Review on EMylo RF Motor Controller: Wireless Smart Switch For Rolling Door, Electric Curtains, Locks & Water Pump by Casey Yuh

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It Works; Could Be Better

For the price this is an amazing bargain. We installed it to control a motorized projector screen. Remote fob works at a distance of about 50 feet (back of the room).Pros:1. Pretty much plug-and-play if you want the default "latching" mode. In that mode, the motor keeps going until you press the stop button.2. Much less expensive than other options out there.Cons:1. The lead wires are very short (maybe 2 inches long). They would be much more useful if they were several inches longer. I am going to have to extend them in order to install the receiver unit properly.2. The documentation is unintelligible. It refers to a "motor button" that is nowhere identified in the instructions. This turns out to be a little illuminated thing on the receiver itself. However, the description of what to do to (a) change from latching to momentary mode, and/or (b) re-pair the transmitter, is bewildering -- obviously written by someone with only a scant knowledge of English.3. I wanted the momentary mode for the screen, and so I attempted to follow the instructions. Nothing happened in the manner described. However, after a lot of fiddling, the unit finally went into momentary mode. Unfortunately, this also un-paired one of the two transmitters. I was able to pair that transmitter after further fooling around, but this then un-paired the first transmitter that had been working. I only need one working transmitter, but I am hoping that I can figure out how to get them both paired again. (They were both paired when I first powered up the unit in its default latching mode.)Overall it's not a bad unit, and if the instructions for pairing and mode setting were intelligible it would be even better. Longer lead wires would be nice also.

Pros
  • remote already paired, easy installation
Cons
  • The switch may be unreliable, causing unexpected motor stoppages or failures
