Charging Battery Drapes

Typical Battery Life

This is influenced by many factors: weight, size of drape and how many times it’s operated. Unfortunately, it’s very hard to tell how many times a guest opens and closes the drapes per day, so our recommendation is to charge the battery for 4 hours at a time, each quarter, or when battery light turns red.


The Connector

These motors come with an attachable battery (see arrow). You will need a charging cord (looks like a laptop charger), that connects to the battery and standard outlet when charging is needed. Note that the drape should NOT be used while charging.


Light on Motor

To avoid an accidental reprogramming of drive, please do not touch this light/button. Light indicator on button will flash red when battery is running low.


Charger Light

Plug the charger into the bottom of the battery and the LED indicator will light up as follows:

• Solid Red = Charging

• Solid Green = Charging is complete

When charging is complete, disconnect and store your charger to use at a later time.
