Well, that is the first paragraph on their new web site for their new product. Here’s a link to it QMotion.

I have been in this crazy and sometimes wild west business since 1990. I have seen a lot of new and innovative products come along and just as quickly disappear. Call it jaded or call it experience, I have begun to be able to sniff out a winner. This ladies and gentlemen is a winner. I said it.

One of the problems we have continually run into is folks wanting motorized shades who haven’t done the prep work necessary to have them (i.e. pre-wiring) and they don’t want us fishing wires through and cutting holes in their freshly finished and painted walls and ceilings. Can’t blame them. So, they tell us they want battery powered shades but then are nonplussed at the idea of having to change batteries every 6-12 months. Enter QMotion. QMotion has created a quiet, reliable, simple roller shade that uses batteries that last 5 years. Yes. FIVE YEARS. “How do they do this?!” Well, they did something that I have always wondered why it hadn’t been done before. They placed the batteries inside the tube of the roller shade. DUH! Imagine having a MAG Lite that instead being a great indestructible flashlight is a roller shade. Okay, maybe that’s a bad comparison but you get the idea. This is definitely going to give Hunter Douglas and Lutron something to worry about in their residential markets.

We are already getting a lot of interest in this amazing new product. Call us for a demo today. 770-512-0206 Or email me at Jsmith@atlantablinds.com.
