   There seems no science to spam except that inevitably some fool will open it.

   As someone that used to Knock doors, I must say that this and most every electric doorbell is shite. They always break or their batteries die.

   If BB is looking for an interesting bit of gadgetry you should solicit some pictures of door bells from when they were bells in your door. My all time favorites are those that you have to spin the handle.

   I have seen many of those working 100 years after instillation.

   Eye is the chime.

   I don’t hate you.

   The system fails when someone walks off with your doorbell.
