Absolutely right! Plus you don't have to pay for a monthly subscription. Although it is an option, you can also just SD card and never pay monthly!

Awesome! Enjoy! Let me know if you have any questions!

Awesome. Thank you very much. Ya if you'd like one of the motion sensors I can send you one. Do you want to email me at threadchemistrytshirts@gmail.com so I can get your mailing address, etc?

Hey thank you. Ya I give some stuff away on occasion but only on new videos. I do have quite a few eufy products. I just bought the new floodlight so I'll be replacing the old eufy floodlight. Replaced this door lock of course. And also bought the new 24/7 recording 2 cam package and the new single cam solar that will run on cellular data if wifi drops. So I'm have a couple of the older cameras for sale also. I am in the middle of making videos for them all but if you have any ?s in the meantime feel free to ask.

Thank you. Mu h appreciated!

Thank you. I appreciate that.

Thank you. Yes I have some motion sensors and the garage opener cam

Haha yep. Sorry I already fave out the motion detector. Check the next video though! I'll be doing it in every video..

I don't remember. If I didn't show 1 in the unboxing then no. Its just a standard charger. The old USB charger.

When you turn your deadbolt back and forth. Does it slightly catch on your door frame?

@@threadchemistry It goes in all the way. It will lock manually but not lock electrically. When I turn the deadbolt I can tell that there is a slight catch in it to where it doesn’t turn smooth all the way but it will turn and lock. When I try to calibrate it, it only turns 3/4 of the way and says it’s stuck.

Yes that is bc it's catching. The deadbolt has to have a smooth transition in and out or it will detect obstructions and won't close. No worries though. Pretty simple fix..

So what you want to do is remove the screws and strike plates which you probably just installed. Take those out. If u have a small dremel tool or even a small chisel just slightly chip slivers of wood on whatever side is sticking. (You will need to find that out first) and slowly widen your deadbolt hole until turning that deadbolt is smooth as silk.

Sounds much more difficult typing it out. It's fairly simple. If you need any help just ask! Hopefully that helps.

Very cool! Do u mean can u put a 3rd in the strike plate on the door frame? If so then no you cannot. You could try to use a slightly thicker screw. I was able to get the long screws in mine though so I would assume you could also? A 3rd would just be overkill. If they can get passed the 2 then they have a battering ram and 3 won't make much difference. Hahah

@@threadchemistry Thanx you i mean can i drill a screw in a metal door too? or only installation this in a wood doors?

@latendresseaa I guess I've never seen a metal door. But if it's aluminum or just a strip of metal I don't see why you couldn't with a little elbow grease, but don't quote me on that. I would have to see the door but my guess is there has to be a way to screw in. Is there not one there already?

Does that make sense?

You just have to really tune in the settings. Maybe change from "human detection" to "any motion" that will capture every movement. But if you knock the scale down in the "any motion" action it won't detect as much of junk going by, more humans. (Larger) Aiming it at a certain angle can have impact. Just takes some trouble shooting. I don't ever have problems and that's all I ever did. Hope this helps!

Bahaha! That's what I aim for! Thank you Renae!

Keep about 40 clean pairs on hand. Different colors. All Airmax Plus from my guy Tinker.

They may have appreciated more than certain stocks! By the way was the lock easy to install?

Ya pretty simple

What do you mean by service?

Bahh yep!!

Needless to say, my buddy that had to sit outside and listen to that the whole time while I kept him locked out was pretty annoyed.

@@threadchemistry totally worth it

Absolutely

It's a classic isn't it. Haha

@@threadchemistrydefinitely

Hey! Good call on this! I did check on it. So there is a reset button, however, that is only to reset the unit if there is maybe a glitch I assume. Because after I held it down for a few seconds it did reset, but it did not affect anything. After less than a couple of seconds, the code, my fingerprint, the camera, etc all worked exactly like they should. I'm saying it will still lock and unlock only how you have it set up even after pressing the reset. So there is no way for anyone to tamper with it that way.. I hope this answers your question! Great question btw!

