Blink XT2 Camera Audio

Blink XT2 Camera Audio

The quality of the audio is pretty good as far as detecting audio on screen as well as enabling 2-way audio from your smartphone to the camera mic.

Audio in and out was easily discernible and clear.

The Blink camera does not include an audible siren.

The Blink App

To view your recorded footage or get instant notifications, you’ll need to download the Blink app. This app helps to organize activity snippets with easy-to-read time stamps.

At the top, there is a storage bar that shows exactly how much storage you’ve used and how much you have left.

Blink security camera app

Once your camera is paired to the app, you’ll have some options when motion is detected. First off, you’ll receive an instant push notification to your phone. From there, you can:

  1. View: view stored video for yourself and watch a live-feed
  2. Ignore: ignore the alert; regardless of your decision, the footage is stored on the Cloud with all of the other detected footage that the camera has captured

If you have multiple Blink cameras, the app makes it easy to manage and view a multi-camera system

Rather, it communicates via a proprietary wireless link to the Blink Sync module, which connects to your Wi-Fi. That way, the Blink XT camera can run on battery power; the Sync module needs to be plugged into an outlet. (Image credit: Blink) Blink says that the XT2, which runs on two AA batteries, can last up to two years without replacement batteries. This estimate assumes that you use the camera for roughly 900 minutes of video events, including Live View, motion-activated recording and two-way talk. The more the camera records video, and the more you use two-way talk and live video, the less uptime the camera will have. Fortunately, the Blink XT2 kit comes with both the camera and the sync module; extra cameras cost $89 each. MORE:  Best Home Security Systems Setup takes about ...
