The last time I asked, they wanted a crazy price. They say each panel can cost a couple of thousand ringgit.
i myself interested in the solar powered ones - http://www.curtainblinds.com.my/product/so...-blinds-system/

I see in china got sell all these for DIY etc and they are cheap compare to what they are asking for here

please share what you know later on

That 1 newcomer is it. I think you can install better than him. tongue.gif

All my whatever blind is install by myself. With an impact drill, level gauge, measurement tape and screw driver, the job is easy.

Some blind like double space height have difficult to use hand. There are too tall and heavy.

And when using hand, your force will be pulling down while slide with such height blind. Later on whole blind will be fall down and spoil the track.

That is when motorize come in handy.

guys, I finally found a solution to motorizing my existing roller blinds. DIY by retrofitting it with a tubular motor. Each motor cost US$65.00 (about Rm260) which includes shipping
It has a buildin rechargeable battery so no need to run wires all over. These are smart motors - you can schedule them, control them over the Net, automations, etc...the works. Very quiet operation.

please take a look -

Those blind engines last time damn 7 useless. No way to get online. You can set schedule but doesn't work. I set open at 7am, the fella will open at a totally different time like many hours later. Must use phone to open and close and most of the time the motor cannot do the job as the bead chain keep skipping. And the speed different from each other. You see these all consistent speed so all three panels rise or close at the same time

I want to throw those already

Yes these are just tubular motors insert into the aluminum tube

Too bad I use vertical blind.

Thought to use roller blind. But doesn't give much privacy.

Zigbee version (needs a Tuya Zigbee hub as well) - https://www.zemismart.com/products/zemismar...le-home-control

Wifi version - https://www.zemismart.com/products/zemismar...ife-app-control

if you intend to do a few blinds, then get the Zigbee version. The hub only cost like 50-60 ringgit

These are 38mm tubular motors that fits the aluminum tube size of 40mm (outside diameter) or 38mm (inside diameter)
