ADC-VDB770 Battery Swelling / Replacement

I recent had issues with my ADC-VDB770 not sitting flush with the mount and turning off, and it looks like the battery has expanded causing it to no longer sit properly. I initially looked on the forum, and see that some other uses had this issue a few years ago, and a support staff mentioned battery replacement kits being offered in the future. It also looks like the VDB770 is no longer shipping with batteries due to over-heating issues from what I am seeing online.

As my doorbell camera has been working perfectly otherwise and I have a wired chime; is this something I can simply remove (or if needed - replace) the battery to keep my doorbell functional? I’d hate to throw the whole thing away (And buy a new one) because of a component issue.

Thanks in advance!

There is a replacement battery pack available now for the ADC VDB770. You are correct, they do not ship with batteries now.

Look for the ADC-VDBA-770BAT. We do not carry this battery at this time, but it looks like they are available from a variety of vendors.
