Simplicity Rechargeable Motorized Shades help reduce your energy costs because they are controlled by remote control, by our NeoSmart APP. Simplicity motorization can even be integrated into your smart home automation system or controlled by Alexa or Google Home. Simplicity Motorized Shades can save you energy if set on a schedule, by which shades are opened or closed in response to heat and sunlight. Plus, instead of disposing of the shade’s batteries, our batteries are rechargeable and are guaranteed for 5 years. A solar panel option is also available, and harnesses the power of the sun to charge your shades batteries.
