A comment that we often hear from people who have motorized, automated shades is, "I don't know how I ever lived without them!" Unfortunately, motorized shades have traditionally been an expensive luxury. In addition, they have been difficult to integrate into retrofit projects due to the extensive wiring requirements.
 That's why we are very excited about the recent announcement of Lutron's Sivoia QS System battery powered cellular shades.
According to David Weinstein, VP of residential sales for Lutron, "Up until now, battery-powered shades have not delivered consistent and reliable battery life. In addition, most of the existing battery-powered technology is neither quiet, precise, or affordable."
The new shades utilize Lutron's patent-pending Triathalon Power Technology and are powered by four to six D batteries, which can last two to five years. Traditional motorized shades can consume a great amount of energy, since there is a need to power both the motor and the control of the shades. Lutron's new battery technology solves the problem and will make it much easier and economical for more homeowners to benefit from the advantages of motorized shades.
Of course, there is no need to limit yourself to cellular shades. Homeowners in Boston and Main Line Philadelphia have been enjoying the benefits of Lutron shades for years. To learn more about these products, call simpleHome or visit Lutron shades.
