Great video. The upgrade kits seem to be available in the UK through B&Q.

[@TheLokCheung]

You're right! Thanks for the info, I couldn't find it before!

[@Aaron-lx6dr]

Thanks for this tip!!

[@oc2phish07]

Hmmmm, very interesting video, Lok. Those blinds do seem to be opening at an extremely slow shutter speed. What is the resolution? What file sizes do they produce? Do they also have any form of IBIS? More seriously. it is good to see you producing videos on a wider and wider range of subjects. Great stuff.👍

[@liketheduck]

Thank you for the long term review!

[@c-a-t-entertinment7075]

RIP DRTV. But our Lok is still here!

[@ynadle1111]

thank you for sharing your experience with these shades. amazing insight! im not quite sure if they are too loud now lol

[@vvwvvwvv]

Ah these are cool, very nice looking slice of your home too!

[@jbmaru]

Now you can develop photographs in that room!

[@JeremyToh]

I would love to have the same setup over at my place. 👍

[@SquidsTv]

In a way, the curtains are like the aperture of a camera, It still has to do with light! :D

[@MrRedskin0007]

Hi. My window is 72" wide by 144" long. Would the Eve MotionBlind work and fit in mine? Thanks for your help.

[@DixonLu]

QQQ: How did you level them during installation when they are that high up?

[@TheLokCheung]

I installed them on the ceiling but if it was on a wall, because you’d install two brackets first, so you measure and make sure the two brackets are level first; then when you clip the curtains on they will be level

[@Marbeary]

Actually this is relevant in photography/video someone out there might need it for green screen or even a portrait backdrop but to lazy to do it manually. Also how is the sound dampening in the room with the curtains?

[@TheLokCheung]

Too bad I’m not sure about sound dampening, it’s too quiet where I live!

[@edwindungdung1998]

Greatest opening ever, very villan like.

[@gewglesux]

Great Job Lok! I'd settle with Air Conditioning.
