  2. Good product and good service. One piece of LR14 C Battery USB Power Supply Cable is used to replace 4 LR14 C batteries and the result is satisfactory. Overall very satisfied with this purchase,

  3. I’ve had one of these for quite a few years. It still works well.
    I’ve added a second chime to provide better coverage of sound throughout the home. Now I can hear the dang bell all over the house (which is what I needed).

  4. Our old model of this exterior doorbell extender took a crap. We own a small motel where guests need to ring doorbel to gain access to our in-house office. As we like to spend time in our back yard and gardening it has been great to be able to hear when someone arrives. After searching we were thrilled to find the exact same model, hooked it up, and have be so happy to have an outdoor ringer back. Very reasonable price too. Thank you!

  9. I was updating the old Rittenhouse Chime doorbell that I could no longer get parts for. The Carlon battery powered unit emulates the chime sound perfectly and was easy to install. Because it’s battery operated I could just mount it over the old real chime unit which is now a decorative antique. I’m very pleased to have the correct sound back. Hope the batteries last a long time, but they should be very easy to replace when the time comes.

  10. I wanted to expand my system in my house and already had 2. The new one worked as expected and would recommend it as an additional ringer.

  14. We wondered if the doorbell controller we got long ago could be compatible with something on the market today. Then we discovered 1800Doorbell. The price was good, it came quickly, in great shape, and works perfectly.

  16. I ordered 2 more of the Carlon wireless door chimes to extend the sound range of the door chime. They worked perfectly. I had to contact the company to insure they would work and they responded by email quickly and very nice. A phone call by me was necessary as well and the lady who helped me was knowledgeable, nice, and professional. I would highly recommend this product and this company. Great!

  17. I bought this for my dad who needed a second receiver. Was surprised how simple it was to set up the second receiver. Have had the 1st receiver for a few years & never a problem. Would recommend them!

  19. Our seven-year-old one failed, even after I changed batteries, so I bought a new one. It turned out that some of the unused batteries I put into it recently were bad, so I didn’t need to buy a new one after all. With fresh batteries, both the old one and the new one work just fine.

I have 2 Carlon RC8253R and need an additional receiver for another room. I installed a Ring video doorbell that works with the 2 existing RC8253R receivers. It is interesting that the numbers almost match (just a coincidence)? Norman Carlevato asked on 05/26/2025

Doorbell stopped working I put new button batteries on the outside button and new C batteries on the inside pack It's still not chiming. Should I assume something has malfunctioned with the outside button? Chenelle Thompson asked on 01/14/2024

Good afternoon. The issue is usually the outdoor button since it is out in the elements. You can try a replacement button and see if that fixes the issue, I have included a link for the button below. As long as your current system was manufactured after 2001, the button will sync up with your receiver. You can find the manufactured by date located on a round QC sticker on the back of your receiver. There will be several numbers printed on the sticker, the last two would be the manufactured by date. Thank you,
