Blink Video Doorbell + Sync Module 2 + Blink Mini 2 | Two-Way audio, HD video, Long-Lasting Battery Life, Motion Detection, Chime App Alerts, Works With Alexa (Black)

I bought this as I had the standard sync module for my doorbell which meant I needed to subscribe. I wanted to be able to have the ability to save clips. It has a shorter wire and its a micro usb wire so couldn't just swap it out with the other sync module. Was easy to set up and stick a usb drive into. Can access my clips on the app and delete them as needed. remember to swap the storage in the app to local storage and format the usb drive and its as simple as that.

Great module to use as local storage rather than paying for cloud storage. Works well. Easy to use. Great design. Great value for money.

Bought for a Blink doorbell system rather than going on to subscription. Easy set up, and works well. Clips are a little slower to download, but not enough to be a problem. Recommended

I got the sync module 2 after having my blink doorbell and blink mini for over a year. Previously had the blink subscription but didn’t particularly want to pay for another year, so purchased this instead as a money saving option. It was super easy to set up, and is fairly neat and compact in size. If you want the app to save clips, you need to plug a USB into the module. Doesn’t need to be a fancy or special USB, if you have an old one hiding in a drawer somewhere, that’ll do. The module only needs power which can be via plug socket or USB cable (both included in the box) and can be put anywhere in the home as long as it’s got wifi connection. I can now do live view on the doorbell which I couldn’t do before on the blink subscription as my doorbell runs on battery not mains. So that’s a nice bonus. Hilariously, blink/amazon have added a delay from you clicking on a clip in the app to watch to when it loads, claiming it takes longer to load from USB which is honestly ridiculous in this day and age - I imagine they’ve done this to try and get you to use the cloud annual subscription instead which is very naughty of them. I’m not bothered about the clip loading delay but can see how it might frustrate people, especially if you’ve gone from cloud storage (via the subscription) to local storage (via the module). My only negative is that the module has annoyingly bright blue and green lights on them which is so unnecessary. If you set it up in a room where someone with light sensitivity sleeps, you may want to keep it upside down or get some of those stickers that block the lights.

Works as expected. Easy to wire. Syncs recordings timely. Speed is dependant on the usb used. Max capacity is 256GB(strictly). Tested external hard drives with capacity up to 1TB but none worked. Wanted to have the speed of a usb-c device but unfortunately can't. Wish support is enabled for higher capacity devices. I used a usb-c to usb-a cable to connect an external NVMe enclosure with 1TB drive for the test. tried with 512GB as well but nope. Other than that it works well and reliably so far for offline storage if one doesn't want a subscription for your motion recordings. Solid purchase.
