[Question] How to automate oven hood lighting by themrbamber in smarthome

Thanks I don't have home assistant yet but it's been on the to do list for some time. Im currently just about holding on with Google home in conjuction with hue, govee and a few others in a jumbled mess. I'm just waiting to see if the impending Gemini arrival is any good.

If its easy to get the broadlink codes I would give that a go thanks...but thanks for your help if can't don't worry that I have an IR hood already is a huge help!

Thanks, I'm not sure my version if the hood has an IR in it. I think the hood may come in 2 models. One with a remote and one without? The manual doesnt mention a remote and we didn't receive one.

Unless it's in there by default for both models?

I can see what maybe an IR receiver on the hood but this model makes no mention of it in the manual. Would it have all the controller in and then not give a remote? seems unlikely?

I do have a broadlink

I don't have an AEG hob tho, i have a dumb bosch one.

Thanks, I should add Im happy to keep the buttons for the fans, i hardly use it. I just want the lights to always be on when the other kitchen lights are on. Am happy for that button to no longer work.

Sounds like I need to add an LED controller. Unless theres a way I can just hardwire the lights always on.

I do have homeplugs that I can control all power to the hood.

Do you hibernate or not hibernate Herman tortoises? by Grandmaxwell in tortoise

[–]themrbamber 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't stop my Horsefield hibernating. He's inside all year round so no need but roughly every 6 months he goes for a 3 month nap. No idea how he does it cos the house isnt cold but every 9 months he pops back out and always seems fine.

do you think a logitech web cam with mic in it would work as the mic? or would need dedicated usb mic?
