Aqara Curtain Driver E1 | Automate your curtains

Never get out of bed to open the curtains again? With the Aqara Curtain Driver E1, it becomes a reality! This smart "curtain robot" simply attaches to your existing curtain rod or track to automate your curtains. It's the perfect retrofit solution: you don't have to change anything about your existing curtains. Choose the version that suits your home and enjoy ultimate convenience.

Choose the Right Version for Your Curtains

It's very simple. Depending on how your curtains hang, choose the right one:

• Rod Version (for Curtain Rods): Perfect for standard, round curtain rods with a diameter between 25mm and 32mm. Note: Not suitable for extendable/telescopic rods.
• Track Version (for Curtain Rails): Suitable for the most common U-shaped and I-shaped curtain rails. The driver comes with wheels for both rail types.

Easy Installation, Great Convenience

Installation is a breeze and requires no tools. Simply hang the driver on your rod or click it into your track, connect it, and you're done. The powerful motor can effortlessly open and close curtains weighing up to 12 kg. Do you have two curtains that close in the middle? Then use two drivers that you can group together so they move in perfect sync.

Smart Features for Optimal Comfort

Thanks to the built-in light sensor, you can automatically close the curtains when it gets too bright outside, helping to keep your home cool in the summer. Or let them open slowly in the morning to wake up naturally. The motor speed is adjustable! The enormous 6000mAh battery lasts up to a year, and charging is easy with the included USB-C cable.

• Two Versions: Available for both curtain rods (Rod) and curtain rails (Track).
• Easy Retrofit Installation: No tools or modifications required.
• Powerful Motor: Suitable for heavy curtains up to a maximum weight of 12 kg.
• Long Battery Life: The 6000mAh battery lasts up to a year.
• Built-in Light Sensor: Automate your curtains based on sunlight.
• Broad Support: Works directly with Homey & Home Assistant, or via a hub with HomeKit, Google & Alexa.
• NB:
  - Make sure you choose the correct version (Rod or Track) for your curtains.
  - An Aqara Hub is required to use with HomeKit, Google, or Alexa.

Smart Home Platform Compatibility:

• Home Assistant: You can connect the Curtain Driver directly to Home Assistant via a Zigbee coordinator (such as a Connect ZBT-1 or Sonoff stick) using ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT. All basic functions then work completely locally. You can also connect it via an Aqara Hub for a more plug-and-play experience.
• Homey: The Aqara Curtain Driver E1 is fully supported for direct Zigbee integration with Homey (Pro). You don't need a separate Aqara hub for this. After installing the official Aqara & Xiaomi Zigbee app in Homey, you can immediately add the driver and use it in your Flows.
• Fibaro: No, the Aqara Curtain Driver E1 is not compatible with a direct Zigbee connection to a Fibaro Home Center (such as the HC3). This device is not supported.
