Wireless Doorbell With Multiple Receivers?

Can anyone recommend a wireless doorbell that would work with multiple base
receivers, at distances (through walls) of at least 400 feet? This is for
a commercial installation and it needs to sound chimes in a lab area in back
as well as in the front office area.

Honeywell RCWL330A1000/N P4-Premium Portable Wireless Door Chime looks good
but nothing there says it supports multiple receivers.

If I were to guess, it shouldn't make any difference how many receivers there are however I can only suggest that you contact the manufacturer to find out if receivers can be purchased by them selves and at the same time ask them about multiple receivers. Also be aware that any wireless estimate on distance is line of sight and does not consider walls, metal object and the like, which can reduce the transmit distance considerably.

As Jim says it shouldn't make any difference how many receivers there are.
Take a single push button and "learn" it in turn to each of your receivers.
When you have completed the learning process pushing the button should sound
all the receivers.

Hi,

Instead of relying on wireless to get thru walls and all kinds of obstacles
that may be in a commercial building and getting spotty coverage, you could
consider using chimes that use the existing electrical wiring, such as the
old X10 used to do; you would need to stay with the same 'leg' of the
electrical system though, or you could rig your doorbell switch to relay to
a second transmitter on the second 'leg' of the electrical system.

Also, since you may have an extensive phone system in the building, look for
a lonely, never used, and forgotten pair of wire in that Telco system just
waiting for the day to feel useful. You only need one pair to send a signal.
Additionally, if you know how, you can send 2 signals in one wire for
different reasons using different frequencies. But that's the advanced
class.

And then, how about the ceiling above you. You might be pleasantly surprised
to find wiring available.
Just a thought.

Good luck with that, even if you do find an American company the product is likely still built in China

All you can do is try to check it out when your are buying something. I try to do it as much as is possible. It's just a small effort on my part that makes me feel better. I think that I am part of a waning generation of people who are patriotic. This present generation has not experienced any conflict that would stir them to be patriotic, or to have any interest in the history that has occured, that allows them to be indifferent to the uniqueness of this American experiment. Every one loves to be free but you can't forget what it cost and to value it. Is that the definition of patriotism?

Perhaps when they begin to suffer the consequences of their indifference, some form of patriotism will arise. The freedom to be indifferent is great until you don't have that freedom anymore. The big question is ---- will it be to late?

I always think of this when I see what's happening today

"First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."

Keep the faith, Brother..
(lock the doors, load the guns) "lock & load"
Today's youth are a mixed lot,
some share the patriotic spirit, others are lost unto themselves..

As the older generation, we can only blame our self for not teaching the
"lost" youth the value of past experiences..

Many of us were to busy reaching for the "Brass Ring", to worry about
the children, letting others teach them the value of experience.

We now see, those that taught them, were "lost" themselves.

There's a song about the father who didn't have time for the kids,
and the kid who realized when he got older that he was just like dad.

The times they are a changing...
But as "ole coots" our time is nearly over,
the young ones will have to sort the story out for them self ...

Which has been the case for all time ...

Yeah, your right.
I'M sure that someone will interpret the drawings on the cave walls some day and they will say the same thing.
"Ever since we started domesticating all these animals, these damn kids will just never know the importance of taking down a mammoth."
