BLINK LITE FULL
The Blink Outdoor’s Full HD camera provides a clear picture that’s sharp enough to identify the faces of any intruders. This lets the back easily pop off, revealing the battery compartment and QR code, the latter of which is needed to link your camera to the app (more on that in a bit). In real use this won’t be a problem, but having thrown it in our rucksack during our travels, it didn’t take much for some (cosmetic) scratches to appear.įlip the camera round, and you’ll find a large screw that can be loosened with an included tool. One thing we should point out is the fact that due to its plastic body, it can get scratched and scuffed relatively easily.
The mount itself is also stiff enough to ensure the camera will remain pointing where you aimed it.
BLINK LITE INSTALL
It feels sturdy and robust in the hands despite its plastic build, and the included mount is easy to install even for nervous DIYers, though we opted to simply stand it up on a bookshelf. A security camera is the last thing you want to draw attention to, and its rounded square white look is pleasantly minimal. The Blink Indoor is about as basic as things can get, but that’s no bad thing. You can also buy individual cameras that don’t include the module if you simply want to expand your existing setup in future. While the Blink Outdoor comes with a free 30-day cloud storage plan trial, after which it’ll cost $3 / £2.50 per month.ĭepending on your needs, you can buy Blink Indoor packs that have up to four cameras, and these all include a Sync Module 2 as well. If you’re happy with cloud storage then that’s an option too, though it won't be free. If you do want to grab a dedicated one though, you can easily grab a 256GB USB flash drive for around $25 / £25. At the time of writing, It’s not currently available in Australia.īecause the Blink Sync Module 2 is included in the price there’s nothing extra you really need to buy - chances are you’ve got a spare USB flash drive lying around which you can use for local storage if you don’t fancy relying on the cloud. You can also purchase it from the likes of Best Buy, Lowes and Target in the US, or Currys, Very and Argos in the UK.
The Blink Indoor camera can be snapped up for $79.99 / £79.99, and is available directly from Amazon in both the US and UK.