@@threadchemistry Thank you for testing this function! I still think that reset button should be on the inside unit (like other smart locks) to prevent a stranger playing with it and making the unit non functional for a short time.

It's never noon functional. It's simply a fail safe for the owner.

Thank you very much! I appreciate it

Wow, that's a lot of mess in 1 unit. If it's not connecting to your phone remotely there's a problem with it. The fingerprint could maybe troubleshoot but would be pointless if it's not working in the app. The 1st thing I would try is removing the device from the app completely and then re-download and setting it back up. Give that a try. Does your fingerprint just not match up so it's denying you or are you saying it just doesn't do anything at all?

@@threadchemistry The finger print was working for about two days after it was installed, after that it couldn’t read the finger print, and when I tried more than three times it lockes itself and denies access! Since then I’ve been using the codes only to lock and unlock. I am planing to travel soon, that’s why I wanted the remote to work for emergency reasons

@seekfactsnotfiction9056 well I'm guessing when u first registered the print you had some residue on it so it's technically not reading your print now. You can just re enter your prints. Make sure you're covering your whole finger. As for the remote. I'm not sure. Like I said I would reset the entire thing and set it back up and hope it works. If not You could also try and contact someone at support@govee.com. they might be able to answer for you. Or third, exchange for a new one! Ha. I'm sorry the app not working boggles my mind. Never heard or seen that problem so I can't offer you much advice unfortunately.

@@threadchemistry I didn’t say the whole App is not working! I only meant the lock and unlock icon inside the App was not working. It shows if it’s locked and not if the door is unlocked, but if I try to lock or unlock from phone App that lock button doesn’t do the command, idk if it’s something related to wifi connection, but I’ll try to reset and see what happens You think the simcard has anything to do with all this by any chance? Thanks

@seekfactsnotfiction9056 it doesn't have anything to do with wifi or any SD or memory cards. It's something on the back end that isn't working. Something in the app in preventing it.. try the reset. If not you can try govee support, but personally, I would just return for a new one and not deal with the headache. But hopefully your reset will work.. make sure you completely delete and remove the device completely from the app.

You got it..

Hah. I haven't given it away yet. Hint - I may give it away in a new video coming up soon. So maybe check that out.. ))

You mean the little black wire with the gold end?

Yes!? What’s it for? We ended up installing it and video, sound, and camera works but the bolt doesn’t lock on the app. But we don’t think that’s related? We can manually lock and unlock it but the app detects that bolt might be in the way. Is this somehow connected to that black wire with the gold tip?

It could be but it could also be your deadbolt. Is it tough to turn when locking? Or does it kind of catch at some point slightly as you're rotating it?? That will cause the notification and lock not to lock via the app. So I actually cannot get an answer to what it is. However, if want to warranty it out, Eufy is extremely good about that and I have the info to make it extra easy. I would suggest going that route. You never know what it might affect down the road even if nothing now..

I also spoke with Eufy and they said that could be a number of wiring problems inside. They recommend doing a warranty claim also.

Thank you so much! I’m actually on the phone right now with them and the warranty process does seem straightforward. We were worried they wouldn’t honor warranty since we bought it from Amazon and this was a couple of months ago (we just moved into our home so the Eufy doorbell was sitting in its package for months lol). The funny thing is, we calibrated the doorbell in the app and that fixed the unlocking/locking feature. So, the app, chime, camera, audio, pin, fingerprint, and self-lock work. SO, we have no idea why that little black wire is for and even customer support didn’t know and they just recommended warranty. I told them, “why not just make that little wire longer! 🤣.” Were worried we’ll have same problem with second doorbell. It’s very difficult to connect it AND connect it to the back panel. 😭

👍

😆😆 You know it!! Classic..

))

I will sell you the garage opener and cam.

You want it?

Good call

😁😁😆😆 you got it!! You want a eufy motion sensor?

@@threadchemistry Sure

If u want to email me I can get your shipping info and send 1 out. threadchemistrytshirts@gmail.com

No thank you! I very much appreciate that
