Blink Battery Powered Cameras

Recommended Posts

Would there be a way to integrate these cameras? I don’t need anything too elaborate. I’m trying to avoid a bunch of CAT drops and want to use them at my entrances to send video and fire events. I inherited them at one of my warehouses (no real automation) just to see who is at a particular dock or door. (I have Arlo at another building). In terms of Blink, they are inexpensive nifty little devices. The batteries last 2 years under normal conditions and they can be used outdoors.

They do work with IFTTT so you could do some very basic integration with that based off of motion triggers (obviously no video feed into C4 though).

Battery Powered cameras are not always on, so you are destined not to get all the required footage for real security purposes.
