Just FYI...

several threads on these... if you have a grandfathered plan, you can add these cameras. If not grandfathered, storage for XT2 is via subscription - the later versions can save via to Module 2 and forgo subscription for storage.

For what its worth, I got the 2 for $20 deal last week for the indoor cams, selected "used acceptable" and got four cameras still sealed in the box in perfect condition

Someone posted this on an earlier thread regarding the xt2 and subscription. So basically any xt, xt2 and 1st gen indoor will have free cloud storage. It doesn't matter when the account is created.

This user recently created a new account and received free cloud storage.

Good deal! I bought 3 XT2 with module. It works great with cloud storage after I installed them. Since then, I added two more Blink minis. However, it added me to a Plus plan (free trial for 30 days). I got a couple of questions.

1) If I remove the minis from the system, will I get back my free cloud storage?
2) Plan B in case I don't get back my free cloud storage. I'm thinking to purchase another set of XT2 with module. Remove the existing XT2 from the existing system, and add them to the newly setup system so that I'll have free cloud storage. Then Let the minis continue to run on the existing system with local storage, or for on demand use only. Is it going to work?
You don't lose the free cloud storage for the XT2 cameras. The trial plan is for your Minis only. When it ends, your Minis will have limited functionality unless you either subscribe or use local USB storage with a Sync Module 2. Your XT2 cameras always have 7200s free cloud storage regardless.

That is a Sync Module 1. The 2 has white sides. As I suggested in a previous post, I believe the Woot listing is in error to suggest the version 2 sync module is included. I've ordered 3 sets and they all came with version 1. If you are just using XT2 cameras, it doesn't really matter because they do not support local USB storage at all (even with the version 2 module).
Thanks a bunch!

Quote from Samwise Gamgee :
I'm from Wyze world:
- I don't buy their subscription--and don't plan to, for any ip cameras
- recordings save to a local usb disc on the camera

I'm noob to Blink:
- can I have a similar setup with Blink?
- I don't want to buy a subscription? and save recordings locally?

I may have found the answers to my own questions, I think::
https://support.blinkforhome.com/...ge-options

What if I don't want to subscribe to the subscription plan or use Local Storage?
Without a subscription plan or free trial, your Blink system can only send motion alerts that connect you to that camera's Live View in the Blink App.Accounts that were created before April 15, 2020, can use their existing cloud storage as normal with newer cameras, but some features are only available with a subscription (or free trial subscription).

How does Local Storage work?
You can purchase a new system that includes the Blink Sync Module 2 and insert a USB flash drive (sold separately) to allow a once-daily backup of clips in cloud storage. Clip backups do not appear in the Blink app. You must eject the USB drive from the Sync Module 2 and view the clips on your computer.

Those 2 things pretty much kill this deal for me.
That last part is out of date. Since an update a while back, clips on local storage are accessible right from the app. But note that the XT2 cameras so not support local storage at all. They are strictly cloud storage and come with 7200 seconds free for life. Blink Minis and other models do support local USB storage with a Sync Module 2 (this deal comes with a 1 though despite the listing).

I know it's cheap and all but just know that Blink is a discontinued product.
Blink is not discontinued and just released a new video doorbell. These particular XT2 model cameras are discontinued (no longer sold "new," although in my experience based on multiple orders the ones from this deal appear new). They are still supported and come with the free 7200 seconds cloud storage for life.

That makes sense! Thank you so much for your clarification!!!

Someone earlier in this thread mentioned that the Blink app allows you to record the liveview feed when you have it opened. If that's true, that's a way to use local storage and not have to rely on the 7200s cloud storage. Dedicate an older tablet with a good amount sdcard and have it record your livestreams. My order won't arrive until this Saturday…not sure why it's taking this long since I ordered when this deal was first posted and I live not even 10 mins away from an Amazon distribution center. Anyway, I have a couple of Android TV boxes with Play Store and a spare monitor that I might turn into a camera system. Hopefully it will work as I had envisioned.

Live view save clip to the cloud, there is no option to save it somewhere else

I ordered just the add on cameras, so I already had the sync module at home.

In description, it says Sync Module (gen 2). Can someone please confirm that you received gen 2 sync module and use it for local storage.
Doesnt matter if you get sync module 2 if you receive XTC cameras like these that only do cloud storage.
