Wireless video doorbell query

Paul1802

Hi. 

Would any of you good people happen to know of any battery operated video doorbell that would have a deterrent siren built-in (either directly or via an app). 
It's a rented house so has to be strictly no drilling. I've scoured the internet and only come up with one possibility (Arlo) but it's unclear as to whether the backplate is adhesive as I require or needs to be drilled in which case it's no good. 

Many thanks in advance

No experience with the tech I'm afraid but maybe something about the rental property aspect. Has your LL explicitly refused permission for you to drill a few holes? I'm sure if you ask, explaining it's to install a security product to protect your home (and their property) they should be fairly on board with it? You'll obviously need to plug any holes leftover when you remove the doorbell and move out at the end of your tenancy.

They all have a battery powered version, Most you will need to buy from them directly, rather than through Amazon.

As for the adhesive tape - it will only last a few months and you'll need to keep swapping out the tape. Best thing is to get some glue to stick it on, but can be messy depending on where you're sticking it.

Thank you. I'll look those up. Haven't come across this brand. How do you find them?

Thanks for the reply. 
My main question is around the siren. That's quite important to me and seems very hard to find on a battery operated system for some reason.

i bought them from their store on ebay and they give you 3 years guarantee when you do the adhesive strip is very strong and one of mine is in all weathers and doesn't move att all.the siren i havent tried but it warns you about worrying your neighbors so must be loud.cost for the pair was  £88.00 delivereed

I have a TP-Link one from Argos, it has an anti theft siren option and also comes with a double sided adhesive pad to mount it (which I have used). Another reason I bought this one is that it uses a hub which houses a memory card that stores the footage that the camera captures so no subscription is required.

None at all no. It's a rented property and it looks like they've changed the front door recently so it basically has nothing on it. I think I know why you're asking though, an original doorbell would have been handy for a wired system that could have just been removed on moving and the old one put back up.
