Your home is the place where you should feel safest. That’s why you should invest in a little added peace of mind—and, yes, you can buy that. Smart home security cameras like those from Amazon’s Blink brand will keep watch 24/7 and report to you via the Blink Home Monitor app on your smartphone (or your Echo Show). You can even use Alexa to give them commands, adding convenience to your safety. Amazon’s second Prime Day event is on Oct. 11-12, and can score some Prime Early Access Sale deals right now.
The Best Prime Day Blink Camera Deals
The biggest draw for the Blink devices is that they offer wire-free options for both indoor and outdoor cameras and they have a long battery life (up to two years on two AA lithium batteries). Wireless cameras are convenient if you are renting and/or need more range than a wired setup can provide, but add the hassle of changing out batteries or dismounting your devices to charge them. Right now, Amazon is offering a free Blink Mini with its outdoor cameras or, for an extra $10, get the Echo Show 5 smart display instead.
Like other cameras of their kind, Blink cameras work without a service plan(Opens in a new window), but you’ll need one if you want anything other than live streaming. The Blink Basic Plan activates video recording for a single device for $30 per year, while the Blink Plus Plan costs $100 but applies to all devices in your Blink network.
Blink Video Doorbell + 2x Outdoor Cams + Sync Module
The Blink Video Doorbell offers all the features of its competitors: motion detection, two-way audio, alerts via a proprietary app, and smart assistant connectivity. It’s one of those little gadgets meant to make your life easier and saving money on it is definitely a plus. This bundle includes the Sync Module that allows live-view and two-way audio, versus only activating in response to someone ringing your doorbell or triggering the motion sensor.
Blink Mini 1080p Indoor Camera (2-Pack)
The Blink Mini is a top seller in Amazon’s pet supplies category because of its low price and the ability to use it to see, hear, and talk to your beloved furry friend from your smartphone, no matter where you are. But don’t limit yourself to pet surveillance: you can customize your detection zones to keep an eye on what matters most to you. When used in conjunction with the wireless Blink Video Doorbell, the Blink Mini can be used as an indoor plug-in chime.
Blink Outdoor Cameras (2-Pack) + Free Blink Mini
Blink Outdoor is a wireless, battery-powered security camera that makes it easy to monitor your home’s surroundings with two-way audio, HD video, motion detection, and infrared night vision. This sturdy device will withstand the elements, which is important if you’re setting up in an area that has less than optimal shelter, and can run for up to two years on two AA lithium batteries. That’s it. For a few more bucks, you can add on an Echo Show 5 instead of the Blink Mini.
