Can I install Doorbell without indoor chime?
I am using Google Nest Doorbell (1st gen). It also requires a wiring with the indoor chime.
Unfortunately my house doesn't have the wired doorbell. But I am able to use Nest Doorbell with a AC-DC adapter.
Nest has an option to disable indoor chime so that the doorbell doesn't have to close the circuit (cutting the power) and to ring the indoor chime.
I am not sure if I can also use Kasa Doorbell with the same way.
Thanks

I think I can install it. My adapter output is 18V.

KD110 doesn't have a battery, so in general, it needs to wire to the existing doorbell to get power. Theoretically, if the input power of the device can be met, it can be installed and used in an environment without a doorbell system.
