Common Ring Battery Problems (Doorbells & Cameras)

Battery Draining Too Fast

This can affect both Ring doorbells and security cameras.

Common causes include:

  • High motion detection frequency

  • Large or poorly defined motion zones

  • Cold weather conditions

  • Weak Wi-Fi signal causing repeated reconnections

What helps:

  • Reduce motion sensitivity

  • Adjust motion zones

  • Improve Wi-Fi coverage

  • Keep a spare battery charged


Ring Battery Not Charging

If your Ring camera or doorbell battery won’t charge:

Possible reasons:

  • Faulty USB cable or charger

  • Dirty charging contacts

  • Battery nearing the end of its lifespan

Fixes:

  • Try a different charging cable and power adaptor

  • Clean contacts with a dry cloth

  • Replace the battery if it no longer holds a charge


Ring Camera or Doorbell Keeps Going Offline

Low battery levels are one of the most common reasons Ring devices go offline.

Recommended action:

  • Recharge or replace the battery immediately

  • Ensure firmware updates once power is restored


How Long Does the Ring Battery Last?

Battery life depends on usage and environment:

  • Light activity areas: up to 6 months

  • High-traffic areas: 1–2 months

  • Cold weather: reduced performance expected

Outdoor security cameras typically drain faster than doorbells due to wider motion coverage.

💡 Tip: Many users keep two batteries to ensure continuous monitoring.


How to Replace or Install the Battery

  1. Remove the security screw (if applicable)

  2. Slide off the device faceplate

  3. Press the quick-release tab

  4. Remove the battery

  5. Insert a fully charged battery until it clicks

  6. Reattach the faceplate and security screw

The process takes less than one minute for most Ring devices.


When Should You Replace or Buy a Spare Battery?

Consider a replacement or spare if:

  • Your battery drains much faster than before

  • Charging takes longer or doesn’t reach 100%

  • Your device frequently goes offline

  • You want uninterrupted camera or doorbell coverage

  • You live in a cold or high-motion area

A spare battery ensures no gaps in security coverage.
