Looks like the decision comes down to 720p or 1080 resolution. That
is the big difference in the pricing.
It appears I can rig up some external power to all models.
Any opinions on resolutions?

Just read up on it a bit. Interesting.
So the ring camera sucks on doorbell power but not enough to trigger
the original doorbell.
So it is 100% backwards compatible with your existing AC powered
doorbell.
Then when you push the button on the camera it simply shorts out the
original doorbell circuit as the original doorbell push button would do.
They recommend a 25 ohm 50 watt resistor to be placed in series with
the camera if the actual doorbell chime is not in the circuit.
Now, I wonder how low you can go with volts and VA on a powering
transformer. Go low enough and the resistor will not be needed.

They do but just be aware if you hook up a doorbell transformer
directly to the doorbell if anybody pushes the button it will fry you
need a load in between the doorbell is just a momentary switch that is
able to parasitically draw power to maintain the doorbells battery

Oh, don’t have a doorbell ( I have a magneto telephone you crank
to ring other mag phones in the house). I presumed they sent you
an alert on your cell phone when someone pushed the button.

Keep in mind that the ring doorbell is wired in series with a an
analog doorbell and charges the battery with a parasitic drain.
Don't wire it in parallel with a power source or you will be sad
when someone tries to 'ring' the Bell
