Just curious… what makes you want this doorbell over other brands (like ring)?
[New Release] Eufy Security 2K UHD Video Doorbell
Or several others that are half the price?
Plus most come with what’s needed to wire up included in the kit.

- I like the small design better because the doorpost is also small;
- no subscription for cloud storage
- overall better price/quality ratio;
- good experience with the Anker brand (powerbank en usb hubs);
- video quality is good enough for me;
- I have no experience with the ring doorbell, but where I live buyers complain a lot about delays. By the time I get to the door the caller is long gone.
I do recognize that there might be some minor imperfections, but nothing that firmware updates can not solve. A slot for larger memory cards would be nice, as well as 5G wifi, but I can live with the present config.

Well, the problem is that the doorpost is so small that only long and slim doorbells will fit. Models like this one or the Skybell Trim Plus which is more expensive. And the house is rented, so I’m not allowed to make any changes to the existing wires.

Have you considered a SPYHOLE camera.
You don’t get notifications, but it sits in place of the door SPYHOLE, and records everything. Some have a screen, so you still get to see a live image of anyone at your door.
Prices are “approx” 50-99 depending on model.
This way it’s just 2 small screw holes in your door, which is so easy to repair (DIY store)… No anchor points needed.

Sorry, I don’t want to be blunt, but I’m not interested in any other camera . All I want is this Eufy 2k video doorbell with EU plugs. Thank you.

Now using code EUFYDB99 through AMAZON, you got $50 off. I just ordered one this morning and it will be delivered in a week without prime. Now my only concern is if it was stolen, can I still have the footage of the theft?

Did you ever get it connected to Blue Iris? I am considering buying it but really want the integration to Blue Iris.
Thanks

No, I haven’t been able to do anything with it. I can’t even get a RTSP stream from it even though it was mentioned that that would be possible. Maybe a future enhancement?

Has anyone been able to verify that RTSP works? This would make me buy one of these right away.

nest hello, but i havent tried eufy doorbell yet
@AnkerOfficial Just got your Eufy Security 2K Video Doorbell, can you share the RTSP url I need to pull the video into my home automation system?
something like rtsp://[cameraip]:554/[video] ?
Thank you!
Last I heard from support, this is something they are still testing internally. They ran into some issues and were attempting to over come them. Please share if you hear anything different, I would really like access to my feed

This is disappointing news, but thank you for your insight, @Kenneth3. @AnkerOfficial is there a beta firmware that supports RTSP we could have access to? I thought this feature was already supported, it’s why I bought it.
+1 for RTSP support

If you have android phone download app “network utilities” then goto netstat by tapping on the top left three horizontal lines. Then tap the play button on the bottom to activate netstat connections. Open your eufy doorbell video app so the netstat captures the ip addresses then go back to the networkuutilities app and look for the eufy app in the list, tap the name to show the details then rtsp those addresses to blue iris or your nas. Good Luck.
I appreciate your reply, but that doesn’t work. The Network Utilities app wouldn’t show me an IP address. Maybe a different Android version? I know what the IP address for the doorbell is on my network, but I can’t get an RTSP stream from it. The doorbell has 2 IP addresses - one local and one somewhere else (in the cloud 
) I’m thinking that the video needs to be processed by a server somewhere before it is available. That’s probably why we have to use the app to get to them. I sure would like to put the doorbell on my system though.
I tried the suggestion from Sk8ergrl14 with no luck, after further research I found Android P restricts apps from monitoring your network activity, (sorta a good thing), but that is likely why you are not seeing any url’s. I tried on an older tablet but I believe that device was too old to work correctly with network utilities.
@Sk8ergrl14 do you have a sample of the url I am curious if it is a local network url or if it is a remote url similar to the rtmp url that comes from the python library.
Really hoping official rtsp support comes out soon.
Sorry that it didn’t work for you guys. I have a non brand video doorbell that uses xbell android app and I managed to get the cloud ip address where my storage is saved but when I try to connect via ftp or rtsp it doesn’t work. I thought that my way would work for you but looks like rtsp has been blocked off until eufy enables it. I’m still waiting for anker to release the bloody wired 2k video doorbell to the UK.
