The unit feels sturdy and build quality is good. Really easy to fix to the wall and connect up the bead cord. It was straighforward to set the top and bottom positions (hold the up and down buttons together to put in "learning mode"; then move the blinds to the correct position and quick press the up five times to store the top, press the down button five times to store the bottom position). I don't have an Aquara hub but I was able to pair the device with my Home Assistant hub (Sonoff/Tasmota) first time. After that I raise and close the blinds with Alexa, Google, Home Assistant or manually. Alexa raises the blinds automatically in the morning while playing "Here Comes the Sun". Cheesey and fantastic. I bought two more to automate blinds in my home office. The fact that they are battery operated and can be rechaged with a USB charger is a real plus - no unsightly wires being run to the window. Only downside is the price and lack of availability from the Aquara desertcart store. However Aquara were quick to respond to my queries about when stock would be available again. Review: Reliable, simple, effective - I bought 2 of these and was sufficiently pleased that I bought a third. We have them on 3 small but fairly heavy fabric Roman blinds that certainly need a good tug to get moving, but the motors are fine. Ours are integrated into Homeassistant via a electrolama ZigBee dongle and the connectivity is totally reliable. The battery state also shows up in Homeassistant and, opened and closed once a day, they are getting through about 5% battery a week, so will probably need charging every 3 months. As it may be helpful for someone, one of the blinds gets a lot more use and is conveniently close to a power supply, so this one is powered. The charging state is shown in Homeassistant and the external power is disconnected each time once the battery is back to 100%, so I feel comfortable that it can remain plugged in all the time without damaging the battery. The full retail price seems a bit high, and is expensive if you have a lot of blinds, so I waited for a special offer. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Brand | Aqara | | Colour | standard | | Item weight | 0.23 Kilograms | | Material | Plastic | | Unit count | 1.0 count | | Voltage | 5 Volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Aqara - **Colour:** standard - **Item weight:** 0.23 Kilograms - **Material:** Plastic - **Voltage:** 5 Volts ## Images ![Roller Shade Driver E1, Requires Aqara HUB, Smart Blind Motor with Schedule and Voice Control, Rechargeable with Long Battery Life, Compatible with HomeKit, Alexa, Google Assistant, and IFTTT - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51qfqaJsFyL.jpg) ![Roller Shade Driver E1, Requires Aqara HUB, Smart Blind Motor with Schedule and Voice Control, Rechargeable with Long Battery Life, Compatible with HomeKit, Alexa, Google Assistant, and IFTTT - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51+YtfwVKaL.jpg) ![Roller Shade Driver E1, Requires Aqara HUB, Smart Blind Motor with Schedule and Voice Control, Rechargeable with Long Battery Life, Compatible with HomeKit, Alexa, Google Assistant, and IFTTT - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51p01gOujzL.jpg) ![Roller Shade Driver E1, Requires Aqara HUB, Smart Blind Motor with Schedule and Voice Control, Rechargeable with Long Battery Life, Compatible with HomeKit, Alexa, Google Assistant, and IFTTT - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/511EocBnoVL.jpg) ![Roller Shade Driver E1, Requires Aqara HUB, Smart Blind Motor with Schedule and Voice Control, Rechargeable with Long Battery Life, Compatible with HomeKit, Alexa, Google Assistant, and IFTTT - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61VuWb9vG2L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does the job - works with Home Assistant too. *by D***R on 17 October 2021* I bought one of these to automate the existing roller blind in a bedroom.

It opens and closes the blinds. The operation is a little bit noisy, but that’s to be expected and it’s not exactly fast, taking about 35 seconds to fully open my roman blind, although it is quite heavy. Battery life is good, lasting a good few weeks to a month. Setup is super easy, i wouldn’t bother with the 3M Sticky tape as it just ripped all of the paint off my wall and i felt it wasn’t as secure as the screws. It’s a slight shame that you have to buy a hub to go with it also as that’s another add on to the price, but hey ho. Setup in the app was very easy and quick, also integration with alexa was very easy and quick. There is a slight delay between asking alexa and the motor moving, but nothing too major. One thing to note is that it has to be tight on the chain of the blind, otherwise it will catch on the plastic cap and pull it off. This is a good product, slightly pricey for what it does but worth the investment for a luxury room. My only option as my roman blind fabric didn’t come with an automatic version. ## Frequently Bought Together - Aqara Roller Shade Driver E1, Requires Aqara HUB, Smart Blind Motor with Schedule and Voice Control, Rechargeable with Long Battery Life, Compatible with HomeKit, Alexa, Google Assistant, and IFTTT - Aqara Smart Hub E1 (2.4 GHz Wi-Fi Required), Powered by USB-A, Small Size, Zigbee 3.0, Acts as a Wi-Fi Repeater (Hotspot) for up to 2 Devices, Supports HomeKit, Alexa, Google Assistant, IFTTT - Aqara Wireless Mini Switch, Requires AQARA HUB, Zigbee Connection, Versatile 3-Way Control Button for Smart Home Devices, Compatible with Apple HomeKit, Smart Switch Works with IFTTT --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/719982498-roller-shade-driver-e1-requires-aqara-hub-smart-blind-motor](https://www.desertcart.in/products/719982498-roller-shade-driver-e1-requires-aqara-hub-smart-blind-motor) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-06-17*
