Overview
Blink Wired Doorbell — doorbell camera using existing doorbell wiring for power (transformer requirements apply).
Blink cameras and doorbells deliver motion alerts, Live View, and optional clip recording through the Blink app. Most models require a Sync Module 2 or XR on the same account. Clip storage may use cloud subscription, local hub storage, or both depending on settings.

Before You Service or Replace One
- Exact SKU on label — Outdoor 4 vs 2K+ vs legacy mount patterns differ.
- Sync Module online in app before blaming camera hardware.
- Battery type — lithium AA where specified; extension packs are model-specific.
- Subscription — cloud clip history requires active Blink plan where offered.
- Wi-Fi at mount — not just at router location.
