Fintie Silicone Skin for Blink XT2/XT Camera - [3 Pack] Premium Silicone UV Weather Resistant Protective Case Cover for Blink XT2 & XT Home Security Indoor Outdoor Camera - Black

These are highly rated and were easy to put on; however, I only saw one negative review that these affect the IR and light which I learned after the first night with the silicone covers on. One camera was brand new and the other two are fairly new and the IR worked great the second night after I removed these silicone covers.

Its the exact got and gives added protection for the blink

Nice product time will tell

As advertised fast ship

Installing was a breeze. The night vision only seems to work. When I review recorded sessions.

Blink security camera - easy to install

I bought these protective covers to use on my new Blink Outdoor cameras (Im referring to the new 9/2020 release cams that succeeded the XT series) after reading some Q&A here saying that they would fit them. Yes they do FIT the new cams, but because Blink re-arranged the location of everything on the front of the new 9/2020 release cameras versus where it all was on the older XT series cams, this product now covers up the blue operation light and also covers the infrared light (see attached photos), so at night you get no IR illumination, pitch dark images. This is definitely not the fault of the product, they made no claim for this item to be compatible with them. I just assumed since people said they would FIT, that they would work just fine. Not the case. You get no IR illumination at night while using these on the cams. Learned the hard way, the difference between just fit, and fit AND functionality. Im in the process of returning them now. If you use the new release cams in areas where after dark they get enough ambient light from porch lights and/or floodlights where you dont need or require IR illumination at night, you may be able to still get away with using these covers. I put one of these covers on one of my driveway cams where I have three 150w equivalent LED motion floods lighting up the area and didnt even notice a difference in image quality after dark. It was when I installed one on the other side of the house where the cam is in pitch black dark and went to re-mount and re-aim it after installation that I was baffled why I couldnt see anything anymore, once I took the cover back off and it worked fine again with IR illumination, thats when I connected the dots and figured out what the problem was with the IR light being blocked with the cover installed. Its a shame because I like them and they seem to be a good item. Thats why I still gave them 4 stars here, theyre fine for what they are and its not their fault that they dont fit a product they never promised to fit. They are just for XT series cams, not the new 9/2020 release cams. Buy accordingly.

Quick easy

Work great and protect cameras

Too much money
