Eve MotionBlinds retrofit kit is now available and they are awesome

Had my eye on these since they got announced at the beginning of this year. Installed one last week and just put up two more today. They need a minimum 1.5" diameter tube to fit inside of which my cheap home depot blinds didn’t have. I just got a 1.5" piece of ABS plastic tube, cut it to size, and re-rolled my blind material onto it. Works a treat.

They are a bit pricy but so far they work well and integrated pretty easily into HA via the HomeKit Controller integration. Apparently they can also work over Thread but I have yet to look too much into making that happen.

@etinthehouse Do you mind sharing the required steps – from unpacking and how you did the configuration of the Eve MotionBlinds to connect to HA.
