No way to get at the signal using the apps on the TV. You'd have to use a Chromecast with Google TV or similar.

I didn't mind it but far weaker than 4 & 5 - the addition of separate ammo types for specific enemies is a pain and the map isn't...

Darkscythe replied to Borg on Broadlink RM4 Pro S - IR/RF Hub - w/ Temp Sensor $39.74 Delivered @ Amazon AU
I'm fairly sure the Broadlink integration is running locally - it's just sending the Base64 command via the Broadlink unit. That said, I...

Yep, dimmer per switch. I believe one of the relay modules can do 2 switches on the 1 module.

They're not bad by any means but the Broadlink is better bang for your buck.

Yep, wifi. Just put in 2 dimmer modules and they're the best for home automation. Lots of customisation and they integrate with everything.

No, it sets up a separate Zigbee network so you don't use the hub anymore

From memory, they're all Wifi-enabled. The Conbee is for connecting Zigbee devices into a home automation setup like Home Assistant.

Paid $80 before it was locally available and worth every cent. Has been rock solid for months and new devices are constantly added.
