How long can I expect the batteries to last on my Hunter Douglas battery-powered motorized window covering?

Battery life for PowerView^® automated window treatments is about 1 year, depending on shade size, configuration and usage. Hunter Douglas offers an AA battery wand as well as a rechargeable battery wand option. When using the standard AA battery wand, Hunter Douglas recommends alkaline batteries for all products with the exception of Duette^® and Applause^® honeycomb shades with SkyLift™, for which we recommend Lithium batteries.
