    Sweet! I was looking for just this vid! Thanks for sharing!

    Thank you! Just bought one and will be installing soon. I don’t have a round junction box, but I’ll look for something like yours to mount it. Yours looks great! 👍🙌

      Welcome. The wire literally just goes through the outside of the house with no electrical box. You can buy those vinyl mounting blocks at lowes or depot or even amazon like this one was mounted on.

    Will the lights work without WiFi? I understand that the camera needs WiFi & sync box, but will the lights work independently when WiFi is off?

      I will test that and let you know

      Customer support says it has to have WiFi to light up, so I’m returning it and will get something else.

    Are you able to adjust the brightness of the lights?

    • @theguyofalltrades
      @theguyofalltrades  7 місяців тому

      Yup. In the blink app you can. There’s quite a few settings for motion and recording too

      No siren but you will get a blink alert through the app. You don’t need subscription if you have the sync module otherwise you will

      Nope not this one. They make a totally wireless version that’s battery powered but it’s not as bright as the wired version

    Having an issue with the light turning on during detected motion. System is armed. If I select light on in the settings it does turn on. But once it times out, motion doesn’t activate it again. I’m seeing the same comments in Amazon chats with no resolution. Have you had this issue?

      I’m set a sensitivity 4, record all motion, 60s clip length, 60s retrigger, and 5 minute timeout. Seems to work well for me
