Thousands of Amazon reviewers trust this best-selling home security camera system — and it's on sale today

If you’re in the market for a home security camera, now’s the time to score an Amazon best-seller at a discount.

Today's deal of the day is on the Blink XT home security camera system, which has motion detection and is weatherproof for outdoor usage. The two-camera bundle ​​is $140 (was $230) for a limited time, and the one-camera bundle is just $79.99 (was $129.99) and we have a feeling it won't last.

Over 5,506 folks have reviewed this security camera, and the average rating is 4 stars, lauding it for its battery life, small footprint and cost-effectiveness.

​Other standout features include HD (1080p) live video, infrared night vision and a two-year battery life (AA). Plus, the system is compatible with popular smart-home devices. Reviewers point out the ease of use, including setup, and the free cloud storage that comes with your purchase.

"​I was looking for a wireless system, and that didn't require a separate subscription for cloud storage. Blink is the one that fit the bill​," explains a 5-star reviewer. "​I like being able to control the camera through my phone to adjust sensitivity or temporarily shut it off for when someone is working within the camera's view, and you don't keep getting alerts​ ... The free cloud storage definitely makes this worth the price of this system. Once you have purchased the camera, you are done forking out money. I also love how easy it is to save and share videos to Google Drive or via text. This is a very user-friendly system, and I have recommended it to others simply for the cost factor alone​."
