Z-Wave: My batteries are draining too fast. What could be causing this?

Modified on Thu, 30 Apr at 3:13 PM

The battery life of your motorized shades is a highly dependent on several factors: 

  • Size of shade and weight of fabric. Larger, heavier shades consume more energy when operated. 

  • How often the shade is operatedThe more frequently shades are operated, the more energy they consume. 

  • Type and quality of batteries used. We recommend Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries for best performance. 

  • Temperature of environment where batteries are installed. Excessively hot or cold environments tend to deplete batteries more rapidly. 

Given an average size shade, with average weight fabric, using our recommended batteries, properly installed, and operated once up and once down per day, batteries should last approximately between 6 months to a year. If your battery performance is significantly less (demonstrated over multiple sets of batteries), contact customer service.
