Description
YIHAO YH002-A is a motorized controller for chain-operated blinds and roller shades, from the Powered by Shelly program. It mounts on the existing chain mechanism and drives it electrically, so the blinds can be opened and closed from the app or from a Shelly BLU remote control, without replacing the shading system.
The motor delivers a torque of 1.35 Nm at 50 rpm and is powered at 12 V DC through an included adapter with 100-240 V AC input. It can drive blinds of up to 10 kg with maximum dimensions of 2.5 x 3.5 m. Communication is via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5, and the device is intended for indoor use only.

Practical use cases
- Tall window in a living room with a skylight. The hard-to-reach chain blind is controlled from the app, with no ladder and no need for any work on the window frames.
- Automatic sun protection in summer. A schedule lowers the blinds during the hottest hours and raises them in the evening, reducing the load on the air conditioning without anyone having to intervene.
- Office with a meeting room. At the start of a presentation, the blinds lower with a single command from the Shelly BLU remote control, without anyone pulling the chain during the meeting.
- Home left empty for a few days. Raising and lowering the blinds at varying times creates the impression that someone is home, making a real contribution to deterring break-ins.
