Tried to look this up on google, but kept getting links to the new DUO cameras.
So I have 2 doorbells at my house, I’ve replaced both with the version 1 doorbell cameras.
I picked up a better 12v transformer, to power both cameras at once.
What I need help with is how to wire the cameras to the 12v transformer, and where to install the fuse for each doorbell.
I don’t intend to use the original chime, its already been removed.
You can’t do it. What doorbells are you using? Wyze v1, v2, pro or duo? Except for pro which is primarily a battery doorbell, you should have at least a 16v transformer for successful operation. What are your plans for a chime? Start by exchanging out the transformer, unfortunately, 12v was not a better choice. I have had all except the pro installed with 2 duos as my current and use a 24v/40vac transformer.
I got it working.
I am running 2 of the original V1 Doorbells.
And I already had upgraded the transformer to a 30va.
The only problem I am having is I can’t use 1 chime for two doorbells.
And now Wyze doesn’t sell the V1 door chime… wonderful.
Unfortunately, the v1 is 1 db/1 chime. Have you tried eBay or Amazon? May have some luck there. Too bad you bought obsolete product when you probably could have gotten the v2 for a good price and used your old house chime.
At some point, the Wi-Fi Chime that was introduced with Duo Cam Doorbell is expected to be available as a separate product, and, since it reportedly has the ability to work with any Wyze doorbell or camera model, that might be a future option for you. I wish I had an ETA on that, because it seems like it’s been a long time coming, and they were saying months ago that this might happen by December:
Unfortunately, that doesn’t really help you now, and the original Wyze Video Doorbell doesn’t support the “Cameras as Chime” feature (in case you happened to have other compatible camera models).
