Review: Great product and service - Works well Mike was fantastic to work with, Suoer helpful
Review: Works well. Worth the money, can save your Sunsetter! - Works well, has closed the Sunsetter when got windy out, which is good, as we want to keep it open as much as possible without constantly having to keep an eye on it. Easy to install, would recommend just sticking to end of outside of arm. Almost drilled through the front shade until I gave it some thought. Almost impossible to mount it if you follow the directions, as the inside bar where it tells you to install it is curved. We left it as Level 2, and that seems to be fine. Level 1 is the most sensitive. Make sure you mount with arrows up. I have seen pictures of people that mount it sideways, which probably won't work, as the now you are monitoring the lateral up/down, vs the horizontal up/down.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I have a sun setter awning. how do i know if it has a sonfy rts motor?**
A: Look at the remote. If it says SOMFY on it, it’s a SOMFY motor

**Q: Will this sensor work on the motorized sun setter Oasis?**
A: We have a motorizes retractable awning and our sensor works fine. It does require batteries so be sure and check the batteries as they are not rechargeable. I don't know what the Oasis model is. Good question for the Sunsetter company.

**Q: need to change battery in my somfy wind sensor, how do I remove it from the awning arm**
A: Hold the sensor cover in your left hand and tap the right side towards the left.  Be careful not to break the tabs while doing so.

**Q: Can i use any outdoor extension cord with my sunsetter retractable awning? i need about 30’ total.**
A: The cord that came with our awning is about 28 feet long. So on top of that do you need another 30 feet? It's a small motor so it might be alright as long as it ( the extension cord) is securely fastened .It's a good question for Sunsetter company, ( they are very helpful,) or an electrician. I hope you enjoy your as much as we do ours.

### ⭐ Sensor with a mind of its own!
*by S***Y on October 18, 2020*

We like to keep our awning out at night, but unfortunately the sensor retracts in the middle of the night, every night around 3am, sometimes in the day with no wind. Replaced the batteries, but makes no difference. Watched every video to see if I can get it to stop doing it. For some reasons unable to return the unit via amazon because it has gas inside it? Seems weird. Will try Somfy customer service. Here is the message I get when I try to return This item isn't eligible for return For safety reasons, items containing flammable liquids or gases can’t be returned to Amazon.
