Just want to THANK YOU for doing this video!, it is great and informative! I was perplexed as to why there were no set up instructions in the box nor on the Blinkset up website, gheez. Grateful for you.
Great clip . Great happy couple . I bought box of 3 cameras almost a year now and still haven't put it up , what a lazy bum , will do it right now . Thank you and thank you ')
Bought this one because the older version ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx0jZ_lGlDVJhDnmagEU8gn47cmfPNlLQ had was really choppy and would disconnect from the wifi ALOT, was not catching everything and every week j had to charge it. So far the picture quality on this one is exceptional. I also bought a solar panel with it so I will see how this all turns out.
I am looking at buying a blink camera system. Is it possible to just buy Blink add-on cameras and then a sync module all separately/individually, as it is cheaper is why i ask? Or do I have to buy a camera and sync module together or as a bundle the first time?
Yes, if you want the local recording. Get a 128GB Flash Drive and just leave it plugged in and it will record the clips to that drive as well as the cloud.
How can I tell if the batteries are dead - the camera may stop responding for reasons other than dead batteries, so It's important to know when the batteries are dead.
Correct, but that should not be an issue. As 2.4Ghz wifi reaches further than 5G WiFi. If you only have 1 SSID, the device will know it can only connect to the 2.4Ghz and it will connect to it automatically with no issues.

Hey there! Thanks for the video!!! Help me a lot to make my decision!
How far you can walk or drive away to be able to see the camera?
Great review! I have the system with the 5 cameras and I love it.
@Michael or BigC questions on this system can you go on your phone and look back on recordings of previous days?
Great video, very informative.
How can you see both cameras on the same iphone or computer screen?
What light or lights show when the batteries are being charged?
none, its just AA batteries.
@@BigCVlogs Thx for your answers - I didn't see info about batteries/lights in the FAQs.
Please my question the module is the wifi or you most have a router to connect with the module
It's wifi.
From the app on phone? Thank you
As long as your home Internet is up and your phone has its signal, you can view them from anywhere in the world.
I am looking at buying a blink camera system. Is it possible to just buy Blink add-on cameras and then a sync module all separately/individually, as it is cheaper is why i ask? Or do I have to buy a camera and sync module together or as a bundle the first time?
Yes, once you have a sync module, you can just buy extra cameras and connect them to that sync module.
How much module do you get with 5 cameras?
I'll follow this video to set up my 5 camara system. 👍👍 Question, do you leave a flash drive in the monitor all the time to save videos?
Yes, if you want the local recording. Get a 128GB Flash Drive and just leave it plugged in and it will record the clips to that drive as well as the cloud.
@@BigCVlogs Have you ever used a external Hard drive versus a flash drive to save videos?
Do you have to pay for a subscription ?
No, if you get an USB drive you can avoid the monthing fees.
Thank you, super review and instruction
Does it have live view.?
Yes, you can live view from the app.
Do you have to pay a monthly fee for these?
No, you can just put in an USB Drive and record everything locally. Or you do have an option to pay the monthly fee for the cloud but its not forced.
Do you need the module for just 1 camera???
From my understanding of this system, Yes sadly. They dont have wifi built into the Cameras, the Cameras talk to the base station.
How long the battery last?
It should last up to 6 months depending on your settings.
Very heplful❤
Works with my 5G
Why are you starting with an app that who knows what it is or where you got it?
How can I tell if the batteries are dead - the camera may stop responding for reasons other than dead batteries, so It's important to know when the batteries are dead.
The app will tell you as the batteries get low so you can change them.
Setting up now, why is the sound making a loud screeching sound?
Since I have a brick house, I'll have to get masonry screws. I guess.
Yes, yours will be a bit harder to install but once they are up you should be all set.
I tried the camera, I walked in from of it after mounting it, it didn't record??
Did you set the camera to ARM so it records from motion? Also, in the motion settings for that camera, Motion Detection has to be slid over to on.
@@ericmiguel1680 Yes, I realized that after the fact. Thanks.
Those lithium batteries will probably last longer than two years
Doesn't work with 4g or 5g wifi only 2.4
Correct, but that should not be an issue. As 2.4Ghz wifi reaches further than 5G WiFi. If you only have 1 SSID, the device will know it can only connect to the 2.4Ghz and it will connect to it automatically with no issues.
2 years my ass😹
my goodness people just explain the system
Bought a 3rd Gen - doesn’t sense motion beyond approx 5 ft - it is a total piece of junk…
Blink support is the worst I've came across
I luckily have not needed them.
@@BigCVlogs not an answer I wanted to hear
so can you use 3 cameras on your phone and see the same time??? because its useless to me if you can only use one at a time.
Why buy 3 cameras if you can only see 1 at a time... What a JOKE !!!
You are joking. Are you?
What light or lights show when the batteries are fully charged?
None, this camera uses AA batteries. So you just put them in and use them till they die. The camera app will tell you as they get low on power.
