The Blink 2K Wireless Flood Camera Is Now 40% Off.
The Blink Outdoor 2K+ Wireless Floodlight Camera is on sale on Amazon for $77.99, down from $129.99, and according to price tracking data, this is the lowest price yet. For this price, you get a battery-powered outdoor camera and a motion-activated floodlight in one package, without the need to run wires through an exterior wall. The camera records video in up to 2K resolution and covers a 135-degree field of view, while the floodlight adds 700 lumens when motion is detected. This combination is perfect for a driveway, side entrance, or backyard where you need both visibility and a recording of who activated the light. The Blink kit also includes a sync module, two AA lithium batteries for the camera, four D batteries for the floodlight, and mounting hardware, so a basic setup is ready right out of the box.
In everyday use, the Outdoor 2K+ handles the basics you’d expect from an outdoor security camera, including motion alerts, night vision, two-way audio, and Alexa support. The higher 2K resolution also gives you a better chance of spotting a face, package, or license plate than older 1080p Blink cameras, and since it’s wireless, you’re not limited to locations near an electrical outlet. However, while it works with Alexa and IFTTT, it doesn’t support Apple HomeKit or Google Assistant, making it less suitable for use outside of an Alexa-powered smart home system. Blink claims a battery life of up to two years for this spotlight camera, though actual results will vary depending on recording frequency and usage.
In addition to basic motion alerts, the camera can recognize people and vehicles and generate motion event descriptions using AI, but some of these features require a paid plan—purchase includes a free 30-day trial, after which the basic Blink plan costs $3.99 per month or $39.99 per year for one device. You can opt for a subscription and save video locally, but the included Core Sync Module doesn’t support local storage. This means you’ll need to purchase the XR Sync Module ($73.53) and a microSD card ($29.99), so it’s worth considering these additional costs before deciding whether this $78 deal is right for you.
