Thank you for this information and all the comments. Alot of my questions were answered.
Nicely done man. Hope you continue growing on RUclips. Very detailed, made me laugh at times, and great personality. All the best man! Thank you!
I record with the blink outdoor camera 4's w/o a subscription. You use the same blink app , add up to 256GB storage on the sync module and flip the app from cloud to local. The only downside is that the video clips that are recorded don't have a snapshot view attached like the cloud storage does. Just a play button for each clip. So you have to go through each to find what your looking for. Clips are still time stamped and dated but no snapshots. I'm sure some one has or is working on a backdoor for that.
How long does it take to pull up a live view? I'm on the cloud plan and it takes a while for it to sync and start playing, which I hate. Don't have a USB storage hooked up, but I'm thinking that would speed things up. Does it for you?
Great video brother. Thank you, and be well.
No plan - will record to a memory stick
great video
Thank you for the video. I'm a senior and new to this technology. My understanding is, if I have a subscription I do not need a sync module and USB, is this correct? If yes and I decide on the module/USB, do I still view things via the blink app or do I need to remove the USB and insert it into my computer for viewing? I have a troublesome Karen nearby who likes to mess with my car. In order to give her a legal "healing" I need some proof, must I have a subscription in order to record or will I be able to get it off the USB? Thanks so much. I sure appreciate your time. 🙂
What are the best cameras but reasonable
I have four Blink battery cameras given to me as a gift. Would I spend my money on them - no way! I have other security cameras which record 24/7 onto a SD card, will tilt up/down, right/left, and provide notification, and cost around $35 each. They required electrical power but my home has plenty of electrical power. 😂
Do you mind sharing what cameras you have that you mentioned?? I'm a first time homebuyer exploring my options
very informative video. We are now considering blink hehehhe
I guess all camera has their "moments" ours were fine then after 2yrs just suddenly won't record or keep loading bahahaha
Thanks for watch Ana!
do I need a subscription to schedule?
I've set up my Blink cameras (outdoor 4 and mini 2) with an Echo show 8. I've noticed that it takes a while for it to start a live feed when I issue a command to Echo show, and there's a 4 second lag in the footage, between what is happening live and what the feed shows. Do you think adding a USB on the sync module will make it faster?
I'm confused. I have 3 cameras. Just put them up. It notifies me of motion and when I go into the app I view the clip and then delete them right away. To continue this, do I need a subscription?
You may still be in the trial period. I wouldn't purchase the subscription until it was necessary.
Mine worked for at least 4 years now thy stopped, Spectrum router stopped working they had to give me a new one this stopped the Blinks because of gh's was not right. blink support helped but now still not recording. Never had this issue before also not on any plan.
You must have a different Blink than I. Mine records without a subscription through the sync module and a USB thumb drive. I also have a live view, but it won't record the live view.
Older Blink models like the XT, XT2, and some older Minis will record to the cloud without a subscription. Yes you are correct. It's does appear that live recording for all models may need a sub plan. Which model do you have?
@@TeachMe101I have the Blink Outdoor with the Sync Module 2. No it does not record to the cloud without a subscription, but it does record to USB on the Sync Module without the subscription.
@garyh7949 do you have the blink 4?
I have the outdoor blink camera's for 3 years so far,(I have mine hard wired ,batteries did not last long at all) it was pretty good till latest update .
Now when i review "Clips Folder" there are notfications that don't go away ,even after I viewed all "Clips" . I called customer Service they suggested to Uninstall then Re install . Well that just erased All Clips. and now its doing it again ,mystery clips that won't clear folder ?
Try this...
Go to clips folder
1 - Press the "edit" button.
2 - Press "select all" button.
3 - Then press "marked viewed" or "delete".
4 - Then scroll up your clips until you see the next "notification DOT".
5 - Repeat steps 1-5 until all the hidden clips have been either viewed or deleted.
* Note you may have to restart the app a few times to see the notification count go down.
After you finish, make sure to refresh your screen.
How did you hardwire? mine are burning through batteries too
Interesting that my batteries last well over a year to 16 months.
Very informative video. I appreciate it
Well its a very bad camera system i bought it and also bought the sync module 2 and im still not allowed to record, 💩 im sending it back
Hi there, I hope you can help me, I have a blink system and it was working pretty good but all of the sudden my system detects movement but doesn’t record, I have the memory stick on it
i just had the same issue.... call blink customer support and ask them to update firmware on the hub. it was literally that easy.
Blink is ok, but dont depend on it to save your life, you will die before you see who is at your front door......latency is so bad, it takes about 4-5 min latency........its good for bird watch....can use on your computer, just your phone....really
Is there any way that we can put justice on a subscription plan? Make it at least a little possible for the non politician or billionaire?
Blink is crap...
