Mistake: people replace entire curtain motors when a smart curtain switch can do the job. A smart curtain switch plugs into your roller shutter or blinds and gives you voice control, remote RF access, and app-based automation in about 15 minutes. Why wrestle cords and clunky remotes when one mini module handles schedules, scenes, and hands-free control?
Who This Is For
If you have roller shutters, motorized blinds, or a retrofit curtain motor and want Alexa or Google Home control without replacing hardware, this module fits. Ideal for renters, DIYers, and small workshops that need hub-free, app-based automation. It also works for rooms where you want timers, scenes, or voice control for light blocking and privacy.
Fits people who prefer low-friction installs – minimal wiring, a compact mini module that tucks behind switches, and remote RF support for legacy remotes. If safety, insulation, and clean cable routing matter, this is for you.
Why It Works
- Remote & App Control – Use the included RF remote or the Tuya / Smart Life app for 2.4 GHz WiFi access anywhere.
- Voice-ready – Works with Alexa and Google Home for hands-free opening and closing via voice commands.
- 433 MHz RF support – Compatible with common RF remotes for roller shutter and blind setups.
- DIY mini module – Compact form factor fits behind switches or inside junction boxes; easy mounting with basic hardware.
- Hub-free operation – Connects directly to home WiFi, no separate hub needed, simplifying integration and maintenance.
- Automation features – Set schedules, scenes, and timers in the app for energy efficiency, security, and convenience.
How to Choose
- Compatibility – Confirm your roller shutter or blind motor supports external switch control and matches the module wiring type.
- Power and wiring – Check if you have a neutral or compatible line. Some installs need basic wiring knowledge or an electrician for safety.
- Frequency match – If you rely on existing RF remotes, ensure 433 MHz support for seamless pairing.
- App ecosystem – Choose Tuya/Smart Life if you want wide third-party integrations and cloud-based schedule options.
- Form factor trade-offs – Smaller mini modules tuck into junction boxes but may require extension cables or a bracket for neat mounting.
From Box to Daily Use
- Power down the circuit and verify with a tester – safety first when dealing with live wiring.
- Mount the mini module near the motor or inside the junction box, using the mounting bracket or insulation tape as needed.
- Connect line, neutral, and motor leads per the wiring guide – secure terminals and tidy cables for durability.
- Power up, then pair the module to your 2.4 GHz WiFi in the Smart Life / Tuya app.
- Link to Alexa or Google Home for voice control, and program schedules, scenes, or automation rules in the app.
- Test RF remote control and fine-tune travel limits or stop positions if your motor supports it.
