The product awarded the prestigous prize for their Tumo Eco-Line drapery track, which uses solar power to run a motorized system. The plug-and-play setup needs no wiring to get going and is very simple to use. The Eco-line panel is mounted on the inside of the window pane and uses RF control for ultimate convenience.

This system can pull up to 44 lbs. with a single motor, and it can also be hand-drawn. Simply plug this system into the slim-designed solar accumulator, then control up to six systems or six groups of systems by radio remote. No electrician is necessary, and installation is fast and easy. The solar accumulator is designed for maximum solar collection while cleverly hidden by the drapery. Like all BTX systems, the Tumo Xcel Eco-line features flexible control options, including switch, RF remote and network control through dry contact closure, making it ideal for many different applications.
