FIGS. 7A and 7B are a front view and a rear view of a doorbell camera 106 in accordance with some implementations. The doorbell camera 106 integrates a camera module and a doorbell system within a device housing 702. The camera module includes a lens assembly 704 and an image sensor that are configured to capture images, and a wireless transceiver that is configured to exchange data with a remote server over one or more wireless communication networks. The doorbell system is configured to ring a remote chime device in response to a press on a button top 706 of a button assembly. The device housing 702 has a substantially elongated shape. Optionally, the elongated shape has a width that is less than a width of most doorframes available in the market, such that the doorbell camera 106 can be directly mounted on a commonly available doorframe. In some implementations, the lens assembly 704 of the camera module is disposed within a top half of the device housing 702, and the button top 706 of the doorbell system is disposed on a bottom half of the device housing 702. When the doorbell camera 106 is mounted on a wall surface or a doorbell frame, the lens assembly 704 is located on top of the button top 706, thereby allowing a field of view of the lens assembly 704 to remain clear when a user presses the button top 706. Referring to FIGS. 7A and 7B, in this example, the device housing 702 includes an elongated body and two semicircular ends, and the elongated body has a width substantially equal to a diameter of the two semicircular ends.

The RF SM AC includes adapters that will allow this Kidde model to be used with most existing hard wired smoke detector networks. It's not been tested by any experts we deem to be credible, nor is there a ton of user feedback, but what is available is fairly positive including a 4. 8 star score based on nearly 50 reviews at Home Depot. If you live in an area that requires a 10 year sealed battery, the Kidde i9010 Est. $25 is worth considering. This is a stand alone, ionization only smoke detector that's been around for a number of years. That may be why user reviews are a little mixed as the overarching complaint among those that are less than completely satisfied is that the smoke detector's battery petered out far sooner than the promised 10 years. Still, its satisfaction ratings are no worse than other cheap ionization smoke detectors that are similar. Examples include 4. 1 stars following nearly 400 reviews at Amazon, for example, and a rating of 4. 5 stars following more than 320 reviews at Home Depot, where this smoke alarm is sold as the Code One 21010019.
