I have Lutron Sivoia QS Triathlon shades. They make them either with batteries (8 D-cell or 16 D-cell depending on width) or a power supply or a multi-shade power supply (supports up to 10). Then get a Lutron Caseta Pro Hub 2 and use the Lutron component for full local control once you enable telnet on the hub. Be forewarned though… these shades are expensive and so is the power supply. But breakeven cost point of the power supply over batteries I calculated in 2019 is about 32 years (average battery life is 3-5 years with an average cost of $1.80 per battery, total of 96 batteries in use). I have 8 shades, 4 with 16 D-cell batteries and 4 with 8 D-cell batteries. I just replaced the batteries in 2 of them that have 8 batteries and are 12ft long by 2ft wide after 3.5 years of service.
