We’re big fans of Arlo home security cameras here on the BGR Deals team, but times they are a-changin. Arlo still offers a terrific user experience and great features, but they’re wildly expensive even on sale and there are much less expensive options these days. On top of that, Arlo cameras only last 2 or 3 months per charge, which means having to go around and refuel them all as many as six times each year! Blink is a newer rival to Arlo’s home cameras, and it’s now owned by Amazon which means pricing is obviously going to undercut Arlo by a big margin on a normal day. On Black Friday, of course, those prices are going to dive even lower. Amazon is running killer deals on Blink Indoor Home Security Camera Systems as well as Blink XT Home Security Camera Systems, which are weatherproof so they can be mounted anywhere. Both models offer insane 2-year battery life, so grab them now on sale while you can.
