True. Unfortunately I don't qualify for any of those. I think they have for senior citizens as well. Have you heard a anything about their Black Friday deals. Wonder if they'll have the same.
I haven't heard about any Black Friday or Cyber Monday deals yet but it's a possibility.

So easy even a caveman can do it! (no kidding!). Just make sure to pair up the sensors before...I never used the screws and used just the 3m tape and it's been mounted for 6 months.

And yes, u get home owners ins. discount as well. I have AAA and just called them and gave them the police permit # (I'm in CA and for house alarms, we require a yearly permit).

However, while the base station will work Wifi as well (connected to your router), I HIGHLY recommend running a Cat6 cable and get it connected wired.

With WiFi, the door/entry sensors worked fine but my outdoor HD Cam would lose connection every few weeks (or phone app would give a "blank" video). Ring customer service recommened wired connection. I ran a cat6 thru the wall and now it's flawless.

To think I wasted $54/month on ADT last 7 years ....the kicker is when I cancelled ADT, they bloody deactivated the whole system remotely (even though I technically I own it). But it was a old system and Ring is tons better.
Yes I hear horror stories for the Adt customer service or lack of. Their sales rep was arguing with me how the ring got hacked and that Adt can't. Lol. I think they're doing something with nest. So I got rid of my nest setup before I installed it. I hear google is quick to cut off support.

Does the range extender help?

I want to get camera system as well. But I prefer hard wired to wireless and something with NVR.

Are first generation keypad and motion sensors compatible with second generation? I want to upgrade my previous generation system but I also want to use old sensors.
Are Ring Alarm 1st gen and 2nd gen devices compatible?

"Yes, all Ring Alarm security devices are compatible with every Base Station. You can mix and match 1st and 2nd generation Ring Alarm Contact Sensors, Motion Detectors, Range Extenders, Keypads and third-party devices with any Ring Alarm Base Station. These devices are designed to work together.

If you've started with a 1st generation Ring Alarm kit, you can add 2nd generation devices to your Alarm Base Station. If you buy a new 2nd gen Alarm Kit, you can add both 1st gen and 2nd gen devices to your Alarm Base Station."

I already have the alarm, but might pick this up. I need some additional contact sensors for windows. A 6-pack is $99. I can add a second keypad and alarm on the second floor for $30 more.

Just bought this and installed this week. Long time vera user and this system is a huge improvement IMHO. $10 a month for the monitoring service is a great deal.
What if WiFi goes out? Thanks

" Your Ring Alarm usually communicates with you or your monitoring service through the internet via wifi or an Ethernet cable. Any time your Base Station loses its connection to the internet, regardless of the cause, a cellular backup system kicks in that will allow the system to continue to monitor your home."

GOOGLE is my friend

Are these sensors overly large? I've read they are a bit larger than a Simplisafe. Also, is this as usual that you can pay a $5 charge of not a Costco member?

Any input as to Ring v. Simplisafe?

Used to have Vivint and got fed up of the high cost. I switched to Ring last year and have been really happy. I got the retrofit kit and all my hardwired sensors are now connected. Plus got the Ring doorbell with the 1 year monitoring deal. Overall a very satisfied customer.
What is your reason of buying the retrofit instead of individual wireless sensors? Wireless sensors cost not much more than the retrofit. I'm on the fence whether to buy the retrofit or just pay a little more for more sensors to add onto my current wireless ring set up I have current.

Excellent price. I got mine for $189 earlier this year and kicked ADT ($55/month).

I've had it for 6 months now and only had one failed sensor and Ring replaced it for free. I also paired the outdoor Solar HD Cam (it integrates with this set).

Had tripped alarm when I was out of town and Ring customer service quickly called me within mins. I knew it was false as I went into the Ring app on my phone and I monitored the camera and didnt see any activity outside my house. Ring sent my local police to my house . Then called me back in 30 mins staying police confirmed it was a false trip. Ring rep reset the alarm.

Satisfied customer for $10/month.
Just a heads up. Ring allows you to prepay the year for $100 vs the $10 per month, another $20 off vs competitors..

Am curious to know how long the sensors can be expected to remain mounted using just the tape. Anyone know?

Haven't decided yet where to place the Ring sensors on the door/window frames. I have existing sensors from my working, but now-unmonitored, non-Ring alarm. Figured I'd use both alarms concurrently until I'm satisfied enough to disconnect/remove the non-Ring alarm.

From what I've read, the systems are compatible with one another.

Going on 2 years with the original sensors. And they are still up. No issues.

If your current system is wired, ring sells an adapter to use the old sensors with the new ring alarm.
