Welcome to the Bitiwend wireless doorbell review!
As part of our wireless doorbell reviews, we decided to look at the Bitiwend wireless doorbell to see what this minimalistic wireless doorbell has to offer.
The Bitiwend wireless doorbell is available with:
- 1 receiver, 1 push button or
- 2 receivers, 1 push button or
- 3 receivers, 2 push buttons
It is great to have this much choice, especially if you are looking for an expandable wireless doorbell with more than one receiver. This choice needs to be made at the point of purchase.
Bitiwend Wireless Doorbell – Details
What You Get In The Kit
- 2 x Push Buttons
- 3 x Receivers
- Screws & Anchors
- Double-sided Adhesive Tape
- 1 x User Manual
- 12V23A Alkaline Battery
- 1 x Screwdriver
Distance
The advertised distance for the Bitiwend wireless doorbell is 1000 feet (300m), which means you are likely to get around 50% when installing it in your home.
You have to remember that there are many obstacles between your wireless doorbell push button and receiver. Walls, doors, other electrical items, and floors will weaken the wireless signal as it passes through them on the way to the receiver.
That being said, 1000 feet in the open air will give you more than enough distance capabilities for a regular size home.
Melodies
Ringtones
There are 52 different ringtones to choose from!
The tones range from the classic ‘ding dong’ to more melodic options. Follow these simple instructions to pair the device and select your favorite tune:
Of the 52 chimes, you are only likely to like a small amount! If you are like me, you will go through the entire list before settling on the classic ‘ding dong.’ Having said that, it is nice to have such a wide variety of chimes to choose from.
Volume
The volume range is 25dB-110dB which is more than enough volume for a regular size home! You can set the volume using 1 of 4 volume levels.
If you are deaf or hard of hearing, then the Bitiwend wireless doorbell, along with the LED flash when the button is pressed, needs to be considered.
There are louder wireless doorbell options (some hitting 125dB!). 110 dB is simply loud enough!
Weather Proof
There are two things you need to consider when thinking about a weatherproof wireless doorbell.
Waterproof Rating
In terms of being waterproof, the Bitiwend wireless doorbell is rated IP55, which is one of the best options and ensures that the push button is not damaged when exposed to the rain. You can find more details about the IP rating on our waterproof wireless doorbell post.
Working Temperature Range
The working temperature range for the Bitiwend wireless doorbell is -22°F to 158°F (-30°C – 70°C).
It really is a complete weatherproof wireless doorbell! Cold, or hot, Sun, or Rain, the Bitwend wireless doorbell has you covered!
Installation
Wireless doorbell installation is straightforward, and you can expect the same with the Bitiwend doorbell.
Pairing the doorbell receiver with the push button is extremely easy. Follow the same instructions as you would when choosing a new ringtone:
How To Pair The Bitiwend Wireless Doorbell
- Please plug one receiver into a regular socket, and pick the sound you want on this receiver.
- Press and hold the volume button on the receiver for about 5 seconds, and the receiver will blink with a “ding” sound, then immediately push a transmitter to pair with the receiver.
- Finally, you will hear the music you set.
- It is the same operation method to pair other transmitters with receivers.
Installing the Push Button
The wireless doorbell kit comes with screws and adhesive strips to secure the push button to your front door.
In terms of how you install it onto your door, it is completely up to you. There are drawbacks to using either the adhesive or the screws.
Adhesive
Using the adhesive strips allows you to secure the Bitiwend doorbell push button without causing damage to the frame of your door. If you are not happy with having screw holes in your door frame, we suggest using adhesive strips.
The only drawback is the strength of the bond. If your front door is exposed to the elements (if you do not have a porch), then the rainwater may weaken the bond over time.
Screws
You may choose to screw the Bitiwend doorbell push button onto your door, which is the decision we always go for. You will always need a doorbell, so although they are screw holes in the door, you will always use them to host the push button.
In fact, we use the screws to secure the push button, but we also use the adhesive to add some extra protection. Over time, the push button could cause a little damage to the doorframe, so the adhesive offers protection.
Warranty
The Bitiwend wireless doorbell has a 12-month warranty and a worry-free 30 days money-back guarantee!
In terms of confidence, it really shows that the manufacturer has it in abundance if they are willing to offer both options.
Conclusion
After reviewing the Bitiwend wireless doorbell, we had no hesitation in adding it to our list of the greatest wireless doorbells for your home, office, or apartment.
It is a fantastic option if you are looking for a:
- Weatherproof wireless doorbell
- Cold weather wireless doorbell
- Waterproof wireless doorbell
- The doorbell of the deaf or hard of hearing
The minimalistic design, multiple chime choice, and loud volume mean it scored very highly on this review.

Not only that, but you also have a great wireless doorbell for many situations, including (but not limited to) a waterproof, weatherproof, loud option that also need to be considered if you are deaf or hard of hearing.
Hi,
Live the door bell. But it would be nice if you could change the music / chimes on a app.
I’ve just bought the 3 receiver version – but realise that I could do with a forth receiver. Is it possible to buy just a receiver. If not, and I buy a second set of bell push and receiver, will I be able to link in the new receiver to the original set?
Hi
Thanks for getting in touch! Hopefully, I am not too late, but yes, these pushbuttons can work with up to 50 receivers.
You can buy a Bitiwend receiver + push button but not a receiver on its own.
I hope that helps!
