If you've been meaning to add a security camera to your backyard, driveway, or any dimly lit spot around the house, the Blink Outdoor 4 Floodlight Camera might be the kind of no-fuss solution that works. It’s battery powered, which makes it a standout for renters or anyone who doesn’t want to mess with wiring or hiring an electrician. And at $64.99 on Amazon—down from $129.98—it’s currently sitting at its lowest price to date (according to price-trackers), making it easier to justify trying out a new piece of tech without overcommitting.

You’re looking at a completely wire-free setup with motion-triggered floodlights and a built-in camera—all powered by four D-cell batteries and two AAs (meaning it can go pretty much anywhere wifi reaches). That alone makes it worth considering if you’ve got areas around your home where power outlets just don’t exist, notes this ZDNet review. The floodlight automatically turns on when it detects motion, shining up to 700 lumens—plenty to light up dark driveways, side yards, or alleyways. The camera itself captures 1080p video with infrared night vision, and according to PCMag’s review, it handled detection pretty well, especially once fine-tuned in the app.

Keep in mind, Blink’s full set of features—like cloud storage, video history, and smart alerts—are tied to its subscription plans, which start at $3 per month for one device and $10 per month for unlimited devices. A free 30-day trial is included (so you can test out those features without pressure), but after that, you’ll need to pay if you want ongoing access to clips and advanced features. You can also store your clips locally by connecting a USB flash drive (sold separately) to the included Sync Module 2. If you’re looking for something with constant recording or a wired connection for uninterrupted power, this isn’t the pick for you. But if you’re piecing together an affordable, wire-free security setup, this one has the basics covered.
