Easy Setup/Integration with Blink/Alexa Ecosystems
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As I was already established in both the Amazon/Echo/Alexa and Blink ecosystems, adding this floodlight and camera system was a breeze. I have the Blink doorbell and four of the minis (indoor plug-in camers), as well as a yearly Blink subscription plan already in place. I have Echo Shows in our house and the Blink and Amazon Alexa apps on my iPhones and iPads. If you are in the same boat, where you're just adding another Blink product, setting up this system will be super easy and fast. Putting together the product itself was also quick and easy--the batteries are included and the directions are short, to the point and not difficult to follow at all; there are also no special tools needed or anything like that. I had no problems with pairing it and adding it to my Blink system via the app; I had it up and running to test it out within minutes. The motion detection is good, which is what I expected because I've experienced good motion detection in the past with my other Blink products. The floodlights are very bright when activated (either from detecting motion, or you can also manually turn them on yourself via the Blink app), and I like that you can adjust the angles of the lights individually into almost infinite positions, and you can also adjust the camera angles as well. And the resulting videos are very clear and crisp. As per my Blink doorbell which is also run on batteries, there is no continuous/long-term live feed--so when you want to check on anything going on and you turn on the live feed, it will only last about ten seconds before it will prompt you to click on a "Continue?" button, and if you don't click it the live feed will automatically stop about five seconds after that (you just have to keep on hitting that "continue?" prompt over and over if you want to see the live video feed any longer). I've found that only with my wired Blink cameras can I watch a continous live feed for more substantial periods of time (such as when I check on our pets at home during the day when they're alone). There's nothing in the settings to change the battery-operated Blink cameras to continuously show a live feed for longer. All in all, you can't beat the price of Blink products across the board, including this one, for the value they provide. This Floodlight/Camera combo works very well and integrates seamlessly with other Blink security products and Alexa-enabled devices.

Not Worth It
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Junk, it quit working after about 4 weeks and is no longer returnable. Won't stay on-line. Blink customer service is terrible.

Easy set and Install Good Security Add On
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have an apartment building that has a flood light on one end and a video camera on another end. It has blind spots, no motion detection and some glare issues. We got this as an add on the correct these issues. So far it seems to be exactly what we needed. Super easy to set up and install. I was specifically looking for a wireless, battery powered and wi-fi option, so I could avoid a complicated installation. Where I need this, there are no electric outlets, so this is perfect. I am still working on a sweet spot for the motion since this is an apartment parking lot. I am using the blink subscription for now. I was considering going with the USB drive, but the blink subscription for 1 camera at only $3 per month is worth it to have it stored to the cloud. Also reading reviews of the blink subscription, its clearly better value than trying to save money by gong with the USB. The cloud storage makes managing, saving and reviewing the video data so much easier it seems like a no brainer for 1 camera. The other things to mention are brightness of the lights. This is perfect for my needs, but we also have other lights at the opposite end of the area. Im not sure it would work for the whole lot by itself. I am also always skeptical of battery life claims. This says to expect 2 years. I am not holding my breath in that since we are dealing with unpredictable use with the motion detection and these are D cell batteries but we will see. Still rather change batteries periodically for the convenience of this being wireless. I think this is perfect for what we needed. Hopefully it will help with safety and security for our residents.

Posted .Hello Roberti! I'm sorry to hear about the issues you're experiencing with your Blink Outdoor 4 Floodlight camera. I understand how frustrating it is when a security device isn't functioning as expected, especially regarding the known firmware issue affecting the floodlight functionality. While we wait for a firmware update to resolve this issue, there are some steps you can try to potentially improve the performance. First, ensure your Blink app is updated to the latest version. Then, try removing the batteries from both the camera and floodlight module, wait for 30 seconds, and reinsert them. Also, check that the floodlight is properly connected to the camera mount and that all connection points are clean and secure. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and I hope this information is helpful.

Crap
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Battery life is not 2 years. Have had less than a month and batteries dead.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend deceptive advertising
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The floodlights don't work. I have a Blink system and thought floodlights would be great for darker areas. According to Blink, you need pitch black darkness before the floodlights will operate, which is practically impossible.

Posted .Hello GlennG! Thanks for your review of your Blink Floodlight. I am sorry to hear about the issues with the lights not coming on in darker areas. Here are a few things that should help with this issue: 1. Daylight Mode: When enabled, the LEDs will activate when motion is detected during certain daylight hours, when the outside light is limited like at dusk and dawn. The LEDs will not activate when there is an abundance of outdoor light, often during midday hours. 2. Daylight Sensitivity: This setting only appears when "Daylight Mode" is enabled and controls the sensitivity of the lights during daylight hours. Lower setting values only activate the LEDs in darker conditions and higher values will activate the LEDs in brighter conditions. Try these steps to see if it helps. If you need further assistance, please contact Blink customer service at 833-392-5465. Thanks have have a great day!

Posted .Hi NDee,
Thank you for your feedback on the Outdoor 4. I am sorry to hear the light is not working. If your Blink outdoor light isn't working, first check your physical connections and power sources, like removing battery tabs and ensuring the USB cable is secure. Then, restart your Blink devices and Wi-Fi router, and check your Wi-Fi signal strength in the Blink app. If the issue continues, make sure your app and device firmware are up to date, and check the floodlight's motion detection settings. If these steps do not help and you are still experiencing issues, you can reach out to Amazon Customer Support 24/7 at 1-888-280-4331.
