- Do I need a subscription to use the Blink Outdoor 2K?
- No. With a Sync Module 2 and a USB flash drive you can save motion clips locally and watch live view without a plan. Person detection and cloud storage need a Blink subscription.
- How long do the batteries really last?
- Blink rates them at up to two years. Real use with frequent live viewing and heavy motion traffic shortens that, and cold weather drains them faster.
- Is it better than the older 1080p Blink Outdoor?
- Yes for picture detail: the 2K sensor resolves more, which helps identify faces and plates. Battery life, mounting and the app are otherwise much the same.
- Can it record continuously?
- No. It records motion-triggered clips only, so it suits spot checking rather than 24/7 surveillance.
- What is in the five-pack box?
- Five cameras, five mounting kits, AA lithium batteries and one Sync Module 2. A USB drive for local storage is not included.
- Does it work without Alexa?
- Yes. The Blink app handles setup, live view and clips on iOS and Android. Alexa adds voice viewing on Echo Show screens.
