A:AnswerThe Blink Floodlight installs the same way you would install a standard flood light. If you already have a flood light then you can replace your existing flood light with this light. If you are not comfortable with working with 120VAC then it would be best to hire an electrician (someone) to help. Keep in mind that the Blink will need to see WiFi. The Wifi registration is through a phone app and uses a QR code on the camera to facilitate with the registration process.
A:AnswerClick on the settings icon at the bottom right of the camera’s thumbnail at you should have buttons for turning the lights on or off. From there, if you go into the camera settings under the lighting button you also have a “dusk to dawn” setting
A:AnswerThe "Local Storage" option for any/all of the Blink devices requires the Sync module, which has the USB port to plug the storage into. The module supports up to 10 devices.
A:AnswerThe earlier answer is wrong. The instructions explicitly state that the camera can be mounted on the wall or overhead. When mounting overhead, the directional arrow on the back of the mounting plate should be pointed toward the wall. You need about 1" clearance around a standard round mounting box to mount the camera.
A:AnswerFor the record, YES they (all blink cams, etc) can be link to multiple phones, devices, etc. "Simultaneous" is the trick phrase here though. Only one device at a time can view then entire system at a time. Example, I was trying to arm our system when leaving garage on motorcycle, but couldn't access it, got error, I noticed LED on camera was on, so I asked wife to stop viewing me long enough to arm, or to arm it after I left, LED went off (she heard me and complied lol) so I was then able to access and arm. Long story short, if someone is accessing, any cam, nobody else can do anything with the system until that person is done. But it is very rare this happens.
A:AnswerHello Ravi,
No, you cannot replace the individual LED bulbs on your Blink Floodlight camera because they are integrated. If the floodlights stop working, the entire unit should be replaced. If your device is still under warranty please reach out to Blink for support. I hope this information helps. Have a great day!
A:AnswerHi Rogyarbr63, thank you for your question. The Weather Resistant Power Adapter is not designed to power the Floodlight. It is compatible with Blink Mini 2 and Blink Outdoor 4 cameras. I hope this helps, have a great day!
A:AnswerHello,
There are a couple of different ways that you may be able to remedy this without having to take the cameras down. First of all, you should look for a QR Code inside the box the cameras came with. This will allow you to scan the QR Code with your phone or tablet which will automatically populate the SN in to the app. If you don't have the box, using the Alexa App you can search for devices through the app, as long as the cameras are powered on, the devices serial numbers will populate as the device names once they are found on your wifi. Lastly, this may be dependent on the store where you purchased them the Serial Numbers may be listed on your purchase receipt. If you don't have the receipt still, you will be able to access your receipt using the Best Buy App, or stopping in to your local store. Customer Service will be able to pull the receipt as long as you used a Best Buy Reward Zone phone number.
I hope these options help!
A:AnswerHello Cliff, yes the switch would need to be always on for the camera to work. The Blink Wired Floodlight requires constant power.
Have a great day!
A:AnswerHello Wifi,
All Blink camera's run on Wifi. With the Blink subscription, you would be able to view your camera and have access to the cameras functionality over a cellular signal, but the camera does need a stable wifi connection to work.
I hope this helps!
