Lutron Introduces Wire-Free, Battery-Powered Cellular Shades
The cellular shades feature new, patent-pending Triathlon™ Battery Life technology, which utilizes hybrid drive design plus ultra-efficient standby power to extend battery life to three years – well above the current industry standard. Shades use standard D batteries.
Several options are being introduced, including those that work with Lutron’s RadioRA 2 and HomeWorks QS total home control systems and Lutron’s GRAFIK Eye QS. A non-system option is also being offered.
The three options are: Non-system version, controlled by an infrared remote
• base price is $299
Non-system version, controlled by Lutron’s Pico wireless remote control
• base price is $324
Sivoia QS system version that is compatible with HomeWorks QS, RadioRA 2 and GRAFIK Eye QS
• base price is $424
Prices will vary depending on size (up to 82” x 82”, maximum) and fabric selection, but these base prices include entry level fabric for one window up to 3’ x 5’ (which covers most residential windows).
The addition of cellular shades rounds out an already extensive collection of automated window treatments from Lutron, including roller shades, Roman shades, vertical and horizontal draperies and Venetian blinds with independent control of lift and tilt. The new, battery-powered, wire-free, cellular shade provides a crisp, clean look that enhances any décor and is available in three styles:
1. Single Cell Light Filtering Shades
• allows daylight to filter into a space, even when shades are down
• provides privacy from outside
• styles include sheer, woven and crush fabrics
2. Double Cell Light Filtering Shades
• allows some light filtering into the space
• saves energy with double cell, insulating design
3. Single Cell Blackout Shades
• blocks light entering into a space
• creates complete privacy from the outside
• saves energy with aluminum lining
“The introduction of lower-cost, advanced battery-powered, cellular shades represents the evolution of Lutron shading technology,” said David Weinstein, Vice-President, Residential Sales at Lutron. “Lutron has been in the shading business for 20 years and has raised the bar with the first wire-free window treatment with a superior battery life. Its ability to be installed quickly and easily– with just two brackets – makes it simple to retrofit into a wide range of residential applications,” said Weinstein.
Lutron cellular shades are offered in more than 100 unique color/style combinations and almost 50 colors. The shades are built-to-order and are specified in Lutron’s Shade Configuration Tool (SCT). Shades will begin shipping in October.
