Best for Multi-Camera Needs

The Blink is a small relatively discreet Wi-Fi camera square and relatively flat. Its particularity lies in the fact of being Wi-Fi, but especially of not having any cable for its connection. Indeed such as an adhesive hook or a stick, the "Blink" is powered by a battery which makes it autonomous and therefore you will not need to drill or let hang a wire to plug it. The "Blink" allows you to record what happens in the house or switch to Live View mode. The connection is made through your Wi-Fi network. The company announces a battery life of one year.
