Hurry! Ring Stick Up Cam is on sale for only $85 — with a free Echo Dot

Memorial Day marks the unofficial beginning of summer. We’ll hopefully be out of the house more as the weather warms, but so will the bad guys too. Amazon had already marked down the Ring Stick Up Cam Battery as part of its early Memorial Day sales, dropping the price from $100 down to $85, but its also now offering a free Echo Dot worth $50 with each order — making this one of the best security camera deals we’ve seen as of late.

While there are many options out there when it comes to security cameras, the Ring Stick Up Cam Battery ranks near the top of our list thanks to its versatility and affordability. The base can be bent in almost any direction to give you flexibility on where you put it, whether on a flat or vertical surface.

Setup is also super easy, made possible by Ring’s fantastic app. For a battery-powered camera, the video is quite impressive, with 1080p video, which is surprisingly clear and detailed. Even the night vision is pretty clear — enough to identify who’s out there.

While there are plenty of outdoor wireless cameras on the market, we like Ring’s Stick Up Cam Battery because of how versatile and affordable it is. It comes with a base that can be bent in multiple directions and allow for mounting on a ceiling, wall, fence post, or wherever you want to stick it. The setup of the device takes just a few minutes via Ring’s fantastic app.

Adjustable motion detection will help cut down on accidental triggers, and two-way audio allows you to both hear what’s going on and talk as well. Ring’s cameras also feature noise cancellation, which eliminates background noise.

This sale is likely to expire after Memorial Day weekend (or even before, depending on how much stock was set aside for the offer), so act quickly — this is one of the better prices we’ve seen on the Stick Up Cam so far.

The official sale starts tomorrow, June 21, but the Prime Day deals are already rolling in before the big event. This is always one of the best times of the year to shop for tech and there are plenty of great Prime Day smart home deals on tap right now. One of the best applications of this burgeoning technology is home security, and for Prime Day, Amazon has the excellent Ring 8-piece home security system on sale for a whopping $100 discount. Read on to find out more about it.

The "smart home revolution" may have been a bit over-sold when this phrase first entered common parlance, but few can deny that leveraging new technologies for home security actually makes a lot of sense (much more sense than an internet-connected washing machine, at least). Ring largely led the way here with its excellent video doorbells and other smart home security devices, and the new second-generation Ring Alarm system has just about everything we love about this do-it-yourself tech.
