Yes, connect Reolink Video Doorbell v1 to existing chimes!

The #reolink video doorbell can not be connected to your existing chime with the connected wires. Not on the Wifi or PoE version.
This is a problem if you want to keep using your existing chimes, electronic or mechanical.
Fortunately, the Reolink doorbell v1 sends a wireless signal to the Reolink wireless chime.
!! Reolink v2 does not work with this receiver since v2 uses 900MHz !!
This wireless signal can be used in combination with a standard 433MHz receiver. This receiver can then activate your existing doorbell chime.
It is easy to do this.
Disconnect the doorbell switch and connect those wires to the wireless receiver. This receiver will act as the doorbell switch.
The wireless receiver needs to be powered by a 12 volt DC power adapter.
Then connect the Reolink doorbell to the supplied power adapter as described in the manual.
Press the learn button on the wireless receiver and
Press the Reolink doorbell button.
The Reolink doorbell is now working with your existing chimes!

    Maybe you can do a video showing actually how the connections are made. The Michael guy just keeps saying follow the schematics, which is not clear enough for many of us. The bought the adapter and a 433mhz receiver. Have the wifi version of reolink but not understanding what's connecting the reolink doorbell to the adapter and so forth.

    Nice work - thanks for sharing. I did this slightly differently, by fitting a 3A 12V transformer to run everything. I cut the wiring to the bell push and chime, then used the +12V to power the receiver and the Reolink doorbell. Once that was working I wired the chime between the receiver's "Common" and "Negative", and connected "Normally Open" to "Positive". It worked okay, but I have a "ding-dong" bell which only rings when power is connected or disconnected. To make it ring three times, I installed a timer relay between the receiver and the chime, and set it to On for half a second and off for a second. End result, I get a nice "ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong" when someone presses my doorbell :) Thanks for sharing the secret about the availability of the receiver relays! The one I used was a little different, but the key is to find one that's advertised as using the "Princeton" or "EV1527" protocol.

    Don't think there is a power adapter supplied with the Reoling POE doorbell. There is a power adapter supplied with the WIFI version, but this is 24V DC. You cannot use this directly with the wireless receiver, since this needs 12V DC.

    It's a good solution but what I really wanna do is solder in a second or throw on top of the existing button a second GPIO button that somehow shorts the 2 AC wires from my existing 10W transformer, then I power and leverage video via POE. Reliability of analog but with the convenience and features of digital - haven't seen it done yet but I'm sure it's possible without a relay - just need to engineer a way to terminate the AC wires and short them while keeping the rest of the device intact

    Ran into 2 issues, 1. My doorbell chime wires had to be shorted to power the Reolink doorbell. So I needed a 2nd power source for the chime. I end up using the adapter from the reolink doorbell package. 2. The DieseRC 433Mhz Universal Wireless Remote Control that was linked did not want to learn the signal from my Reolink doorbell(wifi version), not sure if it is because Reolink changed it or something. However I then remember I had broadlink pro with RF remote. I end up using that through the home assistant integration. non-issue issues 3. There is no way to set the chime that was included with the Reolink doorbell on a schedule. Because of that, if I were to have succeeded in connecting the Reolink doorbell directly to the DieseRC 433Mhz Universal Wireless Remote Control, I would have no way to control when it snoozes without another smart switch.
