I mean Sonoff.

now only 6 %?
not 20 plus 6?
actually for 60 usd. why u so worry about tax
it's not even more than rm.500

Yes exactly that, which can mess with your scene like if you want to turn on all lights/fan in the living room at the same time and you've already got the lights on.
Obviously the same command will turn off the lights off instead, which is I'm leaning towards wifi switches now.

Just bought one, we'll see how it goes
Wanted to get another one that's a used unit for echo dot (15usd cheaper) but someone else beat me to it by just a few seconds

I just placed order for echo dot at BHphoto. Where u saw the used echo dot? local website?
Echo dot cant detect voice control from another room separated by door right? I saw people mention about voice remote that looks like remote control with mic. But it is handheld & price is almost same as Echo dot. haha

still can reach but u may need to shout a bit
sometimes both my echo will detect once hear the key word

my Teptron's Move motorized blind review -

I ordered these from a company called Teptron in Sweden. This is initially a kickstarter project. You can now buy them at their own website. Delivery can take as long as 6 to 10 weeks. They seem to be manufacturing them by hand.

What it does is add a motor to your existing blinds. Basically any kind of blinds that is control by some sort of cord can work. If your curtains is control by a cord pulley, you can add this motor to it as well..Each unit cost 59 Euros.

I only have roller blinds for my apartment so this thing will work on all of them but I only ordered 3 for my living room. Just for testing and also I dont really open and close my other roller blinds for my rooms that much, it is always closed. In my living room, I have three roller blinds side by side for "one" window so I need 3 Moves




The whole package is pretty small. Each unit consist of a solar panel, the Move unit itself, some hardware for different types of blinds and thats pretty much it. The red thing is the double sided tape for you to attach the unit to wherever you gonna mount it. It also comes with screws incase double sided tape dont work for you



It uses 4 AAA size rechargeable batteries (not included so I went bought some from IKEA). The battery door completely comes out and is held in place by just two small tabs that seems easily breakable. So far the batteries seems to keep its charge pretty well. The solar panel must be charging it and I must say that it is working well even when I dont get any direct sunlight. You can also recharge the battery using a power bank. Or you could connect a USB charger to it.



You can see the spindle from the motor here. You are supposed to attached on the different wheel spool for different types of blinds here

Installation is fairly simple. You stick the double sided tape to the unit and then to the wall or window frame. At first I thought the tape wont hold but its in pretty solid.
My roller blind uses a beaded cord and somehow the wheel spool for the beaded cord dont work very well. The cord seems to be slipping from the wheel. I fixed this by making sure the wheel and beaded cord is tight with good tension. Teptron knows about this problem and they will send me an improved metal version of the wheel soon.


There are three manual buttons on the Move unit. Up, Down and Stop. The Move unit is control by Bluetooth using an app. The app at the moment has absolutely no other functions but Up or Down. Btw they also have a Z-Wave version.

PRO- Fairly cheap and affordable. Easy to install.
CONS -
1. If you got a few panels of blinds side by side, there is no single button to control all of them at once on the app
2. If you got a few panels of blinds side by side, trying to align them to go up and down in unison is very difficult. You need to play around with the speed setting.
3. App is pretty much barebones for now with no automation. No grouping of units to be control all at once.
4. Bluetooth takes time to connect

wah, nice. Cheap, simple and creative.

Got remote control type? beside using the HP. If 2in1 control is perfect.

For your bead type you need the special design type of pulley. I don't no how to descript the type. But I saw it before.

No remote control. Need smartphone punya Bluetooth
They should come out with a Bluetooth remote

boleh pakai alexa?

walau, after put in the address, + shipping cost already cost RM389.

Looking at aliexpress now.

For what? The Move got free shipping if you buy 2 units

Move cannot as it uses Bluetooth only
The Z-Wave version named Movez, I think can use Alexa

Didn't know 2pcs got free shipping.

I key in 1unit and check the shipping cost. Killing me.
