With Father’s Day fast approaching it is time to start thinking about a great gift for the Dads in our lives. Security, peace of mind and cool technology are important to Dads. Well, at least to me and I’m a Dad so I figure I’m not the only one who values those things. Normally these qualities can’t be found in a single Father’s Day gift, but with the Ring™ Video Doorbell you can give that Dad in your life all those things in one great package. Security because with Ring™ you can see and speak with who is outside your home from anywhere in the world. Peace of mind because you can be Always Home™. Cool Technology because, come on, how awesome is it to be able to answer your doorbell from anywhere in the world via video and then be able to interact with the person who is at your door. That is pretty incredible.

I received a set of Ring™ products for free as part of a campaign that I am doing that includes a Twitter Party on June 7 at 1pm EST. My opinions of the products are 100% my own.

With the Ring™ Video Doorbell Dads can set up a powerful security system around our home in minutes. This is great for the DIY Dad who is handy with tools or the DIY Challenged Dad who doesn’t know which end of the screwdriver to hold. Ring™ Video Doorbell installs in minutes and you can be up and running very quickly. This is great for Dads, like me, who only have a little bit of time every day to get things done. Security and peace of mind in minutes, I’ll take it.

Here are some interesting points about the Ring™ Video Doorbell which is a dual-powered, Wi-Fi- enabled, HD video doorbell.

• Ring™ Video Doorbell can either be powered by its 5,200mAh internal rechargeable battery or through existing doorbell wiring. So, Dads do not need to be expert electricians to install Ring™.
• You can be #AlwaysHome with Ring™ because Ring™ streams live audio and video of a home’s front doorstep directly to a smartphone or tablet. You can even sync an unlimited number of smartphones and tablets so you do not have to designate only one device to work with Ring™.
• The app enables Dads (and anyone else in the home) to see and speak with visitors from anywhere in the world via the free iOS, Android or Windows 10 desktop app.
• Ring™ likes to play nice with others. Visit Ring.com/plus to view a complete list of smart objects compatible with Ring™, including the Kevo smart lock.
• You can even access your ADT alarm system via the Ring™ app.
• Ring™ sees so much. With Built-in motion sensors and a 720p HD wide-angle lens, Ring™ captures every activity detected by the motion sensors. The HD Wide-angle lens can cover a 180-degree field of view and up to 30 feet in range.

There are many more features and benefits to having a Ring™ Video Doorbell. Personally, I work the weekend nights and being able to check in on what is going on at home is important to me. Our neighborhood is also one where it is both good and bad. We are close enough to the more seedy side of town and also on a very nice street. I think about things like packages being stolen right off the porch or having people on the property who are not supposed to be there. We also have some pretty awful neighbors and I would have liked to been able to prove that the broke our fence to come around to get a basketball. I would have been able to have seen that had we had the Ring™ Video Doorbell or the Stick Up Cam at that time.

Safety and security is important to Ring™, too. The company’s mission is to reduce crime in communities and empower consumers by creating a “ring” of security around homes and neighborhoods. The Ring™ Video Doorbell and Stick Up cam also have night vision because Infrared LEDs capture motion and activity. Did you know that it is common for burglars to knock or ring the doorbell to make sure nobody’s home before breaking in? I didn’t know that, but with Ring’s security products, homeowners can give potential intruders the impression you’re home, even when you’re not. No one security device can prevent every break-in but with Ring™ Video Doorbell and the Stick Up Cam’s built-in motion sensors they detect movement as someone approaches the door, triggering instant mobile alerts and initiating HD video recording. These recordings can be shared with law enforcement officials to help identify the intruders. Ring™ Video Doorbell footage has helped police identify and arrest burglars across the country, including in California, Georgia, Missouri, North Carolina, Texas, Utah and Washington.

Because of this blog I receive a lot of packages. Way more than anyone around me. I know my FedEx and UPS and USPS folks pretty well. Luckily for me they are really good. At least the regular drivers are. One time, one of my Loot Crates was shoved in a bush nowhere near my front door. I have no idea how that happened but that would have been nice to have seen who did that using the Ring™ Video Doorbell and the Stick Up Cam.

So, with Ring™ Video Doorbell you can give Dad the security, peace of mind and cool technology that he has been searching for no matter where he is in the world. Oh, Ring™ is stylish, too. It comes in multiple finishes to match your home’s look.
