TECKNET Wireless Doorbell with 2 Receivers (1300ft) – IP65 Waterproof Plug-in Doorbell, 120dB Loud, RGB Light
Product description
What it is and why people buy it
A wireless doorbell with two plug-in receivers is the sort of thing you notice only when it’s missing. When a visitor arrives, you want the sound (and ideally a light) to reach the rooms you actually use. This TECKNET wireless doorbell is built around that simple promise: an ultra-long “1300ft / 400m” range on paper, plus IP65 weather resistance and a loud 120dB output.
If you’re placing the push button outside (for example at a front path, side gate, or back garden door), the IP65 waterproof rating is a key part of the appeal. And with two receivers, you can cover multiple areas without relying on one single unit to be heard everywhere.
The essentials at a glance
This model is a cordless wireless doorbell system with:
- Long-range wireless link stated as 1300ft / 400m (described as stable and “free from interference with other home devices”).
- IP65 waterproof transmitter for outdoor use.
- Operating temperature range of -20°C to 60°C, aimed at harsh weather across the year.
- RGB light options plus 3 modes: sound only, RGB flash only, or sound + RGB flash.
- Volume and melodies: 60 chimes and 5 volume levels.
- Smart memory: it remembers your last settings after a power outage.
It’s also designed for straightforward installation: plug in the receivers (no batteries required for them) and mount the push button using screws or adhesive.
Key takeaways: what you’ll notice day to day
The “day-to-day” difference here is the mix of loud audio and visual signalling. With up to 120dB and 5 volume levels, it’s clearly aimed at households where you might not always hear a doorbell from another room, or where background noise makes subtle chimes hard to catch.
Then there’s the RGB light. On paper, that’s useful in a few practical situations: quiet times when sound is less desirable, or environments where a flashing visual cue is easier to notice than relying on audio alone. If you’ve ever missed someone knocking because you were watching TV or upstairs and the sound didn’t travel, this is the type of feature set you’d be buying for.
That said, one limitation to keep in mind: the system’s real-world performance will still depend on your home layout and where you mount the push button and plug in the receivers. A claimed 1300ft range is encouraging, but it doesn’t automatically guarantee perfect coverage in every property.
Weatherproof and power: built to last (but check your placement)
The push button/transmitter is described as IP65 waterproof and resistant to heavy rain, snow, and scorching heat. It also states an operating range from -20°C to 60°C. Over the UK seasons, that’s exactly the kind of rating you want when the bell lives outdoors all year.
Power is another part of the story. The transmitter uses an ultra-low consumption CR2032 battery, with a stated lifespan of up to 4.5 years. That’s the sort of figure that matters if you don’t want to be changing batteries every couple of months.
A practical note: you’ll still want to mount the push button in a sheltered-ish spot where possible, even with IP65 protection, just to reduce exposure to direct impact, constant wetting, or accidental bumps.
What stands out—and where it may not be the best fit
This TECKNET set makes the most sense when you want:
- Two covered rooms/locations via the two receivers.
- Outdoor use for the push button thanks to IP65 waterproofing.
- More than just sound, thanks to RGB flashing options.
- A loud doorbell (up to 120dB) with selectable volume.
It might be less ideal if your main goal is a discreet, low-noise chime system, because 120dB is very much “loud and clear” territory. Also, if your home is small and you only need one room covered, paying attention to whether you actually need two receivers could be worth doing before committing.
Compatibility, setup and the checklist before you buy
The setup approach is simple: receivers plug in, and the push button is mounted using screws or adhesive. No batteries are needed for the receivers themselves, while the transmitter uses the CR2032 battery.
Before you buy, it’s sensible to check a few purchase-relevant points:
- Where you’ll place receivers: coverage will depend on how your rooms are laid out.
- Outdoor mounting conditions: make sure the push button location suits weather exposure, not just theoretical waterproofing.
- Your preference for alerts: if you need visual reminders at times (or a sound + light combo), this model gives you the 3 modes.
- Chime choice: with 60 chimes and 5 volume levels, you can tailor it for different situations.
Is it worth it?
If you want a wireless doorbell system designed for outdoor resilience and better coverage across multiple rooms, this TECKNET model is a strong “proper doorbell” style pick. The IP65 rating for the push button, stated -20°C to 60°C operation, long-range connection on paper, and the combination of loud audio with RGB light modes are the main reasons it makes sense.
However, you may want to skip it if you’re after a subtle, low-volume chime setup, or if you only need a single receiver. Also, because range claims can’t account for every home layout, it’s worth thinking about where you’ll plug in the two receivers and how that maps to the rooms you care about.
