This is a Levoit Vital 100 and it has a timer to switch itself off after x hours but i’d like to turn it on automatically.
I’m somewhat fit with soldering and taking stuff apart but i don’t wanna go that route before i have atleast a rough understanding of what’s up with those buttons.
Thx! 🙂
If it has a remote, then using Home Assistant plus an IR emitter might be easier.
Our evaporative air cooler uses IR, we bought a Tuya ir receiver and taught it the remote codes. Whole thing carried through to home assistant with the plugin.
Tuya devices are extremely sketchy. The only reason you should buy one is if you’re going to flash it with Tasmota.
Otherwise it should go in the trash ASAP.
Many of them support ZigBee and work fine in that context. It’s just the wifi devices that are problematic.
Or, if it uses RF, a Bond Bridge.
Great point!
