Hi all, my Unifi Doorbell just died after only 4 years of service. I’ve been pretty disheartened with them lately, other products haven’t lived up to the company’s promise.
So I’m not looking to replace my networking stack yet, but I am looking for a doorbell camera. I only have the Unifi machine, but I also have an extensive docker/kubernetes stack, and mostly I want to use it with Home Assistant.
Any recommendations? Open to software, hardware, you name it. I have a few other Unifi cameras too, if they could be brought into the fold while I slowly migrate, I’d be interested. Thanks!


That’s weird. I have never had a doorbell fail. My current doorbell is a 1990’s system that goes to mini crt displays in the house. Kind of like this
It’s over 25 years old.
I also have several noname IP cameras around the outside and they’ve never failed. One is almost 10 years old now.
