This question was asked about the related product: Blink - 3 Outdoor (3rd Gen) Wireless 1080p Security System with up to two-year battery life - Black
- Answer Though the Blink system can work with a hotspot, we do not recommend this as hotspots are often variable speed connections and are heavily reliant on location and signal strength. Our system requirements list high speed internet only.

Asked 5 years ago by Sherry.
This question was asked about the related product: Blink - 3 Outdoor (3rd Gen) Wireless 1080p Security System with up to two-year battery life - Black
- Answer Should you wish to place the camera anywhere other than a flat surface we do ship each Blink camera with a mount and mounting hardware screws. The use of the included screws would put two holes in the surface of the wall.

QuestionCan I wire a small transformer to this camera so I don't have to use the batteries. I am very good with electronics and could solder it in even if you say it will void warranty, I am ok with that.
Asked 5 years ago by Jimmyj.
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 The USB port on the back of the camera can be used with a Micro USB cable and power adapter (not included with your camera) to power your cameras rather than using batteries (for proper safety only use 5V/1A USB power adapters). The Blink Outdoor cameras feature a rubberized cover over the USB port. Removing this cover makes the camera no longer weatherproof. Furthermore, we cannot warranty devices connected to unreliable, third party power sources, or when weather protection is removed; therefore, it is important to have all devices kept indoors when connected to a power source through the USB port.

QuestionWILL BLINK XT2 FREE CLOUD SERVICES TERMINATE ON DECEMBER 31, 2020 ?
Asked 5 years ago by SIDEBYSIDE.
This question was asked about the related product: Blink - 3 Outdoor (3rd Gen) Wireless 1080p Security System with up to two-year battery life - Black
- Answer All existing customers who have an account created on or before 4/15/2020 will receive free cloud storage on all devices added to their account going forward – this includes Mini, and Blink Indoor and Outdoor. Separately, any XT2 or 1st generation Indoor cameras added to an account created after 4/15/2020 will receive free cloud storage on those devices, but any Mini and the new Blink Indoor and Outdoor cameras added to that same account will require either local storage via the Sync Module 2 or a subscription for cloud storage to save videos.

QuestionWOULD I BE ABLE TO ADD NEW OUTDOOR BLINK CAMERAS TO MY BLINK XT2 SYSTEM ?
Asked 5 years ago by SIDEBYSIDE.
- Answer Yes. Plus, if adding Blink Indoor and Outdoor cameras to an existing Blink system that has been activated on or before 4/15/20, you will be grandfathered into your current free cloud storage model in the Blink app. Systems activated after 4/15/20 will receive motion alerts and be able to enter Live View for free, with the option to access video recordings in the Blink app through a cloud storage subscription. Local Storage options are available with the Sync Module 2 and a removable USB storage drive.

QuestionWill these cameras connect to 5.GHZ Internet?
Asked 3 years ago by Gloryann.
- 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.

QuestionHow do you set up the camera and what's needed to get them going?
Asked 3 years ago by Eddie1312.
This question was asked about the related product: Blink - 3 Outdoor (3rd Gen) Wireless 1080p Security System with up to two-year battery life - Black
- Answer Download the Blink App first. Plug in the indoor module and establish wi-fi connectivity. Remove all camera rear doors to install the included AA batteries (2 per camera). Open the app and select the "+" symbol on the upper right of the app to add a camera ( you will repeat this sequence per camera). The camera will now show up on the app and you can set ot up to record at will. All you need is the indoor modupe, included in the system package, and internet.
