Door Chime recommendations

Are there any door chimes that connect to the 24v power that most standard door chimes are already connected to? Ideally, I’d like one that allows for custom notifications through smartthings (like announcing when someone is home) that is powered through the 24v wire that my regular chime is currently connected to. Eliminating the need for batteries. (at least at the chimes) I can close the doorbell button contacts so the chime has constant power and use a wireless button.

If you haven’t seen it already, you can check out A simple way to get alerts when your doorbell is rung. It covers quite a few solutions. You may be able to achieve what you want using an MIMOLite and AC/DC converter hooked up to your existing 24V chime. I just stuck a battery powered sensor in my chime to get alerts when the doorbell rings.
