Generally good video and help me out with replacing my Kohler part. A couple of notes to anyone having this issue. 1) You should email Kohler, they will help you get the right part or troubleshoot your problem, and your Karbon Faucet might be under warranty. This was the case for me, and they just sent me the part. 2) Make sure no sediment goes down the tube that feeds the faucet. The entry for it is very small and if it gets clogged, mine did, no water will come out the faucet even if the part is installed right. How I fixed it was once I figured out what was wrong, I got under the sink, disconnected the hose that runs to the faucet part. Checked to see if it was block, it was, then used the Allen Wrench to puncher a hole in the sediment and wiggled it around until I felt water back flow from the hose onto my hand. Also, one other note, for a new DIYer a 1 1/8 ratchet head is not something comes in you standard ratchet set. It is larger than the lug-nut on a car tire. I happen to have a plumbers ratchet set I bought at Home Depot, which has all of the sizes for taking off the valves in a shower. So that had a 1 3/16 that worked for me, but otherwise I would have to gone to the hardware store.

Yeah, but it's too bad that if you upgrade your router or have some reason to reinstall a camera that was working before, that it is not possible to get hooked up. One issue is that when app cannot find your 2.4 ghz network and it tells you to join BLINK-6343 or whatever that is, even if that network shows up, it is not a network that has a connection, I have deleted the module, powered off and on router all devices even deleted account. It does not matter, cannot reinstall camera to network.

Been on the phone with them dozens of times in the last few weeks. Sleek and modern and customizable but really wish they were made more simple. Wish we had put old reliable boring fixtures in instead.

Thanks for the review and information, first, My concern is mounting the unit outdoors, it looks like someone can just reach up and snatch it off the mount with no tools. I am going to look at the XT units with the infrared vs the led it just seems better idea. The video quality when you get close seems a bit distorted compared to others. I am looking at the Arlo Pro 2 vs the Blink xt... and the merits of both... sometimes paying a little more is worth the cost overall. One comment you did not make is the distance from the base unit? I have all my modem, router and connections in one central place in our home... I've not seen any real data on how far I can really get when placing the cameras... I'd want to place one in our Breeze way, and One on the front porch as well as one outside pointing to our barn area if you know of any more sturdy outdoor mounts for the camera I'd appreciate hearing that and some information on distance from base. What happens if I am further away does the camera just not get picked up? Finally, is the max recording time the same weather you have one or 5 cameras, that makes a bit difference in a home security system.

Communication from the system is dependent upon internet access - that being said, I really don't know if it will still record if there is no internet access. I suspect not, since video is stored in the cloud somewhere for access via your smart device. As for recording - it is triggered by motion (per the settings in the app). If you don't have motion detection set, it will not record unless you manually ask it to.

Very good review, thank you. I never heard of this product until a neighborhood watch issue came up and found many of my neighbors were using this system. If you need infrared, why don't you use the external cameras indoors? Do you know how many cameras the one module will support and can it support more than 1 cell phone. Three adults live in a house with young children, and it would be a good thing if more than one phone could access the system. We all use the same wifi feeder, so that would not be a problem. This would be a great help on keeping track of elder parents by their adult children, it would also be great if you had a small ranch and needed to keep track of the animals in the barn or other place. There are a lot of uses for it, wow

10 cameras can be used on 1 sync module and I'm not sure how many devices. Me and my wife both have the app on our phones and can both access the cameras. I would assume more could as well. I really like this system. I picked up a 4 camera system for 275 bucks and think it was well worth the money. Longer battery life would be better but only 1 of the 4 are using batteries. The other 3 are in areas where directly behind the wall is an outlet so I picked up some 15 foot usb cables and power supply, drilled a small hole from outside into the garage and ran the cable. Wires kinda suck but I think it's the better way to go if you have a plug that you can use without having tacky wires visable

Sure, that would be easy enough. Just setup the camera with a motion alert and you will get notified on your phone when the camera detects any motion... so if a cat walks through your driveway for example, you will get that too.

They don't connect directly via Bluetooth. Rather, the cameras talk to the system hub, which is in turn connected to your home wifi network. The cameras are "online," allowing for your phone to connect to them remotely (via the Blink app).

Actually, no, blink does not say that you will get up to two years of life off of a pair of AA batteries. If you read the fine print and look at what you took out of the box, those are AA *LITHIUM* batteries, which are not the same as regular AA batteries. Regular batteries at best will get you a couple of months use in a low active area. AA lithium batteries such as those that are included, will get you up to 2 years. AA lithium batteries from Energizer can be bought on Amazon or in some Sam's Club stores among other places.

Very important to make sure that you use the correct batteries when you do replace them. Do NOT just put in alkaline batteries or you can void your warranty plus really damage your cameras... I am 59 years old and very intelligent or so I thought about batteries until I purchased these cameras I always bought alkaline batteries thinking well they cost more and last longer. I was wrong so please pay attention and buy the exact type of battery that the instructions tell you to use or you may have a few issues. Great video but on QVC shopping channel they kept making it Crystal Clear about the types of batteries that can be so so easily confused. I just want everybody to be aware of the right type if batteries so you are not disappointed. I just received my cameras from QVC today haven't even opened the box yet but most of the reviews are positive and running on 2 AA batteries and no wiring sounds awesome to me. I also bought the MR BEAMS battery powered floodlights that you can mount even on a tree and LOVE them and the ratings are amazing as well... Sad that we now have to consider these cameras as must have items instead of a choice but that is our new reality I am sorry to say... I never ever write any comments so thank you for taking the time to read this... 😊

Hello! This is just what I needed to figure out this exact repair. The valve kit I received from Kohler for the Karbon faucet handle thought didn't have the service kit instructions. Do you happen to have an electronic copy you could post or a link to where I might find it? I can also reach out to Kohler, but from a timing standpoint, it takes them several days to respond. Thanks again for posting this video - regardless of the instructions, I think I may be able to repair it myself!

Everything works except: There are no thumbnail pictures, only video is operational.

One and a half hours on the phone with helpful tech support and not resolved yet. Proceed with caution!
