Q: Can you mount on the same mount as the 1st generation.

A: Hello, Suflae! The Blink Video Doorbell 2nd generation would not mount onto a 1st generation mount. However, the Blink Video Doorbell 2nd generation comes with a unique mount (along with mounting accessories such as screws) you would be able to install instead. Thanks for the question, have a great day!

Q: The title on the listing says REQUIRED SYNC MODULE......a module was not necessarily previously required and could act as standalone; does this new model not have the ability to act without a module?

A: Hi Oscar, With the newer Blink Video Doorbell (with “Required Sync Module”), it cannot operate fully standalone — it does need a Sync Module to connect and record to your Blink system. Older Blink doorbells could work without one, but this updated version requires the module for proper setup and cloud clips. Hope this helps!

Q: Is the small part for Wi-Fi included or I have to buy it? Also is this a part important or I just can use my Wi-Fi home?

A: Hello Monica and thank you for your question! The Blink Video Doorbell requires a stable Wi-Fi connection to work, you can use your home Wi-Fi for this connection. In addition to Wi-Fi the Blink Video Doorbell also requires a Sync Module. Unfortunately, this model does not include a Sync Module. This can be purchased separately or bundled with the Doorbell. Hope this helps! Have a great day!

Q: Can best buy install the doorbell

A: Hi! Yes, Best Buy offers professional installation for video doorbells, including brands like Blink, through their Geek Squad smart home services. This allows you to schedule setup when purchasing the device or separately. You'll just need to provide the Blink doorbell and have a working Wi-Fi network, and the technician will help with mounting, app setup, and configuration, including connecting to voice assistants if you have them. I hope this answers your question!

Q: How do i hard wire the blink camera

A: Hello Paul, To hardwire a Blink Doorbell, first shut off power at the breaker, then remove the old doorbell, connect the Blink's Y-clips (or wires directly to terminals) to your existing low-voltage wires (16-24V AC), mount the new backplate, and restore power; the app guides you to confirm compatibility and set up your chime type (mechanical/digital) while the doorbell still needs its internal batteries for operation. I hope this information helps. Have a great day!

Q: Can you talk to someone

A: Hello and thank you for your question! Yes, the Blink Video Doorbell allows for two way audio with the individual at the front door. Hope this helps! Have a great day!

Q: Where is the bell that rings

A: Hi MP, the Blink Video Doorbell doesn’t have a built-in indoor chime. It will ring through your home’s existing doorbell chime if wired, or an Alexa device if used wirelessly. Hope this helps!

Q: Can you use an sd card for local storage with the new blink video doorbell? -MH

A: Hi there! You can use local storage by plugging a USB drive into a Sync Module 2 or a micro SD card into a Sync Module XR, however this model doesn't come with either. This particular listing is for adding a doorbell to an existing Blink system that already features a Sync Module. If you'd like the Blink Video Doorbell you see here, I'd suggest picking up a separate Sync Module 2 to use the USB storage. If you run into any issues setting things up, you can always reach out via the app for some help. Personally I had to eject the USB drive in the app and re-insert it once or twice before things started working properly. I hope that helps, have a great rest of your day!
