Detachable Wand

At any time, you can pull the wand off of its magnetic connection. This is done because the lever that the wand attaches to is not indestructible. The engineers of the SoftTouch® Motorization decided to not risk bent lever arms.

Reconnecting it is as easy as it looks. Just get the two ends of the SoftTouch wands anywhere close to one another and they reconnect. The magnets are pretty strong, but a strong pull outside of the parameters will remove the wand from its connection.

Go Rechargeable.

Never worry about purchasing batteries for your powered blinds and upgrade to a Rechargeable Battery Wand! With Lithium Ion Batteries, you will never lose power to your blinds until it is completely empty. With traditional batteries they will slowly lose their charge and your blinds will operate slower and slower until the batteries are empty.

Plus, batteries are expensive.
