doorbell tranny

[Johno]

hello all i am new on here, today i went to install an extra chime on an existing doorbell in a b&b, with the new chime connected the 2 chimes wasnt working properly, so assuming it must be the transformer wasnt up to it, i rang 2 suppliers to see if there was a higher rated tranny and both told me no, but surely it is common to have 2 chimes on 1 tranny, so how is it done (without costing a packet)

So ..... have you got the ding or the dong?

Sorry Johno, couldn't resist that

What tranny were you after, did you test the voltage at the new point at which the chime was to be installed.

cheers lads, have sorted it now, byron make one thats up to it, but i can't believe it's not more common to have 2 chimes on 1 button, anyway you learn something everyday.
