Amazon has slashed the price of a popular wireless doorbell ahead of it’s Spring Deal Days sale. The huge sale will give shoppers the opportunity to snap up thousands of bargains this month.

The Amazon Spring Deal Days sale will launch on Tuesday, March 25, and will run until Monday, March 31. Ahead of this, Amazon has dropped the price of the Blink Outdoor Wireless HD smart security camera to £30.49, down from £89.99.

The Blink Outdoor is a wire-free battery-powered HD security camera that “helps you monitor your home day or night with infrared night vision.” According to Amazon, the product has a long-lasting battery life and runs for up to two years on two AA lithium batteries (included).

The product description adds: “Blink Outdoor is built to withstand the elements to help you protect your home indoors or out, come rain or shine. Get motion detection alerts on your phone with the option to customise motion zones in the Blink Home Monitor app so you’re only alerted when you need to be.

“Answer your door, no matter where you are, from your smartphone with 1080p HD day and infrared night video, and two-way audio. Experience long-lasting battery life, customised alerts, privacy settings and more.”

The Blink Outdoor has an overall rating of 4.2 stars online, having racked up plenty of rave reviews. Among them, one person said: “Reliable, easy-to-install security with amazing battery life! I’ve been using the Blink Outdoor Wireless HD Smart Security Camera for a few months now, and I’m incredibly impressed with its performance.

“Right out of the box, it was simple to set up—literally plug-and-play. The wireless design meant I didn’t have to deal with complicated wiring, and it took me just minutes to mount the camera in my desired location.”

A second wrote: “Wow this must have been the easiest security camera setup ever. Within 5 mins it was on up and running and everything working very very easy to do.”

A third impressed shopper added: “Predictably excellent. This is the fourth Blink camera I have bought and installed. Always quick delivery and super easy to set up. Highly recommend.”

However, not everyone was quite so happy with the doorbell. One person said: “We’re really disappointed with our two sets of blink cameras. After three years the module has stopped working and we are unable to reconnect wither of them. I’ve been trying for over four months.

“Customer services just keep sending out the same email. I’ve done everything possibly to try and reset the system. They are great when working but once they aren’t, that seems to be it and Customer services are useless!”

Another added: “Two of my cameras have developed fogged up lenses on the inside due to water ingress. This has stopped one working completely and the other intermittently.”

Ahead of the Amazon Spring Deal Days sale, the retailer has teased that the spring sale will bring “epic discounts” on favourite brands such as Shark, Ninja Philips, Adidas and loads more. Unlike Amazon’s famous Prime Day sale which usually takes place in July, shoppers do not need to have an Amazon Prime subscription in order to access the spring sale deals.

However, it may be worth considering signing up for Prime in time for the sale anyway – especially because new members can get a 30-day free trial with the option to cancel any time.

Alternatively, Amazon also stocks the Tapo TD21 Battery Video Doorbell, which has dropped from £69.99 to £44.99. Very also stocks the Ring Video Doorbell (3rd Gen) with Chime on sale for £104.99, down from £119.99.
