About this deal
Noisy. If it could do what it does 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.
With the voice assistant, you open or close each electric blind to the desired position. You no longer need to use chains and cords with electric blinds.In fact, it all depends on which roller shutter motor installation you decide on. There are many types of devices on the market that allow you to work comfortably. Sitting on the sofa, you can adjust the fabric of the roller shutter, which automatically rises and closes, with just an app on your phone. Some motors are simpler, others are more difficult to install. Our Smart Electric WiFi Blind Motors are compatible with a wide range of blind types. Please see our compatibility image for further details. Single channel remote control handset in white with grey trim. Ideal for controlling an individual powered blind.
I am delighted with my new electric blinds. Leonard the fitter was pleasant, helpful and hard working he made sure everything was left neat and tidy after fitting the blinds. I would highly recommend Hillarys Blinds."
In terms of noise levels, it’s almost on a par with the Aqara E1, with just 3-4dB between them which is nothing you would be able to discern. At around 45dB on average, the motor is quiet enough to really be of no bother, and unless you were a light sleep sleeper, I dare say you could sleep through the noise of the blinds opening or closing.

This arrived yesterday and it works brilliantly. The motor unit is quite powerful. These curtains are heavy – velvet and lined 4m wide by 3m high but the device seems to move them fine. Connecting it to the chord, fitting to the wall, connecting to Wi-Fi and to the Smart Life app all went exactly as the instructions suggested. The Smart Life app has been updated a bit since the instructions were written but it was still straightforward. Setting up the open and close limits worked fine. And so now I have buttons on my iphone and Siri voice Commands set up to open and close – and also to partially open (you can choose a Percentage open). I just hope it don’t wear it out now. Can’t resist playing with it. Can’t imagine what the neighbours must be thinking.

Includes wall mount – can be set aside in an easy to find spot, while remaining mobile so you can control from anywhere.
