preface

With the popularization of smart home devices, more and more manufacturers are marching into smart home devices. At present, smart sockets, smart cameras, and smart routes are coming into our lives, and they are slowly beginning to spread throughout our lives. With them, our quality of life is also slowly improving, making life not only convenient and convenient. The entrance of a smart home is just like a home door. If you want to open the door without thinking of the doorbell, you can start with it. As the most common home doorbell, it is also becoming more intelligent. When you press this intelligent doorbell, the sound is no longer boring. Today, let's introduce this music doorbell - small K intelligent music doorbell.

Unpacking and appearance

The packaging box is of ordinary design, without hard paper. On the front of the box is the design drawing of small K doorbell and the English word "Smart Bell". It can be seen that small K intends to make this doorbell more intelligent and intelligent, which can reflect the humanization of this music doorbell.

However, the interior design of the packing box is very ingenious. All the accessories are combined by a sponge pad, which not only makes use of the space, but also ingeniously protects the product from damage during transportation. Although it is very light, the manufacturer is considerate.

The internal accessories of the packing box are complete, such as doorbell host, wireless transmitter, door sticker, etc. In particular, we can see from the accessories that the manufacturer is very attentive and the service is very attentive.

The two main equipment of the doorbell are so mini. The white appearance makes people feel clean and tidy. The plastic material is smooth. Even if the dust falls, a gentle blow can restore the white.

Doorbell host

It feels very small and mini when held in the hand. The two devices are the size of a palm when added together. The two devices are very light because most of the interior is "empty".

There is a logo of "konke" on the front of the doorbell host. There is a WiFi sign above the logo and an indicator light sign below the logo. So it is known that the doorbell can be connected to the Internet+++. The doorbell connected through the Internet becomes fun and interesting. Of course, how to play it? Please continue to look down.

The host has only two keys as follows:

There are two buttons on the right side of the doorbell, the music switch button and the volume adjustment button. The official website shows that the maximum volume can be adjusted to 85dB, which is much louder than the traditional music doorbell.

For this smart music doorbell, the author is very curious about its interior, so first take a look at the host.

Seen from the circuit board, the welding circuit is not very complicated or dense.

Seeing this, you can find that the internal connection line is very simple. A few electrode capacitors, a speaker, and a WiFi module form this simple and practical small K doorbell.

Doorbell transmitter

The wireless doorbell transmitter is a device installed at the door of the house. When a visitor presses it, the doorbell host will ring, telling the host that there are guests in the house. Its appearance is very small, not as big as the doorbell host. Install it on the door, and when a visitor presses it, the doorbell will ring.

Some people will ask what to do when the WiFi network at home is disconnected or there is no network. Xiaok also solves this problem perfectly. It can also send signals to the doorbell host through a certain effective distance, and can also be used as an ordinary doorbell.

Also disassemble the wireless transmitter as follows:

Through disassembly, we can see the internal conditions, and there are very few components. The circuit board can see a copper coil, which is the most important device in signal transmission. We install the small battery (12V/23A).

What needs to be mentioned here is that the transmitter rear cover needs to be pried open with the attached screwdriver. The author thinks that this is a disadvantage. Since the screwdriver is included, why not screw on the back cover in the nude color? Moreover, the author does not recommend installing the door with stickers, which is neither secure nor reliable. It is recommended to use the attached screws on the wall for hole drilling and installation. It is recommended that the official optimize the installation and design structure of the doorbell transmitter.

After installation, everything is ready. Put the attached stickers and stickers on the wireless transmitter, or use the attached wall accessories to install them outside the door. Let's try how fun this doorbell is.

APP experience

Go to the official website or scan the QR code on the instruction manual to download the APP. This APP integrates the smart home devices of the guest controller. Interested friends can check the official website. Only the intelligent doorbell is available here.

After the download is completed, click the doorbell button icon to add a doorbell device. First, connect the doorbell to the Internet and configure it through the mobile phone APP. Before configuration, the device needs to be reset. The author has tried to configure it successfully several times.

Then configure the wireless button, which is the doorbell switch transmitter. Click APP, and then press the doorbell transmitter to pair successfully. Generally speaking, this doorbell pairing is very simple. The whole pairing process does not exceed 10 seconds.

In addition to the common function of the doorbell, this device also supports the alarm clock mode, which wakes you up through the loudspeakers of the doorbell host. However, what I want to complain about here is that the background color of APP switch buttons is very similar, and I hope it would be better to change it to gray. Usually, button switches are mostly identified by color rather than switch position.

Of course, this small K doorbell not only comes with a variety of songs and prompt tones, but you can also customize the doorbell playing sound. Simple recording sound as prompt sound. Make the doorbell more interesting, but still hope to be able to add music files, not just through recording.

The sound can be adjusted through APP or turned off. Of course, it is also desirable to add the indicator status switch.

However, at present, the firmware version of this small K doorbell is still in 1.0, and I believe there will be no small improvement in the future. Of course, other uses of APP are useless to you. Like some APP, there is only this separate doorbell function. If you want to play more interesting smart home devices, you can go to the official website of customer control.

Practical operation experience

Let's have a practical experience. Install the doorbell in the bedroom or living room.

Press the door outside, and you can hear the sound clearly inside the door. The sound is very loud and clear.

Press the doorbell transmitter and the blue light will flash.

summary

The playability and practicability of this doorbell is much higher than that of the traditional doorbell. It is really a good smart home device in terms of installation safety and operation portability. Of course, it is a pity that the installation position of the host of this doorbell is affected by the socket. But the small and delicate appearance of the doorbell transmitter is really attractive when installed on the door.

However, the wireless transmitter of the doorbell is equipped with a battery, which is not necessarily available in ordinary supermarkets and grocery stores. Therefore, I hope the transmitter can be charged with lithium batteries. In addition, the doorbell host needs to be plugged into the socket, so you can also consider adding a rechargeable lithium battery. Of course, it is recommended to screw on the back cover with screws. At the same time, you want to increase the installation convenience, and increase the battery capacity of the doorbell transmitter so that it can be used for a long time; In addition, the APP needs to be improved. After all, besides the alarm clock, other playable places can be added, such as schedule reminder voice memo (PS: the alarm clock function is too simple).

Finally, the current price of this small K doorbell is 79RMB, which is not very expensive compared with the traditional doorbell. From the perspective of installation convenience, simplicity and practicality, and as an intelligent device, this price is not expensive, and it is worth starting!
