[Greenbuilding] Doorbell options

[David Wentling]

Working with client to reduce electrical loads before they consider installing a PV system.

We have done many things, including lighting reduction, smart outlets, Energy Star appliances, change from desktop to laptop computers (including sleep mode settings), occupant sensors on certain lights, and removal of clock radios that were never listen to.

Now they are looking at transformers and doorbells. We have had limited success with wireless units. Interference or corrosion issues have been some problems.


Is there anyone on the list, that had good stories with alternatives?

Any experience with rechargeable batteries? I have been following the thread on recharging alkaline batteries with interest.
