How to Fix Humming Doorbell Chime After Installing SkyBell HD Edition Wi-Fi Doorbell Camera
A couple of days ago, technicians from Telus installed my new SmartHome security system. One of the components they installed was the SkyBell HD Edition Wi-Fi Doorbell Camera from Alarm.com. The camera works great but soon after the technicians left, I noticed that my Trine mechanical wired doorbell chime was making an annoying humming / buzzing sound.
Naturally, I googled it and found various solutions. One of the solutions was to add a 10 ohm / 0.5 watt. But at the recommendation of the guy at the electronics store, I tried a 10 ohm / 5 watt resistor instead. The 5 watts is better at dissipating heat and lowers the chances of the resistor overheating and smoking/burning versus the 0.5 wa...

Short tour of the Hava Lava Tube (a.k.a. Ka Eleku Cavern) near Hana in Maui, HI. This is a must-see attraction on the famous "Road to Hana". My family thoroughly enjoyed it and it was educational too!
Waianapanapa State Park and Black Sand Beach in Hana, Maui, HI on the Road to Hana

A short video of the gorgeous black sand beach and a few other features in Waianapanapa State Park in Hana, Maui, HI. This park is near the end of the famous (and treacherous) "Road to Hana", which has extremely narrow roads and numerous one lane bridges. It is a harrowing, white knuckle drive but it's worth it to see this one-of-a-kind park and the black sand beach.

Short video of a Cattle Egret bird eating several small Gecko lizards in a very short time. Where did he put all that food? Shot at the Aston at the Whaler on Kaanapali Beach, in Maui, HI. I felt sorry for the Geckos but the Cattle Egret did put on a fascinating show!

Happy Hour at Leilani's on the Beach in Kaanapali, Maui, HI. Just a few minutes of eating slider burgers and drinking a mai tai and a lime margarita. Shot with my iPhone 5 and rendered down to 720p. The food and drinks were good. The location was fantastic!
Maui Sunset

Time lapse video of a Maui sunset. Shot from the Aston at the Whaler on Kaanapali Beach, Maui, HI. Shot with my iPhone using the GorillacamPro app and the iStabilizer tripod. It was a bit cloudy that evening so the sunset is not that good. Oh well, it was my last day there so I didn't have the option to wait for a better sunset.

Time lapse video of me grilling some chicken at the Aston at the Whaler on Kaanapali Beach in Maui, HI. Created on my iPhone with the GorillacamPro app and the iStabilizer tripod. It's a silly video and I was just fooling around with the app and the tripod. It's my first try with that stuff.
Sundance Guest Ranch 5:30 PM Jingle

This is the 5:30 PM Jingle at The Sundance Guest Ranch in Ashcroft, BC. During this nightly ritual, the one hundred or so horses go out to the pasture to eat. It's quite a spectacle as the horses parade past the guests at the ranch.
Before messing with the electricity, I would recommend checking the settings of the doorbell first. Mine was fixed by changing the indoor chime type settings from Digital to Mechanical. Before changing the setting, I checked the transformer output and it was 21 volts, and the chime terminals I'm getting around 1.5 volts leak. After changing the settings, I get the same reading so I think the small leak of electricity on the chime is normal.
5 watt it stopped buzzing or ringing. I should have gone with a 1 watt.
Do you have to turn off the power from the electric panel before you install the doorbell chime?
Can’t remember but probably yes
Great advise
I have a Eufy video doorbell and the same buzzing/humming issue, I was going to try a smaller .5 watt resistor but after reading comments about them burning up I bought a 5 watt 10 ohm like you did. It'll arrive tomorrow, hopefully it works! I'll update this comment later with the results. Does it matter which way the resistor is attached to the bell?
Transformer usually is next to power panel and is a lot easier and cheaper to replace than do this.
I got rid of my humming noise after replacing the transformer.
Count how many times you said UM. THIS video takes almost 12 minutes to give 3 minute Message...
@Jerry Ball. You don't have to leave insults when someone is trying to help you. You didn't have to listn to the entire video if you didn't want to. You chose to listen.
I have owned my Skybell HD for almost 4yrs and did not have that issues...but I also installed a Skybell HD for my sister and her chime started to make the humming noise and after awhile it damage her Skybell..so I had to replace her Skybell and her doorbell chime which fixed the issue...we did not need a resister...
Dude in the future please speed up you dialog!😎
JOHN Q LUNCHBUCKET I’m sorry. I have a disability.
I think I seen that the sky bell recommended a 10ohm 10W resistor
cool
Wow awesome dog! Ya I was the Cider video guy of course. Anyway I gave your channel a sub. RUclips is a long and taxing life, and help is always useful!
It's funny watching this and realising there are so many new horses since I worked there! You're right about the big palomino (Think he's called Thor), he's gorgeous! So awesome to see a jingle again, brings back many memories!
