I’m completely sure it uses 2.4GHz.
The Amazon listing shows 2.4GHz in the last image
Hello people of Lemmy,
I have a light bar for my monitor and it has a remote that (I assume) uses a 2.4 GHz radio. Do you have any recommendations for a Thread-enabled transmitter so I can control it from HASS?
I think I’ll try the IKEA thing that was mentioned in other comments, and maybe I’ll make something with ESPHome if I need something else.
I do have access to a 3d printer so I think ESPHome is the answer
I’m looking for a Thread button or rotary encoder to control my smart lights, preferable under $15. It can be battery powered or wired. I have a border router across the house, within wifi range. Does anyone have any recommendations?
Please let me know what you end up doing, because I might have a similar problem at some point.
See my other comment. I guess a 3-way-switch with a relay could work, but not a relay in parallel with the switch. Sequence might achieve the goal but it’s not fully functional
I don’t think a relay would work because it wouldn’t let you turn the lights off without getting up, and would make it so the switch won’t turn the lights off without turning of the relay from your phone.
Thanks for the better explanation
My point is, you would keep the switch on no matter what and flick it off and on again when switching the lights on/off
Assuming technically possible, this solution requires no other hardware:
Is it possible to make the smart plug default to the opposite of the last state? You could use the wall switch like a pushbutton (cut and restore power) and it would toggle, then maintain control from HASS. You might be able to save the last state of the smart plug, detect when it comes online after a power failure (theoretically), and set it to the opposite of the previous state in an automation.
I can’t find anything. I might have the manual or box somewhere.
