Blink Outdoor 3rd Gen + Floodlight — wireless, 2-year battery life, HD floodlight mount and smart security camera, 700 lumens, motion detection, set up in minutes – 1 camera kit (Black)

Bought this on prime day for decent price …camera, lights and module for $79 with batteries included. The floodlight works great and puts out enough light for a dark walk on the side of my house. Easy install. I can use the floodlight independently when needed or it’s triggered automatically with the camera. In daylight, the camera simply works like all the others. The light triggers on with the camera at night and has a setting to have it trigger on in daylight too (although i don’t see the purpose). Works well with alexa. You can preset the light in the app to automatically shut down after so many minutes. We will see what the battery life of the lights are in time but i expect it will be pretty good given it uses two led lights.

We are having some trouble with “critters” living under our porch. This product has a wonderful light and sends me clips of the raccoon, skunk and opossum as we try strategies to make life at our house unpleasant for them. It is too early to tell, but i think some may move away just because they don’t like the bright light in their eyes. The video clips are excellent quality. Great product!

Just installed today and i had to make a review. The flood light and camera were super easy to set up, install and link to my phone. Everything you need is in the box. I bought 2 additional cameras and all 3 cameras and flood light synced up immediately. Great video quality, and you can adjust the motion detectors to pick up certain movements by adjusting a grid. Great quality build for being so cheap.

I simply attached the blink camera to the unit, and it was up and running in minutes. The app detected that the unit has lights, and added features for them to the camera.

Thumbs up to blink for adding the requisite batteries already in the unit.

Love this product, i have the blink outdoor cameras and one indoor camera as well. Just remember to remove the plastic from the batteries in the back so you can use the floodlights.

Great outdoor camera. Good amount of area covered and nice and bright, easy install, easy set up with the blink app, quality camera for viewing, overall great quality from blink as usual

So, originally i was gonna shell out some money to go with a ring system. I needed four cameras with floodlights, and a doorbell camera. Right before hitting submit, my husband’s coworker friend told us to wait and look up the blink system. I am very glad he stopped us. For one thing, this was at least $400+ dollars cheaper than ring’s bundle. I wasn’t going to be able to grab a doorbell cam from ring until later because adding one on was more than the budget i had. With blink’s pricetag, i could get the doorbell camera and still be saving $400+.

For another, i wasn’t sure how bright ring’s lights would be. The coworker said they weren’t very bright, bright enough for the camera to have somewhat of a night vision, but not enough to do what i wanted, which was shine a light on the area the camera is pointed at. Blink’s lights are very obvious on the camera, and they’re very bright without being ridiculously so. It helps me out a ton at night in my back yard to see my porch, my steps, and any toys my son decided to leave as traps in my path. Don’t know why he does this seeing as how i use a cane and a wheelchair sometimes. Maybe he’s trying to give me one of those obstacle course challenges! They are also very responsive.

The whole thing was so easy to set up and i love how they included multiple ways to attach the cameras to your home. I needed to use the siding clips for most of my house, but i did have to buy a hammer drill, masonry bits, and brick screws to mount one of the cameras to the front of my house that is all bricks. The app is really easy to use and allowed me to easily put my doorbell camera and my front camera on the same sync module, and then turn on only the doorbell camera as the front one still needed to be mounted. It also allowed me to block out the street in front of my house as my neighbors driving to their houses would set off the motion detection. Not a lot as i live on a short cul-de-sac, but still enough to be annoying. That was very easy to do with their zone option.

The camera quality is so good too. Much better than ring’s in my opinion. Especially at night. I looked at a video of a friend’s night time ring camera that detected motion and you could barely make out the form of a bunny hopping past. My camera picks up those bunnies and squirrels at night clear as day. It’s really cool to be able to see the animals move around at night and they don’t set off the camera unless they’re on or immediately around my back deck.

All in all, i’d definitely recommend this camera system brand. You won’t be disappointed!

Very easy to set up and it came with 1 free month of blink. After using the service for 1 month free i purchased the yearly subscription. The batteries are supposed to last 2 years, we’ll see.

For the price point it is not bad. Features like wireless, no drill mounting, and long battery life are great.

We installed this in minutes and were using it right away. We like it so much that we’ve bought a few additional blink devices.

The camera works great, and does just what i needed it to do. The only problem i’m having is after i upgraded my iphone 13 pro to the new ios 16.0 it no longer does landscape when you view the videos. I don’t know how to correct this.

Works well! I’m waiting to purchase another, if i don’t purchase the doorbell!

The device is really high quality device and it works properly. What i liked a lot about this device is you can have a flash drive to save your videos and you do not necessarily have to purchase a plan from the manufacturer or a cloud space for your records and captures. However, i had to return it because the range of detection was not big enough for me. I purchased the device for my drive way and i noticed if someone comes to end of my driveway toward center of it, the device will not detect it as a motion and as result, it won’t be captured. The motion actually had to be so close to my garage door and the device to be detected and captured. And there was no setting for that and that’s why i am giving it a 4 star and returning it.

I dislike the fact that i couldn’t use the product because the batteries didn’t work, would come on and go out.

Doenst allow for scheduling on and off. I’d like it to only come on between certain hours and the app doesnt allow that.

The outdoor camera flood was very easy to install. Works great, but think motion detection could be vastly improved. This product cannot compare in motion detection to a cheap one purchased at any hardware store. The light could be a little brighter.

This is a great little spotlight motion detector camera combo, the floodlight works great i had to turn the sensitivity down because it kept picking up all the little bugs flying around at night the lights are bright and the camera works great

We didn’t have a light for the back of our house so i got this to replace the camera i had on the back there and i love it! It also comes with a siding mount so i didn’t have to drill any holes in my house! I can’t give it 5 stars though because i can’t get it to detect me leaving in the morning but i’m still adjusting the setting to try to get it to work.

The range isn’t that great, have to be close before lights come on.

I got this on amazon for $89.99 and i noticed the next day the price jumped to $140, yikes!!! I’ll keep it as i have it installed now, but the fatal flaw for me is that you cannot connect external power such as a solar panel that i have on my other outdoor cams. I doubt the batteries will last two years because it’s a driveway flood, and that would stink if your batteries died when you were away so it couldn’t record.

Btw, pay little attention to the one star ratings on here. They’re mostly idiots that couldn’t figure out you need to remove the cap on the back of the flood light, remove the plastic tab over the d batteries for it to connect to the camera and sync mod. As soon as you do that, everything works as it should.

Update: i could not get the flood lights to turn on upon the camera detecting motion, and the tiny “instruction” pamphlet is pretty much useless. I figured out that if you go under the floodlights settings, you have to turn on daylight sensitivity, then slide it left to 1 for the lights to turn on at night upon detecting motion.
