Blink Outdoor 2K+
Two-year AA battery life; clips need a Blink plan or a Sync Module with storage.
The Blink Outdoor 2K+ needs a paid Blink plan to save any video; the cheapest one that records costs $3.99 a month. It lists at $99.99, so three years costs about $244. Power: rechargeable battery. In our planner it covers about 40 ft by day and 30 ft at night across 115°.
