We’ve seen plenty of Arlo equipment over the last couple of years. Their most recent additions, the Arlo Pro 3 floodlight camera and Arlo Pro 3 camera are impressive kits. The previously announced Arlo video doorbell has finally joined those devices on Australian shores.

The specs of the video doorbell hit all of the marks you’d expect in the current market. HD video stream, 180-degree field of vision vertical and horizontal which allows you to zoom and the ability to pre-record messages for visitors. The unit is of course weatherproof which makes sense since it’s going to be outdoors all the time.

Where the Arlo video doorbell differs from other models you’ll find is the fact it will plug into an existing hardwired doorbell feed. The requirements are a wired doorbell and chime with a voltage between 16V AC and 24V AC, and a 10VA transformer.

We’re now seeing pre-orders available through JB Hi-Fi and Harvey Norman with stock expected to land in the coming weeks.
