This Arlo 4-camera security kit is $150 off at Best Buy for Black Friday

The Arlo Essential Spotlight 4 outside in the elements.

While this year’s Black Friday savings seem to have been going on for longer than ever before, the big day has finally arrived. And with that we’ve got fantastic Best Buy Black Friday deals to deliver to you. Right now we want to highlight a product from Arlo — a brand consistently seen among our favorite home security cams — that’s just $300 today. That’s right, the four-pack of Arlo Essential Spotlight cams — plus a yard sign to warn potential criminals you’re protected — is $150 off the standard price of $450 during Best Buy’s Black Friday event.

Why you should buy the Arlo Essential Spotlight 4-camera security kit

The Arlo Essential Spotlight is a 1080p security cam that can go anywhere: indoors or out. When you get a pack of four, you won’t have to worry about stuffing them all in your home or about keeping four unsightly cams outsider your house. In other words, this has all of the aesthetics and charm of the best indoor security cams while also being able to weather the elements. As an outdoor security cam, it’s able to handle both the extreme cold as well as sweltering heat, and it has a wide-angle field of view of 130 degrees, or just over a third of a full circle. You’ll be able to catch troublemakers — in full 1080p and in color — in a broad range, probably more so than they expect. Add on the fact that the Arlo Essential Spotlight has night vision, and you’ll be feeling super secure.

The Arlo Essential Spotlight is also rather smart. It utilizes cloud storage, powerful batteries that hold a charge for six months, and Wi-Fi keeps everything wireless. You’ll get access to the Arlo app, which will let you see what is going on via your smartphone at any time, let you use two-way audio with people near one of your cams, and signal a built-in siren to make wrongdoers scram. Plus, it works with Alexa, Google Assistant, Apple HomeKit, and SmartThings to integrate with your current smart home devices.

So, if you’re ready to get four awesome cameras for just $300, then now is your chance. That’s $150 off the standard $450 price tag. If you’re interested, you can even get professional installation for $180, which is about the average price for security cam installation. However, we believe in your ability to install this simple, wire-free device yourself!

Why you should buy the Jackery Explorer 290 solar generator with SolarSaga solar panel
The Jackery Explorer 290 portable solar generator is a nifty device to keep around. With its 290-watt hours of power it makes a great backup for devices and lamps during power outages, but it also makes a great sidekick if you do a lot of camping or RV adventuring. It’s built in the same mold as the more powerful Jackery Explorer 1000, and while it doesn’t make the list of the best portable power stations like the Explorer 1000, it’s only because the Explorer 290 is made for people with lesser portable electricity needs. The Explorer 290 is eco-frinedly and quiet, and it allows you to charge four different devices simultaneously. It can handle such devices and appliances as a mini fridge, smartphones, tablets, and laptops, among many others.

Why you should buy the Hisense 120-inch L9 Series TriChroma Laser TV
On your hunt for a new TV, you've probably read up on QLED and OLED technology, but what about laser TVs? A laser TV is essentially a laser-powered ultra short throw (UST) projector. LG released its own twin-laser-based projector TV back in 2019 and the technology has improved a ton since. And before we go deeper -- no, you don't have to worry about the lasers cutting a hole through your wall -- that's not how these work. Also, although the lasers are very bright, a proximity sensor will keep you safe from any potential (but unlikely) issues.
