    Re: Automated Blinds?

    I would prefer a motor that can fit in the headrail of the blind.  There are many options for tilt or raise/tilt, the blind would be sent to a shop where the headrail may have to be changed to fit either a tubular motor and take-up reels or a tilt motor.  Then the Z-Wave option would include using a Z-Wave enabled controller from ESI or RS Scene Automation for what would most likely be a low voltage motor.  I hope this helps, but I would advise against doing the add-a-motor unless cost is a big factor, it makes more sense to me to have everything contained in the headrail.

     Hi,

    ok, thanks for the info.  I checked out both of the companies you mentioned and I need to think about my options some more.
