So I am currently in contact with eufy support about my doorbell resetting the chime settings.
The original problem is this:
I have a mechanical chime, so I have set it to the corresponding setting as per manual instructions.
After a few days, I noticed that the ding-dong sound from my chime was delayed (not ding-dong, but ding…dong). So I set it (back) to mechanical and it worked again, no questions asked.
Earlier this week I noticed again that the bell lost the mechanical chime setting and there was a delay in the chime sound.
So the answer from support was as follows:
I have contacted our technician. This might because of the spring strength. The spring strength is not enough, and caused this kind of delay “ding …dong”.
But this will not affect the usage of this item. I hope you can understanding.
A bit of a strange answer, so I replied for clarification. Have yet to receive an answer to that.
So tonight I noticed (and was reminded of earlier incidents) where the LED around the button was on when it detects motion. I never liked that, so I turned it off since I got the device. It magically enables the LED again after some time, and it keeps doing that.
So my conclusion is that somehow the doorbell is not saving its setting correctly.
I am wondering if others have the same problem?
It might even be related to the homebase that emits no sound when the doorbell is rang: it does not save the setting to do so.
