Update 12/19 @ 1:30pm: The Ring Video Doorbell 2 is now $109.95 shipped at Rakuten via Altatac.
Altatac via Rakuten is offering the Ring Video Doorbell 2 for $118.50 shipped. That’s more than $80 off retail, a $10 savings compared to Amazon’s current sale price, and with $29.50 in Rakuten points, it’s easily among the best value offers we’ve tracked. If you’re unfamiliar, Rakuten points are like cash on its site. Once earned, you can redeem them on future purchases with no minimum requirements. They tend to last for 180 days before expiring. Having owned two of these doorbells for years now, I am a fan. They’ve been reliable and make it easy for me to keep an eye on deliveries whenever the need or desire arises. Since this specific model is battery-powered, it can be mounted anywhere. Rated 4.1/5 stars.
Prevent inevitable downtime when using today’s savings to pick up an extra battery pack for $29. I have a backup on-hand for this very reason and I’m happy to report that I’ve always been able to swap out a dying battery with a charged one whenever a low-power alert rolls in.
