Product Information

Our motors use very standard tubing available at any metal provider or welding shop. However, it is not a problem to reduce the diameter of the drive adapter (file or grinder) to fit some other close size. It is also not a problem to build up the diameter with tape. For more info on motor insertion, see our article about how to insert tubular motors into tubing. Noisy. If it could do what it doesn’t without making a lot of noise, that’d be grand. No apple home kit integration, these are the two reasons I am not rating this product 5/5. Still good enough The limited smart home integration is my biggest issue here, as well as not supporting all cord types. While most blinds will use a beaded chain, things like tilt blinds are probably off the table for most people. My Recommendations

In the picture above, the crown adapter has been partially slid onto the motor, but not right to the end (left side) where it fits into one end of the tube. You must slide this part on, before you attach the drive adapter to the drive shaft with the provided washer and C clip (there is a retention channel machined into the drive shaft that accepts the clip using finger pressure). Each model is available with and without built-in remote control. Units without remote control are typically used in situations where there is already a home automation system in place (see our home automation controllers for more info about this). Smart phone control is provided by the Tuya cloud, which offers integration with Alexa and Google Assistant, as well as IFTTT. To use this you’ll need to install the provided USB Wifi adapter. Alternatively you can use the provided wall remote right out of the box, or the on device manual controls which provide a simple up/down/stop system. In many cases the answer is Yes. There are a wide variety of retrofit DIY products on the market to convert just about any type of blind to be motorized and linked to a smart home for automation. In this article we cover options for roller blinds, tilt blinds, vertical blinds, and many others. You can of course opt to build your own solution. This can be cheaper, but requires a bevy of skills including 3D printing, electronics, and programming to some extent.

Very easy to install, setup on vertical blinds where you can’t reach the cord, now the blinds open automatically when the sun rises Blind Size: Battery blind powered motors only have the torque to automate blinds at the small/medium end of the spectrum. On larger blinds above 4-5sqm, we recommend using 240v AC motors. See further info below on size restrictions. Perfect and initially brought this. I had a few issues but Ajax Team helped me.
