Question 1

These seem like they are easy to get stolen. Does Ring replace them if stolen like for the doorbells?

Accepted Answer

I don't know why there are such negative responses to this valid question. When Ring released their doorbell, one of their famous guarantees was that they would replace it if it was stolen.  Now that Ring has expanded to other devices that are even easier to have stolen (like these lights), it makes sense to ask whether their guarantee covers all of their devices or just certain ones.  Geez people.

Question 2

Is the only way to power these are they D batteries?  I would prefer low voltage wiring option if available.

Accepted Answer

Seems strange they didn’t launch with a “cartridge” the size of 4D cell batteries with 12V (AC/DC) > 6V mini power supply integrated with a few fly leads coming out of it to immediately retrofit into existing low voltage landscape lighting setups. 
No way do I want to maintain disposable batteries in the yard lighting. 
Also integrate a rechargeable battery in that adapter cartridge so there is always power available during the day for the motion detectors, then charges up at night when the landscape lighting comes in. 
At night after the landscape lighting goes off , the motion detector would run off the rechargeable batteries and if lights needed to come on , it would just instruct the main 12v landscape circuit to come ON. 
Without that programming logic built into the unit , even if I make a tried to make a power adapter cartridge for this , it wouldn’t be any good without the battery and smart power control logic......

Question 3

Can you setup a schedule to turn on the lights at a certain time and disable the motion sensors?

Accepted Answer

The lights by default are dimmed if enabling dawn to dusk, but that can be disabled. Other than dawn to dusk, there is no apparent scheduling.  Note that keeping the lights for longer durations than during motion events will eat into your battery life VERY quickly.  Estimates for one year battery life are based on about 8-10 lights-on events per evening over one year.  Duration of each lights-on event is listed as 20 seconds, but the shortest event duration setting I found in the app is for 30 seconds after motion is detected.  Can be longer, but doing so again cuts into the battery life.

Question 4

Batteries included?

Accepted Answer

Batteries are not included.  I recommend using rechargeable batteries  because during winter (increased dark hours and increased cold) the batteries only last a couple months.  I have 8 of these lights and I keep two extra sets of batteries charged up and ready. Overall I love the lights and how much control i have over them--these are actually "smart" lights with a lot of user control.  But you pay a premium for the light and batteries.
