Can I replace my existing doorbell with TP-Link Tapo Doorbell?

Tapo doorbells allow you to see and interact with people at your door from anywhere with just your phone. However, not all doorbell systems are compatible with the Tapo doorbell. Your existing doorbell button must be a stand-alone push button. Integrated intercoms, gate systems, and entry controls are likely not compatible.

The voltage and power should fall within the range below.

How to check the voltage?

Use one of the following methods to help you check the voltage:

1. Find the voltage of your doorbell’s transformer

Typically, the transformers’ nameplate shows the voltage ratings. It is usually attached to the body of the transformer. If the voltage ratings are within the below range, then your doorbell system is compatible with Tapo Doorbell.

If you can’t find the transformer, check the following places:

• Inside your doorbell chime box
• Near your breaker or fuse box
• In the basement or crawl space under your home

2. Measure the voltage with a multimeter

Use a multimeter with metal probes for accurate measuring.

Warning: Take care of electric shock. If you are uncomfortable with basic wiring, please consult an electrician.

Following steps below to check the voltage of your doorbell:

1. Remove your current doorbell.
2. Disconnect the wires.
3. Measure the voltage using the multimeter.

3. Consult a local professional or electrician

Let a professional help you measure the voltage, upgrade your doorbell system if it’s not compatible with Tapo Doorbell, or install the Tapo Doorbell for you.
