The motor systems on horizontal wood and faux wood blinds is designed to tilt your blind to any angle. The motorized system will not lift the blind - wood and faux wood blinds are just too heavy to work well with a motorized lift system. As such, manufacturers do not currently offer motorized lift option for wood or faux wood blinds.
However, most people rarely if ever lift their wood or faux wood blinds, rather they tilt them for light control and privacy, as such motorized tilt can be a convenient feature. The motor in these blinds is a 12 volt system delivered with either a battery tube which contains 8ea lithium batteries, or else a hard wire plug with a 12 volt transformer. Obviously, the hardwire option provides a better more consistent power stream which does not require periodic battery replacement, but for the corded option you do have to deal with how best to run the cord form the top of the headrail to the nearest outlet location.
