Tweaker neighbors
The only thing that worked for me with the tweaker next door was putting up cameras everywhere. The alley? Yep. Both directions. The backyard? Two more, one records continuous onto an sd card. The front? Doorbell and blink camera. The alley cameras are literally the only reason the losers stopped us

acho que a proprietária da casa que alugo está entrando na minha casa quando saio para o trabalho
Blink cameras work just fine & will alert you as long as you have it ‘armed’ in the app. Place one in your main rooms & look at a ‘live’ view at different times during the day. If you want the person to see it so they know they are being recorded, just leave it on a table or counter. Blink makes a g

Woman living alone, where to start?
So many thoughts on this, and a few folks here have hit some great points already. Here is my 2 cents. For video doorbells, I'd skip both Blink and Wyze and go with the Ring Video Doorbell (battery version) since it's more reliable for security purposes and has better motion detection zones. The fre

Paranoid living alone
get a blink video doorbell from amazon and blink indoor cams to put in your window sills facing outside that is easier than installing an outdoor security system. the video doorbell helps because it alerts you if someone goes by your front door so you're not wondering if anyone is out there if you s

Home security cameras without monthly payment
I have Blink, they talk to a hub in your home that can then send you a notice when the camera is triggered, and store videos or images to a USB stick that plugs into it. There is quite a delay however, most of the time when someone rind the doorbell button, they walk away before I can respond.

Weekly Stupid Question Sunday
Wired floodlight cams. The video and sound quality is lacking, connectivity and motion detection issues, live view can be laggy, issues with the app. We have a long range router, so it's not the wifi. They're okay, and have held up to various weather situations, but when some stuff went down in our

Hot take: the “best video doorbell” isn’t what most people recommend — thoughts?
The whole category feels overengineered for what it’s trying to solve, and people keep bending their expectations to justify keeping these things installed. Used a Blink doorbell for a while and it highlighted something weird: the more features it had, the less I trusted it. Not because it broke, bu

Is this right?
Okay your initial photo suggested you were getting some cropped zoomed in video. You can change the video quality if you want but your doorbell camera is more designed for detecting people coming to your door than trying to read wording on bins. But good news, you can add loads more blink cameras fo

Blink doorbell camera only records 1 second
I know this is 4 years too late but did anyone ever get a fix? I had blink at my old house and it would always record 10 seconds minimum even when a tree branch moved. Now I moved to an apartment purchased a blink and at first works great records 10 seconds but then suddenly it’ll record 5 seconds s

It finally happened 😭💔
Ya, we've had several same experiences. These cameras are motion sensitive and so many factors affect them, delta or difference in temperatures probably main shortcoming. I have had Blink for years and they help but ya, the couple times anything happened, they just aren't reliable. We bought a Reoli
