The Blink cams are my go to camera for monitoring my mothers home, my home, and my RV. The absolute best part about these cameras, in my opionion, is that the base does not require you to connect it directly to your home router. This gives you the ability to place the base station where ever you get the best signal. I have been known to even set one up temporarily inside my car to monitor overnight (when I lived in LA due to break ins) It works great for that as well as long as your wifi signal is good or you have it connected to a hotspot. The second great thing is that it uses batteries and absolutely sips energy. The battery life is expected to be two years and while im waaaay too hands on to come close to that, I get a solid year and change. Pretty good still. The image is good enough to pull details like plate numbers, shirt graphics, or other identifying marks. The cameras also support two-way audio and that comes in pretty handy too. Finally, you dont need a subscription to use these but it does enhance the feature set and offers cloud storage of your files if you want redundancy since the base has an SD card slot to save your files locally. You really can not go wrong with these little guys.

Great camera! I’ve been using the Blink Outdoor 4 for a few weeks now, and overall, I’m really pleased with how easy and reliable it’s been. Right out of the box, setup was a breeze—the Sync Module Core got things up and running quickly, and pairing it with the app was smooth. The 1080p video quality is solid during the day, and surprisingly clear at night, which gives me peace of mind when I’m checking in on the house after dark. I love how compact and low-profile the camera is—it blends in without looking bulky or drawing attention. The motion detection is responsive but not overly sensitive, so I’m not bombarded with alerts every time a squirrel passes by. The real cherry on top is the two-year battery life, which means one less thing to constantly worry about. For a simple, no-nonsense outdoor security option that still packs useful features, this camera is a win in my book. It’s just nice knowing it’s there, quietly doing its job. Overall, a great camera at the right price point. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

Been using Blink for a bit now ever since Google upped their monthly fees for their service. I found that the Blink service has been really solid and haven't had any issues with them to date. I've had a couple sticky cams from other manufacturers and they've worked ok; some not so much. Firstly, I liked the size of this camera. It's about hockey puck sized so it's not large at all. Also helps in that it's not too conspicuous when mounted either. I mounted mine indoors so it's not really an issue for me. The included mounting bracket is pretty simple/straight forward so no issues with installation. Camera quality is pretty good. You can change video quality in the app to your liking. One thing I did do was hardwire the camera to a USB-C cable/plug. I'm sure the batteries would hold up for a bit but I really feel more comfortable knowing the camera's on and not having to worry if the camera dies when it's most inconvenient. The included sync module helps out a bit if you plan on adding more cameras or other Blink items.

This newer version of the Blink outdoor camera is the 4th "generation" of their very simple outdoor security cameras. It continues the basics of the previous versions in that it takes two AA lithium batteries and has a fixed-focus lens. It continues the good design of the rear cover, as the first versions were not good. This Outdoor 4 includes a simple tool to turn the big screw holding the rear cover in place. The cover has a seal of sorta around the edge so it (hopefully) remains water-tight. There is a small rubber type cover plug for the USB cable if you were to use it to connect a solar charger or an add-on battery pack. The plug does *not* have a retaining tab attaching it to the Blink so it might be easy to lose. Included is the latest version of the sync module to connect your camera(s) to the web, plus an AC adapter and USB cable to power the module with. It should be noted that the charger and cable are NOT for connecting to the camera! Also included is a very basic and rather cheezy mount for the camera. Still the same snap-on design to hold the camera to the mount. Still needs work. You can shop around for non-OEM mounts more suitable for the outdoors. The adding of the camera (or first time setup of a system) gives a free 30-day trial to the cloud hosting and special AI features like identifying what is the object triggering the motion alert. After the trial it will revert to the regular features the other Blinks have on my plan.

Crisp, clear video and images/teo-way communication and personalized sones with up to two year battery life. These work as advertized and ive never regretted the purchase. Blink has kept my home and family safe!
