      Jeff..Great video. One thing i noticed, i only have 5 sec for clips and your demo shows you have 60 sec for clips. Do you know how i can get 60 secs? Maybe its the software/firmware versions.

    I've watched a few videos on how to set up a Blink system. This is by far the best!

  • @chucknorse6571
    @chucknorse6571 2 роки тому +42

    Couple things to point out from using them for a year:
    You don't have to pay for a service if you use a thumb drive on your Sync module.
    Without the service you have to watch the video before deleting it unless you access the thumb drive using a computer.
    The 2 year battery time is dependent on the settings, more sensitive, more videos, less battery..
    Don't put the backs on the cameras until you're done setting them up on the Sync module since you need to scan the QR codes in the battery compartment.
    Night vision isn't that great, it's best if you have a porch light on or some other ambient light.
    The doorbells do have an optional piece you can buy that allows you to angle them.
    You cannot setup a separate login, you must share the username and password.
    Hopefully this helps.

    I was looking for an outdoor camera to keep an eye on my dogs in the yard when I'm not home. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxOXxsTZ3ptV_Pk0fFl8bNZvVqeoqBQFwe Tried a different one that was absolutely terrible, so I got these instead. They work perfectly! With 3 of these cameras I can see every corner of the yard, and they were very easy to set up. The best part is I only get the footage I want to see, not hours of videos of the bird feeder swaying in the breeze.

    • @elmerlopez2736
      @elmerlopez2736 2 роки тому +1

      Armed at night or when your not home so you can get notifications on your mobile device

    • @leahcimd
      @leahcimd 2 роки тому

      When you armed the system it will start to record whatever it picks up in motion and it will alert you that it detected motion and it will save that video to your clips. When you have the system disarmed it does not record any clips.

    • @leshee3000
      @leshee3000 3 роки тому +2

      the "key" is actually part of the mount. you screw the battery back in, then use that to click onto the camera, then click the mount onto the key. I watched another video showing that and it made much more sense.
