Note: The battery life varies depending on usage. In most common cases, a doorbell may have up to 15 events per day and each recording lasts 20 seconds on average. Under this scenario, the doorbell battery life can last up to 4 months.

STEP 4 FINDING A MOUNTING SPOT

Find a Mounting Spot

Take the Video Doorbell to your front door and check the live view on the eufy Security app at the same time. Find a position where you can get the desired field of view.

Consider the below factors:

1. Check if you can reuse the existing holes and anchors on the wall or door frame.
2. If you want to place the doorbell close to a side wall, make sure the wall doesn't show up in the field of view. Otherwise IR light will be reflected and night vision will become blurry.
3. If you are drilling the mounting holes for the first time the recommended mounting height is 48" / 1.2m from the ground.
4. Use the 15^ mounting wedge as a supplementary mounting bracket if you wish to see more on a specific side.
