“I already have a blink camera mounted at the front of my house. I would like to add the outdoor 4 to reside inside a birdhouse in my backyard. Can I just buy the outdoor 4 without the sync module and connect it to my existing one?”

Yes, each sync module supports up to ten cameras. Sometimes the complete system is on sale cheaper than the add-on camera. If so, just add the new camera to your current sync module instead of the new one.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi Cathy! Yes, you can add the Blink Outdoor 4 camera to your existing sync module without purchasing a new one, as long as your current system uses a compatible sync module. The Blink Outdoor 4 is compatible with the Blink Sync Module 2, Blink Sync Module 3 (Sync Module XR), and the newer Blink Sync Module Core, which can each connect up to 10 cameras including various Blink models like Indoor, XT, XT2, and Mini cameras. However, it's important to note that the Blink Outdoor 4 is not compatible with the original Sync Module 1, so if you have that older version, you would need to upgrade to a Sync Module 2 or newer to use the Outdoor 4. At Best Buy, you can purchase the Blink Outdoor 4 camera separately as an add-on camera without a sync module, or you can buy it bundled with sync modules if you're setting up a new system. Since you already have a Blink camera mounted at the front of your house, as long as it's using a Sync Module 2 or newer, you can simply purchase the standalone Outdoor 4 camera and add it to your existing system through the Blink app, which will allow you to place it in your backyard birdhouse and manage both cameras from the same app. Hope this helps and have a great day!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes you can do this; one Sync Module is able to support up to ten devices simultaneously. If you were to ever get to an eleventh camera and so forth at the location, then you would simply need to add a second Sync Module for devices 11-20 and so forth.
