The affordable and user-friendly Blink products and accessories are now available on Amazon.com.au/Blink, bringing simple, yet feature-packed, home monitoring to the masses.
The Blink lineup includes the wireless Outdoor 4 camera and the compact plug-in Mini 2 model, with prices starting at AU$149/NZ$169 for the Outdoor 4 and at just AU$69/NZ$79 for the Mini 2. Both feature 1080p HD video, two-way audio to chat with visitors, and motion detection to keep you looped in on any activity around your home, and are designed to give peace of mind to all customers from wherever they are.
This launch comes as new local research shows the desire from Australians for home security products, with 83% of Australians stating they are willing to invest in home security annually. However, at a time when many are feeling the pinch from cost-of-living pressures, 43% say cost is a barrier, with Australians overall only willing to invest an average of AU$292 annually. In New Zealand, 29% state that they don’t already own a home security device and are wanting to purchase an indoor or outdoor camera for their home, with 44% identifying cost as a barrier. Kiwis are willing to invest less on home security with an average of $245 annually.
“We know that customers want to invest in home security products but that cost-of-living pressures are impacting us all. We’re thrilled to launch Blink in Australia and New Zealand, bringing our customers more feature-packed options at incredible value,” said Mark Fletcher, Blink Managing Director, APAC. “For those considering the installation of a smart home security system, the Outdoor 4 and Mini 2 cameras from Blink are an ideal, and affordable, place to start.”
Blink Outdoor 4 – Wireless Outdoor Camera with Two-Year Battery Life and Enhanced Motion Detection – from AU$149/NZ$169
Blink Outdoor 4 is a battery-powered outdoor camera which delivers high image quality at 1080p for HD live view, infrared night vision, crisp two-way audio, and a wide field-of-view. The versatile camera also features advanced dual-zone motion detection, that helps customers get alerted to motion faster from their smartphone to help them see what’s happening at home faster than ever. All image processing takes place locally, on-device, with just two AA batteries providing up to two years of battery life.
Outdoor 4 comes bundled with the Blink Sync Module 2 so customers can conveniently control their camera from the Blink app. The Sync Module 2 plugs into an electrical outlet and connects to Wi-Fi, with the ability to connect up to 10 Blink cameras allowing customers to view, share, and store motion events locally.
Blink Mini 2 – Plug-in Indoor / Outdoor Camera with HD Night View in Colour and Built-in Spotlight – from AU$69/NZ$79
Blink Mini 2 is a compact, plug-in camera that offers enhanced image quality of 1080p HD live view, a wide field of view, a built-in LED spotlight with HD night view in colour, crisp two-way audio, and motion detection.
Mini 2’s weather-resistant design allows it to be used outdoors as well when purchased with the Blink Weather Resistant Power Adapter – sold separately or as part of a bundle with the Mini 2. This 4m adapter can also be used to provide non-stop power for Blink Outdoor 4.
Both the Outdoor 4 and Mini 2 models include customised Activity Zones, so customers are only alerted to the movement they care about. This eliminates unwanted notifications and allows customers to choose what areas of their properties, both inside and out, are recorded. Alexa customers can use the Alexa Blink Smart Home Skill to connect their Blink cameras to an Echo device and receive alerts, check live view on-demand, arm and disarm their camera, and more.
