I rarely write a review but the great experience I had made me to write this review. I wanted to customize a shade for our front entrance to protect us from sun and heat. I needed it within specific dimensions to be fit in our front porch arch. I customized it myself and ordered it but b/c I was not sure with my selection I decided to cancel it. Jason from customer service messaged me to process the cancellation. I let him know my concerns. He patiently helped me and spent a lot of time with me on shade specifications. He provided me extention cords for free to be able to charge the shade on 19' height arch. Eventually I received my shade with great quality and I love it. Storagely recommend it to everyone looking for power shade.
Again specificial thanks to Jason for all his help.
These awesome shades replaced my plantation shutters. They let in so much more light when open. I use Lutron Caseta switches for lights, Apple Homekit (Home) running on Apple TV 4k 3rd Gen as hub. These shades connected right away, and I automated them to open and close at sunrise/sunset. They also respond to Siri "Close shades halfway" and other commands. My wife just uses the included remote, so they work however you want.
The iPad Mini 3 as a hub was not stable, I recommend Apple TV with the thread motors from Canisteo.
I chose the battery power, so I will just plug into the wall once every 6mo to recharge them, easy.
