Essential Info
The MyChime Wireless Door Chime and Bell Push with USB Sound Card is a great solution for homes that don't have a pre-wired doorbell for the front entrance. It will also work well with apartments, travel trailers, back entrances, garages, dorm rooms and offices. What sets this apart from similar products is the ability to pick your own song or sound for your door chime. You can choose the song or sounds you want to hear and simply download them onto the included USB sound card. The bell push unit communicates with the chime module via radio frequency (RF), and each are powered by battery, so no wires or professional installation is required. There are seven pre-loaded chime sounds available and an adjustable volume setting. The chime module is portable or can be mounted anywhere in the house up to 150 feet away from the bell push module. The bell push module is rated for outdoor use and has a UV resistant plastic housing with a rainproof push button. It can be mounted with included screws or double-sided tape. The modules have 16 adjustable address codes to prevent interference with other transmitters such as PIR movement detectors and telephone ring detectors. This all-in-one kit installs in minutes makes it easy to customize and convert sound files to chime tunes of your favorite band, holiday tune or sports team's fight song. The bell push module requires two AAA batteries and the chime module requires three Alkaline C batteries; batteries sold separately. Enhance the convenience of this wireless chime by adding an Additional Push Button. Hands-On ResearchThis product was extremely easy to use. After inserting batteries, I verified the modules were operating on the same code and the chime responded immediately after pressing the bell push. I cycled through the different pre-loaded chimes, which were easy to set by the two switch settings inside the bell push. I then wanted to test the USB sound card to add my own sounds. The software uploaded literally in seconds, and while the instructions aren't written the best, it was easy enough to follow, I added an acoustic song (as recommended) and trimmed it and downloaded it to the chime module in minutes. The sound quality is definitely diminished when the file is converted to the sound card as it does not sound as clear as the .mp3 file coming from my computer; but it is still cool way to personalize a custom sound to your home when visitors arrive.
