Switch it Curtain Rod Stopped Travelling
spahnlie
Been using my switchbot curtain rod for a couple years now, it's great, the past couple of days one of the pair has stopped traveling. I can hear the motor going, and when I remove it from the rod I can see the wheel spinning. There is plenty of battery life.
I suspect the issue is the rubber wheel has an indent and can no longer grip properly. I've tried running the bot in various tight to loose settings.
Is there a replacement rubber wheel I can order? I don't want to buy another bot just for one small part.

I’m experiencing exactly the same issue with the rubber wheel. Please make spare parts available via shop.
The solution that I am currently going with is using grip tape (for skateboards) on the underside of the rod. It helps the bot wheel grip and continue to travel.
I got the 1" grip tape from amazon. Make sure you really clean the rod with soapy water and dry it completely before applying the tape.
Thanks for the solution spahnlie. Can you please share some information on the exact tape you're using? Are you using it on a U rail like me? In that case I'll probably need to cut out 2 small strips stick them on both ends of the rail, right? Is it working out for you still?
