Asked 4 years ago by Bayhawk.
This question was asked about the related product: Blink - 5 Outdoor (3rd Gen) Wireless 1080p Security System with up to two-year battery life - Black

At night, they provide visibility up to 20ft away depending on exact conditions. The range of the motion sensor is up to 15-20ft depending on exact conditions.

QuestionCan i install the cameras in Nigeria, Africa and monitor it here in USA
Asked 4 years ago by Emeka.
This question was asked about the related product: Blink - 5 Outdoor (3rd Gen) Wireless 1080p Security System with up to two-year battery life - Black
- Answer The Blink system would theoretically work In Africa assuming you got the correct power adapter, however we do not currently offer a local server to support the system. This means that you could suffer from poor performance, lag time issues, and quickly draining battery life as a result. This would void the warranty as well. You are able to adjust your camera settings, view video clips, receive notifications, and access live view through the App on your compatible mobile device from anywhere as long as you have a WIFI or cellular connection. This is important to note for your cellular data plan, watching a five second motion clip without WIFI connection will use about 750KB of your data plan.

QuestionDoes blink cameras support motion detection alerts through windows?
Asked 5 years ago by Chiri.
- Answer The Blink Indoor and Blink Outdoor cameras can not reliably detect motion on the other side of glass. Some users have placed cameras facing out a window or through a glass door to use the Live View option. A Blink Indoor and Blink Outdoor camera looking through glass will react to the near side of a pane of glass, so it will not be activated by motion beyond that to create clips when in the Armed state.

Asked 3 years ago by MickeyD.
This question was asked about the related product: Blink - Outdoor (3rd Gen) Wireless 1080p Security Camera with up to two-year battery life - Black
- Answer Blink cameras can't operate offline and require a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi Internet connection. One important reason is because cameras use Wi-Fi to send images and notifications. Blink systems minimally require a high speed connection of at least 2 Mbps upload speed.
