A: The Blink Mini camera is an indoor only camera. It will not survive outdoors and is strictly hardwired- there is nowhere to insert batteries in the device as it must be plugged into an outlet to work. The newer Blink Mini 2 Camera is in fact weather-resistant, and is still hardwired so must always be plugged in.

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Blink Mini 1080p Security Camera. Yes, a Blink Mini 1080p Security Camera can act as a chime for the Blink Doorbell. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

A: Hello Rashell, thank you for your question. Yes, a Blink Mini can serve as a chime for a Blink Video Doorbell, allowing it to play the doorbell sound if you don't have a wired chime or a Blink doorbell chime accessory. To set it up, ensure both devices are in the same Blink system and then select the Mini from the doorbell's device settings to act as the chime. You can then adjust the chime volume specifically for the Mini camera within the doorbell's audio settings. I hope that helps, have a great day!

A: Hello Stacy, thank you for your question. A Blink Mini records motion-triggered video clips up to 60 seconds long, though it's a motion-based system, not for continuous recording. You can manually extend a Live View session to five minutes without a subscription, or up to 90 minutes with a Blink Subscription Plan, but this isn't the same as continuous motion recording. I hope that helps, have a great day!

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about the Blink Mini 1080p Security Camera The Blink Mini is not designed for continuous, 24/7 recording. It is a motion-activated camera that records short clips. The length of these recordings depends on your settings and whether you have a Blink subscription plan.

A: You may absolutely change Wi-Fi networks in-app whenever you'd like, however the Blink system only works with high speed password-secured 2.4GHz networks that cannot be satellite or hot spots. They are not compatible with hotel Wi-Fi networks. https://support.blinkforhome.com/en_US/wi-fi-or-network-issues/understanding-wifi-network-requirements

A: Hy tylrm! While you can easily remove and re-setup the Blink Mini on a new WiFi, hotel WiFi might block the Blink Mini from connecting properly or sending data. Your best bet would be to travel with a WiFi hotspot that you can leave behind and have the Blink Mini connected to. I hope that helps, have a great rest of your day!

A: Hi Sunday! The Blink Mini only supports 2.4Ghz WiFi connections, but that shouldn't be a problem as your router almost certainly supports both! 2.4Ghz provides more than enough bandwidth to view the 1080p feed from the Blink Mini, and features better penetration through walls and obstacles so you'll have an easier time finding a good place to install it. If you need additional range, you can even consider a Blink Sync Module 2 which will allow you to connect the Blink Mini directly to it. I hope that helps, have a great rest of your day!

A: Hi Sunday, thanks for reaching out about Blink Mini 1080p Security Camera No, the Blink Mini 1080p Security Camera does not support 5G WiFi connections. It requires a 2.4 GHz WiFi network to operate. The camera is designed to use the 2.4 GHz band for internet connectivity, which is common for home networks and often has a wider range than 5 GHz.
