Q: How long is the power cord that is included with this camera?
A: The Mini 2 Camera comes with a 6' power cable.
A: I have several of these cameras looking through a window. Some work better than others. Daytime works good. Night is a problem because the little light comes on when activated and reflects in the glass.
Q: Can the base be removed? I'm looking for a camera for a very small space.
A: Hello Jane, thanks for reaching out! Yes, you can remove the base (or mount) from the Blink Mini 2 camera, and it's designed to be a snug fit, so you might need to pull with a bit of force. I hope this answers your question and I hope you have a wonderful day!
A: Hello James and thank you for your question! Unfortunately, Blink does not recommend using the device to detect or record motion through glass or screens. The Blink camera may not work properly and hinder its performance. Hope this helps! Have a great day!
Q: Can we use this as desktop or webcam for mac or windows machine?
A: Yes you can
A: Hello. Thank you for your question. The Blink Mini 2 uses a standard 5V micro-USB power connection and comes with a power adapter. It is not battery-powered and requires constant power through the included USB cable and power adapter. While it's designed for use in most countries, you should verify the power adapter's input voltage specifications for your specific region, though typically these USB-powered devices can handle 100-240V input. I hope that helps and have a great day!

Blink mini 2 cameras
I absolutely love the blank mini 2 cameras. I even purchased the outdoor adapter and these are amazing little cameras with great features, great quality picture, and very easily installable. I will be purchasing more as well as the outdoor camera which is wireless. I also like that it is attached to my Amazon account.
