1 / 6Blink Outdoor 4 2-Camera Wireless Security System
Blink Outdoor 4 is a two-camera wireless security system with 1080p HD live view, infrared night vision and two-way talk. Its Sync Module Core does not provide local storage, so buyers wanting recorded clips should account for the listed cloud subscription trial or a separately sold storage setup.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Sync Module Core store clips locally?
No. The listing says Sync Module Core does not offer local storage. A compatible Sync Module XR with a MicroSD card or Sync Module 2 with a USB flash drive is sold separately.
Is person detection included without a subscription?
No. The listing ties person detection to an optional Blink Subscription Plan sold separately.
What does the two-year battery claim mean?
The manufacturer claims up to two years with the included AA Energizer lithium batteries and Sync Module Core. Customer feedback reports shorter battery life, so the claim should not be treated as guaranteed.
Can it work with Alexa?
Yes. The listing says it works with an Alexa-enabled device for voice functions including arming and disarming and multi-camera live view.
