To anyone wondering I've had my blink mini outside on my shed through storms and winters and it has gotten wet and it works just fine. It's been about 2 years outside in the elements and only just now starting to have a little bit of problems but considering I just screwed it to the outside temperature that it did pretty well I'm sure if you got a little rain deflector for the top It would be fine

Would you suggest the wireless or wired blink indoor camera? Is there much difference between the 2. I’m planning on using it to my garden but from inside the window
@fishbeeamazon
@fishbeeamazon 5 місяців тому
the outdoor 4 is a tad better quality (day and night) because its newer but not sure if it would be that much better through a window since i haven't tried it that way. I'm actually trying several 2k indoor cameras for windows trying to figure out which one is best and i like the pan and tilt ones better so far.

Hi, can you turn it on and off from your mobile phone? And will it keep the saved data (name, wifi etc) after an outage? I'm thinking to use it in a no handle place and would be difficult to set everything again. The idea is to use it only a couple of times per month to check if a water pump is ok, not need it running 24/7.

The base doesn't have a magnet in it - its metal that will stick to a magnet. All features require a subscription or hub. Can't view live or recorded video in Alexa app without a subscription. 1080p is ok, you might even say its pretty good up close but beyond 10 feet quality drops quick. 2-way audio is very poor, not suitable for communication, even with a pet. Android app has known bugs. Night vision is easily blinded just by reaching over and flipping a light switch on as you enter the room and the night vision doesn't turn off to the sudden change in lighting. No TV app. No Windows PC app. I haven't recorded anything yet, hub or subscription, so I have yet to know what issues await with that functionality. That being said, the subscription fee is not excessive and if you are ok with these aspects of the device then the Blink minis may live up to your expectations. Still, you may want to consider these Blink devices to be curiosity-cams, not security-cams.
