I want to install a wireless chime in parallel with existing wired doorbell. I picked up a wireless battery-operated kit in Woodies for €12. The installed Friedland wired bell system measures just under 10V ac although documentation led me to expect 8V ac. The wireless bell push is operated by 12V battery.

instead of a relay, you could use the 10v ac as the input supply and have 12v dc as the output. would that work, instead of using a relay? http://www.ebay.com/itm/AC-DC-Converter-6-12V-to-12V-Full-bridge-Rectifier-Filter-Power-Supply-Module-TW-/141841108773
