit assumes you will feed those from the transformer whereas it is of course much more convenient to run the paired wire to a single location. Easily sorted with a connector or a twist and a drop of solder, but would be nice if Honeywell recognised this as I suspect it will be quite common. Note also the wiring diagrams included don't include this scenario.

Once wired up, the unit came to life and delivers as expected. We have different chimes for front and back door, with different colour halos. I like that the unit halo flashes for a few seconds after the bell rings and of course this feature is great for anyone with hearing impairment.

I am planning to also pair a portable unit for garden purposes. I'm hoping this can be done without the need for the wireless converter as it should pair with this unit (as it acts as a range extender) but yet to be seen.

Overall though, this is a great door chime that has retrofitted easily to my 1970s installation.

I bought this to work with my Nest Doorbell. As doorbells go, I really can't see how they could improve on this. It really is an excellent bell. A good range of bell themes, good control of the volume from low to very loud, works of batteries or a mains transformer, and add in the ability to connect to other devices such as a motion detector.
It's a really good bell unit.
