Blink and you’ll miss it – Blink home security cameras are up to 40% off for a limited time
Get started on your first home security set up for as low as AU$16 per camera
Have you considered giving security cameras a try but didn’t want to spend too much? You’re in luck, because Amazon Australia has discounted three of its cameras under its Blink range of budget-oriented security cameras, with prices starting at just AU$35.
While Amazon’s Ring home security offerings are arguably more well-known, they can cost a few hundred dollars at the top end – although I have seen some models drop to as low as AU$75. Blink, however, is a more affordable line of cameras that are aimed at consumers on a budget or a beginner option with basic functionality.
I’ve picked out 3 standout models from the Blink range below, but if there’s something else you’re looking for, be sure to check out the full range of Blink cameras and security systems on the official Amazon storefront.
The Blink Outdoor 4 records in moments rather than ongoing footage, which is great if you don’t want to constantly sort through lengthy footage. It will also create clips whenever it detects motion. The Sync Module 2 is included in the box, plus two AA batteries, a mounting kit, a USB cable and a power adapter (for the Sync Module). This bundle includes a battery extension pack promising up to four years of battery life. If you want more cameras, you can get two for AU$142 (was AU$237) or three for AU$185 (was AU$336).
Don’t underestimate its size (and price point for that matter), because this tiny security camera boasts a hi-res 2K camera (2,560 x 1,440 pixels) and a spotlight for visibility during nighttime. Due to its compact size of 5cm x 5cm (8cm tall with the base included), the Blink Mini 2K+ is wired-only, but can be installed outdoors with Blink’s weather resistant power adaptor, which is sold separately. Two cameras are cheaper on a per-unit cost at AU$49, while the bundle with the Blink Video Doorbell is available for AU$80.
The predecessor to the Mini 2K+ above, the Blink Mini 2 is even cheaper at AU$32 for two cameras, or AU$16 for each camera (although buying just a single camera isn’t available on Amazon). The camera is 1080p, which is more than enough for most people, and it can still store video footage locally with the Sync Module 2. At full price, I’d normally steer you to the Mini 2K+, but this discount can help you start with home security tech for a low price.
Other than their affordable price point, another stand out feature of Blink cameras is that unlike many brands, which tend to lock necessary features behind a paywall, Blink cameras give you the option to store video locally with the Blink Sync Module 2 – so you can completely forgo the subscription fees altogether by plugging in a storage drive. The Sync Module 2 also allows you to manage up to 10 cameras in one system.
There are further features available via paid-for subscriptions – Blink Basic (AU$4.95p/m) or Blink Plus (AU$15p/m) – which include up to 60 days of unlimited cloud storage, photo capture, easy video sharing and local storage online back-ups. If you just want to save recordings for future viewing though, you can get away with not having to subscribe.
You’ll need to hurry if you want to protect your home for less, as these Blink home security camera deals are set to expire at the stroke of midnight tonight, January 28.
