Refurbished by Eufy, the Security Video Doorbell E340 with Chime sits in the brand’s mid range doorbell line-up, competing with battery video doorbells from Ring and Google Nest. Refurbished typically means it has been returned or opened, then fully tested, reset and repackaged, with possible light cosmetic marks compared with brand new, but it should be functionally sound.
Who is the E340 best suited to?
It makes sense if you want a video doorbell that can run on battery power, so you are not tied to existing doorbell wiring. The included chime is useful if you do not want to rely on phone alerts alone, giving you an audible ring inside the house. Eufy’s approach is usually geared towards keeping recordings under your control, which can appeal if you would rather avoid ongoing subscriptions, depending on how you choose to store footage.
- Battery-powered setup, helpful for renters or quick installs
