What did you end up going with for motorized blinds? I just bought a new house with a ton of great natural lighting and want to do this without paying an arm and a leg to get it done.
- LASR 3y agoI ended up getting WiFi blind chain motors from Aliexpress. This allows me to integrate with the existing blinds that have chains. Also, if I ever need to remove them and go back to manual, it's easy. There are a ton of these on there. Here is the listing I ordered from: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005461906004.html https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005461906004.html I spent ~$40 per blind. They go on sale sometimes.

- lsaferite 3y agoNot the PP, but I used these in my house: https://myiblinds.com/ https://myiblinds.com/ I used to use the similar ones from Somfy, but they were just too much of a pain in the end. The only thing I don't like about the iBlinds model is that there's no hard-wire communication option (I have 4 conductor wires with power and RS-422 at every window). I'm surprised there aren't any commonly available blinds that include an internal tilt motor with external manual fallback. Bonus point would be if it also included a lift motor.
