Let me start by saying these mounts solved a problem I didn’t even know I had with my Blink Outdoor 4 cameras. The stock mounts that came with the cameras felt limiting—like trying to take a group photo with your arms glued to your sides. These aftermarket mounts? Total game-changer.
The 360° swivel is where these really shine. I needed one camera to peer around a corner at my driveway (hello, package thieves), and another to angle downward at my side gate. The knurled steel ball joint holds position surprisingly well once tightened—though fair warning, you’ll need pliers for that final ‘this ain’t moving’ twist. No cracks on mine despite some aggressive tightening.
Installation was stupid easy. Five minutes per camera max, and that includes the time spent admiring my handiwork. The included sync module mount is a nice bonus—finally stopped my module from dangling like a sad Christmas ornament near the router.
Now about weatherproofing: Don’t expect a sealed vault. There are gaps, but since Blink cameras are already weather-resistant, these act more like stylish rain hats than scuba gear. After three thunderstorms, zero issues with water interference on the lenses.
The only nitpick? The base plates feel thinner than I’d like. Not an issue yet, but I’m keeping an eye on them for sun damage over time. For the price though—especially compared to Blink’s official mounts—this 5-pack delivers serious value if you need mounting flexibility beyond ‘point straight ahead.’
