The Blink 2K Outdoor Camera Kit Is Now 45% Off.
The Blink Outdoor 2K+ dual-camera system is on sale on Amazon for $87.99, down from $159.99, and according to price tracking data, this is the lowest price yet. That’s approximately $44 per camera, compared to $54.99 for a single camera . Two cameras provide sufficient coverage for common combinations, such as a front door and driveway or a backyard and side entrance, without the need to immediately add another device. The Blink kit also includes a sync module, batteries, and mounting hardware, so you don’t need anything else to get started.
Each camera is powered by two AA lithium batteries, and Blink estimates battery life with typical use and power-saving settings can be up to two years—actual battery life will vary depending on recording frequency and selected settings. Incidentally, the video resolution is 2560 x 1440 pixels, with a 135-degree diagonal field of view, so one camera should be sufficient for capturing a typical porch or driveway without the need for precise placement. Two-way audio, motion alerts, and a night mode are also included, ensuring the cameras offer all the essential features you’d expect from an outdoor video surveillance system.
Please note that some of Blink’s smart features, including AI-generated descriptions of recorded events, require a paid plan , as does cloud storage for clips. Plans start at $3.99 per month for a single camera, with AI features costing more, so ongoing costs can add up if you want the full suite of features. The cameras are also best suited for Alexa-powered homes, as they work with Alexa and IFTTT, but not with Apple HomeKit or Google Home, according to a PCMag review . Still, $88 is a reasonable way to cover two important areas of your home with battery-powered 2K cameras.
