If you have an Arlo wireless security system in and around your home, you can rest assured that you have one of the best systems money can buy. Arlo cameras are great! If you don’t already have a system and you’re looking for something new though, there’s another home camera line you should check out. The Blink XT Home Security Camera System is very similar to Arlo and can do pretty much everything Arlo cameras can do, but there’s one main difference. While Arlo cameras have to be recharged every 2-3 months, a Blink XT camera will last for about 2 years!
