Council garage Ring door bell?
Loosing my car storage I’ve had for last 12 years now, 2 of the cars are getting kept and going into a council garage near by.
I call it that so people understand the location and setup most usually are.
There’s nothing near by them, no power etc. and unfortunately no one to keep an eye on them. No amount of door security is going to help if they have 20 minutes to get in undisturbed anyway.
I have thought of getting a Ring Doorbell and putting it inside and should sometime get in the notifications will alert me that someone’s already gone too far and I or a friend can pop down to readvise them.
I know the doorbells battery so that’s easy, I know it needs WiFi for the notification aspect and monthly subscription for recordings.
I had thought of getting a Smarty data only sim for £5 a month. What I can’t figure out is how I make it permanent WiFi and to last as long as Ring doorbell ?
I used to have a WiFi router in my motorhome that ran off 12v (for when not on hookup) but remember vividly it would go on and off all the time, although simple to reconnect I can’t take the chance that it drops out at the moment the doorbell should have rang me.
Thankyou in advance
