Does the blinds automation kit lift my blinds?

Does the Solar Panel keep my blinds charged?
The Solar Panel is designed to keep the rechargeable battery fully charged when direct sunlight is available for a few hours each day. If a window does not receive enough direct sunlight on a regular basis due to trees, a porch overhang, or some other obstruction, a fully charged battery will last 2-3 months on a full charge. There is also an easy to access micro usb port for supplemental charging of the battery.
How loud is the motor?
The motor is designed to be quiet enough to not interrupt sleep.
