I need a wi-fi triggered bell or alarm

I have an existing motion detection system outdoors on my property.
It sends radio signals to receivers when motion is detected.
The receivers are plugged into wall receptacles and make a dinging sound when motion is triggered.
The receivers also have an option to turn on an internal AC receptacle so you can turn on lamps.
The receivers will ding 3 times over about a 10 second time span then shut off.

I got rid of the AC lamp on feature and used the internal relay to just connect two contacts.
I modified the relays to trigger a esp32 device in Home Assistant.
Pin D13 in the ESP32 is grounded when motion is sensed.
The esp32 sends a wi-fi signal to Home Assistant.

I set up two automation’s for the esp32 in Home Assistant for occupied and unoccupied.
Currently I just have Home Assistant turning on and off a Kasa smart plug for my testing.
All of that works great.

But what I want is a device that works with home assistant that can chime, ding or make an alarm sound of some type.
I have 3 buildings where I want to hear a sound when there is motion outside.
Deliveries, animals on the property, etc

I have searched for a device that can do that but have not had any luck yet
I don’t want a ring doorbell or a doorbell camera type thing.
I just want a dinger/chime device that home assistant can trigger.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can make this work?
Thanks

I use my Sonos speakers to play door bell chimes. Other smart speakers may work also.

Thanks, but I have 3 buildings and I don’t want speakers.
And the price for those ares way beyond what I want

You could plug a 120v alarm into a WiFi smart plug

Solenoid, bike ring bell, ESP and a relay.

Anything that makes a noise when powered and a controllable outlet.

Any media device that can play a sound type of file.

Wow, that alarm bell would get my attention for sure. :sweat_smile:

ESP and a relay and a noise maker was in my thoughts.
But was hoping not to have to make more devices.
I was hoping there was something out there that was ready to go.
I’ll think about that some more.

I gave up on a alarm sound when motion is triggered outside the home and shop
I got some Kasa smart bulbs model KL110P4
I have the motion sensor receiver trigger a ESP32
The ESP32 is set up in Home Assistant with an automation
The automation triggers a Blink Lights Blueprint that is set to blink the bulb 5 times at 1000 ms intervals

This actually better than a sound alarm because I may have very noisy machines running and may not hear the alarm sound.
A visual indicator works better for me in the house also when music or TV is on.
Won’t work well in either location if I can’t see the lamp, but it should be ok.

I got the Blink blueprint on Github. Here’s the link for that blueprint
