This 8-Piece Ring Alarm Kit Is Now Over $100
If you’re looking for a home security system for a small space and don’t mind going the used route, this certified refurbished eight-piece ring alarm kit is a good option at $110.99 – 48% off the regular $214.99 USA. .
Designed for one- or two-bedroom homes or apartments, this kit includes a base station, range extender, motion detector, four contact sensors and a keypad—everything you need to get started. Setting up the system is easy: just download the Ring app, connect the base station, place the sensors where you need them, and activate them. The system offers three security modes: Home mode keeps outdoor sensors active while ignoring indoor ones, Away mode turns on all sensors, and Disarm mode disables everything. As a reminder, according to this PCMag review , when the system is in disarm mode, it doesn’t send you notifications—a potential drawback if you rely on alerts.
Speaking of alerts, if you can handle alerts yourself, you can skip the $20 monthly fee and opt for DIY monitoring. But if you don’t prefer to play security guard, the Ring Home Premium plan offers 24/7 professional monitoring with automatic dispatch of emergency services. This subscription also unlocks integration with Amazon Echo, Alexa, and other Ring devices, making your system more versatile. However, if you’re big on compatibility with third-party devices—say, Apple HomeKit or Google Assistant—you’ll find this package lacking. For that, Abode Iota is a good alternative, although at $299.99 (up from $329.99) it’s a larger investment.
