IR Blaster with Thread/Matter or Wi-Fi?

Hardware
1

Hello everyone!
I'm looking for an IR blaster with Thread/Matter or, alternatively, Wi-Fi compatible with Home Assistant. I want to use it with 2x AC units (Toshiba) that doesn't have Wi-Fi.

I've found the Nature Remo Nano, but unfortunately it's impossible to order them from Italy.

Any advice? It would be great also if they use normal battery (eg. AA or AAA).

Thanks in advance!

I use Broadlink to send IR commands from Home Assistant.

Hey! Thanks :slight_smile: Which model specifically? How is the range of the IR?

I use the Broadlink Mini Pro. There is a Home Assistant integration for it, and very recently @perkins.tony released an app for managing it.

Range? I have no clue. It floods the room with IR signals.
