Looking for a doorbell camera that isn't a Flock spy

None of the residential security cameras are Flock spies. But the WiFi Cloud cameras spy for themselves. Avoid ALL WiFi Recurring Subscription Cloud Cameras, as they all have at least one vulnerability: Ring, Nest, Eufy, Wyze, Blink, Arlo, etc. Always PoE if possible, anything going to the Cloud is

Any issues with Blink Sync 2? Wary of planned obselescence!

I have a sync 1 and a sync 2 module. I have a mix of older and very new outdoor cameras on both and they work fine. The only issue I had was getting the new Blink Video doorbell to stay on the sync 2 and it would not even though it was 4 feet from the doorbell. Cameras 30-40 feet away from it had no

All cameras have stopped working

I agree with both of you. It was initially a Christmas present from my husband and now I have 9 cameras & the doorbell. I trap & fix cats so most of my cameras are super low and pointed in crazy directions. But CS sucks at Blink and randomly a camera will go offline for no reason (even before I had

Multi band router issue

I set up a guest network on 2.4ghz only and moved all my IOT devices onto it, which includes my Blink cameras. No issues at all, everything is running smoothly. This avoids the band-steering tech built into new routers that can mess up devices they must stay on 2.4ghz. For you, try it for just the d

Got robbed and yet all my clips magically disappear

Sorry to hear you were robbed and lost footage. However, let this sort of be a lesson for you. The key thing here is you should never use a wireless camera for security. Security cameras should always be wired and connected to a device that records the video, such as a NVR. One strong possibility he

another logitech circle view doorbell question

Your previous blink video doorbell was able to ring your physical chime and be powered from the doorbell wires without a special adapter? Even the ring doorbells need a similar adapter. Without it, the video doorbell pulling power through the wiring all the time would partially actuate the doorbell

Would you do it over again?

I'm happy with the wired stuff but if I had it to do all over again I'd go with Ring. I tried going from a Ring doorbell to Blink and it was horrible in comparison so i swapped it back out. Then I've swapped out all the Blink stuff on the front of the house to Ring camera's, much better video qualit

Blink doorbell cameras do use power from existing doorbell wiring

I will try to clear up the confusion. First, the documentation is piss poor and unless you understand electricity, it does not make sense "why" it does not work. With that said, I have a blink camera that has always run on rechargeable lithium ions and it is connected to my Alexa system. In that set

The new update is so inconvenient

My experience is that both the app has gotten worse (usability), but also Blink infrastructure has gotten more unreliable lately. My video doorbell would not update for 3 consecutive days. Tried factory reset of EVERYTHING from sync module, IOS app, & doorbell, and even rebooted modem & router. Even
