What types of batteries are suitable for the doorbell?

LR6 alkaline AA batteries are recommended. 2. It is recommended to replace 6 new batteries of the same model at a time.

Agara Smart Video Doorbell G4?
The external power supply and the battery can be used at the same time. Under this condition, Agara Smart Video Doorbell G4 will give priority to using an external power supply for power supply, and battery power will only be used when the external power supply is powered off.

Doorbell G4 work normally after being disconnected from the router?
The face recognition has two functions of face capture and face matching, both of which are performed locally on the device. However, to display and mark the face, it needs to connect to the cloud server. When the doorbell is disconnected from the router, it will not affect the face capture and matching, and not affect the local execution of automations related to face recognition. However, the newly captured face image cannot be displayed on the app after the doorbell disconnected from the router.

Why can't my doorbell recognize my face? Which factors affect face
recognition?
1. The face recognition function is turned off by default. You can open the device settings page - More Settings - Detection - Face Recognition, turn the function on and set the relevant parameters. 2. The sensitivity of face recognition is medium by default. If it cannot detect any face even if the function is enabled, please adjust to the high sensitivity. 3. Please check whether the light surrounding the doorbell is good. Face recognition ratio can be lowered under backlight, dim light. In addition, it can be affected by infrared night vision, starting image distortion calibration.
Why cannot anyone or any face be found in the recorded short video?
1. There might be factors in the surroundings of the doorbell causing the false-triggering of PIR (e.g. thermal disturbances due to big gaps of temperature within the detection range, such as hot air blowing continuously). In this case, please lower the sensitivity or temporarily switch to the Power Saving Mode (PIR function will be turned off.). 2. If the loitering detection interval is too long, the person detected may have left out of the monitoring field when the video recording starts. In this case, please shorten the detection interval.
Why is the Agara Smart Video Doorbell G4 battery life so short? How does
the Power Saving Mode prolong the life of the doorbell?
1. The Smart Video Doorbell G4 capacity of a standard single battery out of the doorbell factory is about 2900 mAh. When you replace it with a new battery, please choose the battery with a capacity not less than 2900 mAh. 2. If connected with HomeKit, the doorbell will record video if it is triggered and there’ s motion detected until the motion ends, which may consume more power and shorten the battery life compared to using the doorbell in Agara Home only. 3. If the loitering detection interval is configured too short, the doorbell may be frequently triggered, which may shorten the battery life. 4. Battery life can be shortened by using new and old batteries together, using other non-LR6 batteries or non-1.5V batteries. 5. If the doorbell is far away from the repeater (more than Max. 5 meters), or there is too much wireless interference in the surroundings, the doorbell will need to increase the transmission power for communication, which will result in the higher power consumption and shorten the battery life. 6. In the Power Saving Mode, the PIR detection function is turned off, and the doorbell can only be triggered by pressing the bell, remotely viewing video in the app, etc., which will greatly extend the doorbell life.
