Really would be great to retrofit/automate my blinds. I know there's really two options out there on the market right now, but neither is an easy retrofit to existing 2" blinds. There's the Switchbot that is really for twisting wand controlled blinds, and then there's the Tuyas which are for a chain - in theory I could attach the chain to the end of the blind cords, but there's got to be a better way for those of us with old "two cord" blinds - there's an up and down cord, that's it. I really don't want to disassemble the blinds to put in hardward to change to a wand system and connecting a chain and bolting on to the wall seems too ugly. And none of them are TP-Link solutions that work with my Alexa/Google/Samsung and Tapo apps.

 

So - potential new product? I'm happy to test one out as a beta user - we have 11 windows across the front of our house and we open and close 6 of them every morning/evening - would be great to schedule them and be able to set "Open %" values so they can be partially open in the late afternoon and fully open morning/night, then closed in the evening. 

 

If anyone has a solution that exists while I wait for TP-Link to read this message, develop an entire product, and get it to market, I'm all ears.
