They work great until the don't.

I have three of these and they all stopped working a little over a year of installing them. They work great until the don't. After they quit working I just put batteries back into the cameras and they have lasted for over 8 months with no issues. I got these to keep from having to climb a ladder and change the batteries, but the batteries seem to last longer then the solar panels.

Pros
  • EASY INSTALLATION - Installing our solar panel is as easy as 1-2-3. Simply mount the panel outside your house and connect the weatherproof micro USB cable to your camera.
Cons
  • The product may not be suitable for outdoor use in all regions

Solar Panel Blink good for me

The camera does not pick up motion like it does on a normal battery. I don't think the panel provides enough power or is slow to picking up motion even when the sensitivity is turned completely up for the cameras. The panels are in the sun all day long so shouldn't be an issue with positioning. I can walk in the driveway and motion isn't picked up when using the solar. When I unplug and use just the battery the camera detects motion. Really wanted these to work to reduce the number of batteries

Pros
  • Panel worked well
Cons
  • The solar panels may not work well in areas with high humidity

Easy to install for my opinion

This product was a breeze to install and it is solidly built. Since I run my exterior cameras in the Armed-motion mode all of the time, the battery life is shortened, so these panels will replace those batteries and are a good find. Even though we had some overcast skies the units powered my cameras all night.

Pros
  • 4895230302439
Cons
  • The solar panels may make noise in high winds

They don’t work: my feedback

They don’t hold up on the Florida sun, don’t waste the money. All you will get is camera offline all the time. That's my feedback.

Pros
  • 2 Lithium Ion batteries required. (included)
Cons
  • The internal batteries may not hold a charge for very long

Both failed in less than 1 year

They worked when they were working but both panels failed after a few months. Can't say I recommend if that is the expected life span of these.

Pros
  • good product
Cons
  • The solar panels may not fit properly with certain camera models

Bad warranty good for me

Only lasted for 7 months. Had two hooked up to blink outdoor cameras. Live view stopped working. Disconnected solar panels inserted fresh batteries into cameras and both are now working. Should have checked before ordering cause support tells me there is only a 3 month warranty. Nothing they will do. You would think a product like this would have more than a 3 month warranty. Guess I must have got 2-lemons. Follow up to my review Wasserstein did me right and sent two new panels. Will install…

Pros
  • Wasserstein
Cons
  • The solar panels may be too heavy to mount on some surfaces

Great value for my opinion

Just installed the solar panels and they worked immediately. I thought that I might have to wait for the panels to charge up but that was not the case. I highly recommend these panels for the blink cameras.

Pros
  • Battery life not worth five stars.
Cons
  • The solar panels may not provide enough power for the camera

Do not buy.: my feedback

So at first, the solar panels worked great. Easy to install. Easy to connect. A few months later, neither camera will work while connected to the panels. One camera still works with batteries, the other will no longer function with batteries. Completely dead. Not sure what happened but all the other cameras that we had and didn’t switch to solar panels are still working. The panels had plenty of sun, so there really is no reason for them not to work. Do not buy.

Pros
  • I love solar things
Cons
  • The installation process may require special tools

1 of the 2 is dying at 9 months old.

One of the battery / panels still works fine. But after 9 months, the other one is overheating and causing the Blink Camera to go offline. Real pain in the butt to reset because it’s mounted on the roof.

Pros
  • Easy to install. Perfect size and cord long enough if you need it. Work straight right out of the box.
Cons
  • The solar panels may be too expensive for some buyers

Plug in the outlet or buy batteries.

Don't waste your time with this. it won't work. I live in south florida where there is plenty of sun light and this equipment won't work at all. I tested for theee days and the result was disappointing.

Pros
  • This saved me time and money recommend to buy
Cons
  • The product may not come with clear instructions

Wow. This is SO easy!

Unbelievable that I didn't know about this solar panel solution to my BLINK XT2 cameras before! After going through tons of batteries in a short time, because I was monitoring my feral cats feeding station & therefore a of lot motion capture alerts would drain my batteries quick, I was fascinated that these provide alternative solution to using batteries. I ordered quickly and received with in few days and set was super easy and BAM! No more batteries, no more interruptions to video alerts &…

Pros
  • Great product works great. Plug and play
Cons
  • The solar panels may be prone to theft
