I saw HAIR a while back. Figured I'll give IR a try to control my AC units. Bought 4 Tuya Universal IR Remotes. Turned out I need to flash them. Bought tools to flash them with OpenBeken. Turns out AC remotes don't send a single singnal, but sets of signals. OpenBeken doesn't see the full info from the AC remote. Oh well, IR is hard Well, at least the tools turned out to be useful in flashing a petkit cat feeder

Each row is one report from a GitHub thread, an integration’s docs, or r/homeassistant. Check the date and the linked source before you buy.

In ReReHome

Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
