If you’re looking for complete security camera coverage for your home, Blink’s Whole Home Bundle can serve as a base to build on later. This bundle includes a Blink Outdoor camera, a Blink Mini Indoor camera, a Blink Video Doorbell, and a Blink Sync Module 2. The Blink Video Doorbell gives you the option of running on battery power or connecting to existing doorbell wires. The Video Doorbell has 1080p HD video resolution, infrared night vision video, motion detection, and 2-way on-demand audio. When you power the Blink Video Doorbell with wires you can use the Chime app to ring your existing home doorbell chime. The bundled Blink Outdoor camera can also run on batteries or with a wire connection. The Blink Mini Indoor camera is wired-power only, via included USB power cable and AC adapter. This core Blink system may be all you need, depending on your home security layout, but you can also add additional Blink cameras and video doorbells in the future.

How to choose a Blink security camera

If you’ve decided to configure your home with an array of Blink security cameras, you have a few simple choices to make. Rather than start wondering about which cameras to buy and how many, think about what areas inside and outside your home you want to protect or monitor. The best way to save with Blink camera deals is to know how to allocate the cameras for different uses.

One of the best features of Blink security cameras is they all work together. Even the Blink Mini Indoor Camera, the only model that can operate with only a Wi-Fi connection and a smartphone app, can be part of a system that also incorporates a Blink Sync Module to manage multiple cameras and to store local video clip recordings.

There are many ways to setup a Blink security system. If you only want one or two Blink cameras for indoor locations within reach of AC outlets, the Blink Mini Indoor Camera is a great choice. You can name each camera separately and monitor them via the Blink smartphone app. If you want to install a Blink Camera inside, but there’s no AC outlet in reasonable reach, the battery-powered Blink Indoor Camera is your best choice. The Indoor Camera costs a bit less than the Blink Outdoor Camera, which can work inside and outside. If money isn’t an object, buying all Blink Outdoor Cameras for use inside and outside gives you the most flexibility if you later change the camera locations. The Blink Outdoor Camera is the most expensive of the line but is still a bargain even at list price compared to many other brands.

You’ll definitely want to watch for Blink camera sales because usually when they go on sale, all three models and all configurations go on sale at the same time. You can buy bundled sets of Blink Indoor Cameras and Blink Outdoor Cameras with a Sync Module included as a one-camera system in two-camera, three-camera, and five-camera bundles. As always, when you look for Blink camera sales, the best deal is the one that includes the items you need in the correct quantity while letting you stay within your budget.
