I Love my smartwing blinds I dont the thread ones just the bluetooth I have had 12 of them for 6 months now and they work great even with bluetooth! I love the fabric options too!
Good review just discovered these. What colour did you get? Also in the long term any issues with such a long blind? I will need a few long ones as well,.
@Stephen . This is awesome. I would love to convert my window blinds to Homekit. However for each small window it costs $474 which is crazy expensive. Are there any DIY affordable Homekit options ?
That is exactly if you stop and think all about how important it is for you to say open or close is it worth 300 more for it. I have about 18 windows i cant pay thousands so i think regular blinds are for me.
You can group them in the HomeKit app and then raise or lower them together! For partial opening, you would need to create a HomeKit scene with both blinds and adjust each accordingly. Or you can ask Siri to "open the X room blinds to 50%" and it will do both to that percentage automatically!
How do you charge with power bank? I see the port on the rod. Do you connect usbc and leave it in the air? Will the cable stay holding the weight of power bank that will be in air?
Smart Wings really missed a great opportunity for some great commercials here w/Paul Rudd & Sean William Scott...though it's not "sturdy wings", it is close enough to where they could have had some real fun with it...i do understand the expense associated with Rudd, and Jane Lynch is no slouch herself, but it would've possibly been subsidized by partners as well 🎉😂 😊 Hey, I'm always about a party🕺........and that bass....🤷♂️
It's so nice to see more affordable options for custom shades and such high-quality ones at that. Thread for the win!
Absolutely!
Thanks. Going to pick a few up.
Oh hi!
I'm sold! Since I bought my 77" LG OLED TV, I use blackout paper shades. Not only will this be a cooler solution, but literally a smarter one. Thanks!
That's a nice TV! I'm looking into the OLEDs...
Can blinds be operated manually if motor or something else go bad?
This is all I need to know! 😂🎉 Thx brother! SD
Happy to help!

Good to know they have great longevity too!
nice vid! i wish more homekit products used thread
Same! But there are more coming out all the time!
Great video. Used Ryse / Axis adapters to convert bead blinds into being Zigbee + homeKit enabled and it's been nightmare.
Thanks, and yeah I’ve tried homebridge for a number of devices but always flakes out.
Can you set specific middle positions (percentage) for automations other than full open and full closed?
Absolutely!
Nice video. I may have missed it but can you adjust these manually? ie without using the app, siri, or remote?
Thanks! Not that I’m aware of. But the remote is RF based so would work without internet

Still using these and they're great! After trying other brand models I recommend these the most. I got the midnight grey.
Thank you, that what i looking for.
Glad I could help!
Does it require any hubs? Like an HomePod?
You do need at least one homePod (mini or large) or an Apple TV to act as a hub

These Zemismart retrofit shades may work! ruclips.net/video/BK49rbt_uac/видео.htmlsi=k-pVBmISdBZAtN5h

can you sync multiple blinds together to open and close them together partially or full?
You can group them in the HomeKit app and then raise or lower them together! For partial opening, you would need to create a HomeKit scene with both blinds and adjust each accordingly. Or you can ask Siri to "open the X room blinds to 50%" and it will do both to that percentage automatically!

I place the power bank on a nearby shelf or get a long enough cord it rests on the window. Power bank charges via usb-c cable and power brick.
