Aqara Smart Curtain Motor E1 (Rod Version, 1 Pack), Requires AQARA Zigbee 3.0 HUB, Electric Curtain Driver, Works with HomeKit, Alexa, Google Assistant and IFTTT

Aqara Smart Curtain Motor E1, an electric curtain driver for remote control and home automation, is a compact and versatile solution that requires an Aqara Zigbee 3.0 Hub. This device supports integration with popular voice assistants such as HomeKit, Alexa, Google Assistant, and IFTTT, allowing you to effortlessly automate your existing curtains based on various triggers like weather, time, and lighting conditions.

The Aqara Curtain Motor E1 Rod Version is compatible with most popular rods with a uniform thickness, and it includes a grommet kit for a secure installation. It does not, however, support rods with different thicknesses at the ends, such as telescopic or extendable rods. Please refer to the product images and A+ content for detailed installation requirements.

One of the key features of the Aqara Curtain Motor E1 is its ease of installation. You can easily mount it onto your existing curtain track or rod without the need for any additional tools, ensuring that the device remains hidden behind the curtain and does not disrupt your decor. To ensure a sturdy connection, the Aqara Curtain Motor E1 should be within 400 inches of the Aqara Zigbee hub, and the hub should be within the same range from the Wi-Fi router. Additionally, the hub and the router must be on the same local area network (LAN).

The Aqara Curtain Motor E1 offers impressive battery life, with a rechargeable 6000 mAh battery that can last up to a year without needing to be charged. The calculated battery life refers to opening and closing a curtain on a 5 ft track (i.e., 2 curtain drivers per window) once a day, and it also depends on factors like friction, curtain weight, and type. The device can be charged using a Type-A to Type-C cable and a power bank or power supply (both sold separately).

One important note is that an Aqara Hub is required and sold separately. The Aqara Curtain Motor E1 is not compatible with hubs from other brands. Additionally, ensure that the firmware for the Aqara Hub and the Aqara Home App have been updated to the latest version.

In summary, the Aqara Smart Curtain Motor E1 is a versatile and convenient solution for automating your existing curtains, offering seamless integration with popular voice assistants and a range of smart home automation features. With its easy installation, long-lasting battery life, and compatibility with most popular rods, the Aqara Curtain Motor E1 is an excellent choice for enhancing your home's smart capabilities.
