Blink Mini Indoor Plug-In CCTV Smart Security Camera - White

Yes, you have two storage options: 

• Cloud Storage: With a Blink Subscription Plan, your motion detection and Live View recordings are stored in the cloud for up to 60 days (30 days in the EU/UK).
• Local Storage: By adding your Blink Mini to a system with a Sync Module 2 (sold separately) and connecting a recognised USB flash drive, your motion clips can be saved locally without a subscription. Ensure the Mini is part of the same system as the Sync Module 2 for this feature to work.  

Yes, the Blink Mini integrates with Alexa-enabled devices. By enabling the Blink SmartHome skill, you can view live streams, play back motion clips, and arm or disarm your camera using voice commands.

No, the Blink Mini is designed exclusively for indoor use. It is not weather-resistant and should not be placed outdoors.

The Blink Mini comes with a stand that attaches to the camera. You can place it on a flat surface or mount it on a wall using the provided hardware.

The Blink Mini features LED indicators that convey various statuses: 

• Solid Blue: The camera is active and recording.

Yes, the Blink Mini requires a Wi-Fi connection set up and function. Here’s why: 

• Connectivity: The Blink Mini streams live video, sends motion alerts, and uploads video clips to the cloud or local storage, all of which require an active internet connection.
• Remote Access: To view live feeds or recordings and manage settings in the Blink app, the Mini must stay connected to a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network.  
• Syncing: If you're using local storage with a Sync Module 2, the Mini still needs Wi-Fi to communicate with the Sync Module.

No, the Blink Mini Indoor Plug-in CCTV Security Camera will not work during a power outage. Here’s why: 

• Power Dependency: The Blink Mini is a plug-in camera and does not have a built-in battery. It requires continuous power from a wall outlet to operate.
• Wi-Fi Dependency: In addition to power, the camera needs a Wi-Fi connection to send notifications, stream live video, and record clips. If your Wi-Fi router is also affected by the power outage, the camera won't be able to function even if it somehow receives power.
