We have Blink. It works. Can look in via phone when we are away.

I have them. The one over the garage that gets a lot of traffic has issues sometimes. Not sure if it's due to the location or the specific camera.

That's good to know. How good is the video? I saw that they have free cloud storage too. How much storage do you get for free and is it enough. How easy was the installation?

How much further are you looking to go with security? Those are good cameras but I went with the Ring set up in case I want their cheap 24/7 monitoring

They work real well. I’ve got them sprinkled in various woman’s bathrooms throughout the city.

Installed a three pack a few weeks ago and couldn’t be happier with them.
Highly recommend.
The installation was shockingly easy.
Also, I recommend buying separately the arms to connect them to that allow you to swivel them.

How easy is the installation or did you have someone install it for you?

You basically just download the app, connect them to your WiFi through that and hang them up. There are no wires.

Blink or Ring?

This is an amazon product. They just named it blink or maybe acquired the blink name to label their cameras. They have pushed amazon products on people so much that it's absolutely nauseating to search their site so now they're just putting amazon products under different names. I wouldn't really put much stock in the reviews because Amazon is already known for fake reviews so I wouldn't think they'd actually be honest with their own product reviews. I was wondering how a product that I've never heard of or seen had so many reviews and how most were all wonderful reviews. Amazon is just openly playing the reviews game at this point.

Or what about a wireless lorex system...they have great reviews. The only thing that I'm not certain on is that it only records and turns on when detecting motion. That's great for extending the battery life, but if I randomly want to view a camera....that's not an option. You have to have a hard wired/powered camera for that. I'm curious how these are systems are and if that's really been something that inconvenient for anyone?
Lorex wireless system, anyone use this brand before?

Blink is motion detected. If a camera triggers, it records and sends a push notification to your phone where you can view it. You can easily adjust motion trigger sensitivity. Includes sound.
You can also turn on a live view on anytime you want.
Arming and disarming is quick and easy.
The Blink system basically had everything I wanted when I was looking for a system.

So I had originally read that Ring worked in the Google ecosystem. It appears I read wrong. I am having to send them back and will go with nest

Been having Blink cameras for two years. Work great, easy installation and still on original batteries.
