Finally, the big advantage of these Blink cams vs so much of the other competition, is that this set includes a Sync 2 module, that let's you record for FREE. Pretty much every other decent consumer camera requires some type of subscription to record anything. The Sync 2 accepts up to a 256 GB USB memory stick, which can last you for months (and when it's full, you just delete it, reformat it, and plug it back in the Sync 2).
Community Reviews
Blink and Ring refurb deals stand out for low-cost home security gear, especially when adding cameras to an existing setup. The Blink kits include a Sync Module 2, free Energizer lithium batteries, and local recording to a USB drive, which makes subscription-free storage a major draw. Battery life and reliability look strong in long-term use, with reports of years of service and batteries lasting more than two years, even in sub-zero weather. The main drawback is Blink's subscription limits, since alerts, live view, and detection features are much more useful with paid service. A practical pick if local storage and expandable coverage matter most.
Common Questions (5)
Yes, the included Sync Module 2 supports free local recording to a USB drive, and the cameras still provide motion notifications and live view. Without a subscription, though, features like person/vehicle detection, extended live view, live view recording, and some alert filtering are unavailable.
Yes, motion sensitivity and active zones can be adjusted without a subscription, and motion zones can be set so only movement inside the designated area triggers alerts. That helps reduce false triggers from branches or other background movement.
Reported battery life ranges from about 2 years plus, including in sub-zero winter temperatures, to premature failures in some setups. The included Energizer lithium batteries are meant to last a long time, but actual life depends on usage and camera behavior.
Yes, the Sync Module 2 is a meaningful add-on because it enables free local recording and is sold separately for around $50. It also accepts up to a 256GB USB drive for storage.
Yes, one practical use case is buying the Blink cameras instead of just Ring batteries when you need power for Ring gear. The sale price plus coupon can make the camera bundle cheaper than a battery-only purchase.

Needed batteries for my Ring Cameras....and it was cheaper to buy Like New Stick Up Cameras instead of just the batteries.

Ignoring the privacy concerns Ring cameras have, blink ones were low quality and unless you bought their job, there was no way to save video from them easily. And pretty worthless if you don't have a subscription. (Also the worst in viewing current feed, it would ask after 10 seconds to continue even on the plug in models.
They are useless

For references I bought the two 6-pack Blink + Sync Module sets from Home Depot 2 months back from an SD thread, as well as the doorbell from Amazon during that same time period. I also have 3-yr old Reolink cameras. Hands down, I would choose the Reolink cameras. I've had four battery failures for the Blink cameras in the span of 2 months with limited use. So much for "up to 2 years battery life" promised....

I second this. Setting aside the subscription that will improve functionality, the feature limitation (e.g. no pre-recording) as well as the number of premature battery failures I've had (not necessarily Blink's fault since they're Energizer Lithium), I would advise others to steer clear of the Blink ecosystem. While their price point is alluring, the headache involved in setup, maintenance, and using them for their intended purpose makes me wish I chose something else to go "all-in" on for two homes that I recently set up.
