Amazon and Ring Smart Home Devices Are as Low as $12 at Woot on July 4th

Want your home to be more secure? Looking for convenience in your everyday life? Amazon has a smart device that can help you do just that, but without breaking the bank. Right now, you can get your hands on Amazon’s smart devices for less. Now through October 2, Woot has a selection of new and refurbished Amazon smart devices and Ring security equipment on sale, with prices starting at just $12.
Woot typically has a limited supply available, so we’d recommend getting your order in sooner rather than later if you don’t want to miss out on these savings. This sale ends on July 15 at 12 am CT.

The Ring Video Doorbell Wired is a top pick at just $20 in this sale. It’s one of our favorite cheap video doorbells, offering all the basics like a 1080p HD camera, live streaming, night vision, two-way talk and motion alerts. Or, if you want the convenient installation of a wireless model, you can upgrade to the Ring Video Doorbell 2 (currently sold out)which is equipped with a removable and rechargeable battery pack, for $40.

On the smart home side of things, you can buy an Amazon Smart Plug from just $12 refurbished (currently sold out) Usually $25, this Alexa-enabled plug adds voice control to any outlet at a great price, whether you want to turn a lamp on and off remotely when away from home or bring a nonsmart device into your smart home setup.

Those are just a few examples from the sale, but it’s well worth taking a look at the entire selection with many other Ring alarm and video doorbell products in the mix, plus Amazon’s own smart thermostat. Of course, the privacy concerns around Ring should be noted for anyone considering what cameras to put around their home. You can enable end-to-end encryption on Ring’s products, which can help alleviate those concerns for privacy-minded folks, but it’s not the default setting and breaks certain features.
