The BRAUNIT battery pack for the forthcoming Ikea Smart Blinds is now on sale in Germany, UK and Ireland. While this battery also supports Ikea’s Mullbacka it’s a clear sign that the release of the smart blinds is on track for late summer, as already reported.

The product description for the BRAUNIT battery pack references it being the power source for the FYRTUR and KADRILJ roller blinds. You charge the battery is via an USB which is sold separately, but if you already have the Ikea smart blinds, then you can use that.

While we have seen the Ikea smart blinds appear on the company’s website before. It is the first time a product related to them as been in stock, with 9 showing available at my local Sheffield store.

As previously reported via IKEA PR, they will release the smart blinds in August. Does this now mean we could see them being available as early as July?

As always, we will keep you updated on the latest with the IKEA smart roller blinds. So don’t forget to subscribe to receive the latest and if you have a question or comment, then leave it below.
