USB Programmable Doorbell

View Comments June 23, 2007 | Everton

Here’s a cool gadget if you want to impress your mates. ThinkGeek have a USB Programmable Doorbell for sale at $100, which allows you to upload a 30 second WAV or MP3 soundclip using a USB cable.

Much nicer than the standard chirps or chimes you get with standard doorbells, and as the video below shows the USB Doorbell could have an interesting effect on visitors.

What soundclip would you upload?

  • Cute this ... I want one with a motion sensor that would play a track to the person getting ready to ring my chime ... "You'd be well-advised to have a good reason for ringing my bell"

    I recently bought a cute remote doorbell .. for about $94 less than this one costs ... it has a wireless button for the door ... the gate to my front year in my case, and a "chime box" also battery powered that you can place anywhere in the house. It has 32 pre-programmed ring tones and another model the store carries has 64. No USB or Internet capability, though, but for $6 USD, I'm happy.
  • I think I'd use One Vision from Queen or Manhattan from Eric Johnson.
  • First, I'd have to be the kind of person that likes it when someone rings the bell. :) I would just as soon disable ours and let people use the knocker. When our bell goes off, so does the dog and that is annoying ;)
