The stars of this video will be the @BroadLinkInternational Universal Remote control Broadlink RM4 Pro, @home_assistant and @Node-RED. The secondary roles will go to your existing remote controls and at the end we are going to retire them with honors.

We will deep dive and we will integrate #Broadlink RM4 Pro with #HomeAssistant & #Node-RED. Don’t be afraid if you can’t swim (If you don’t have Home Assistant
and Node-RED!) and I’m asking you to dive - the water is really shallow.

You may ask why should I Integrate Broadlink with Home Assistant and Node-RED when everything is already working with the Broadlink app and my voice assistant?

You need Broadlink with Home Assistant and Node-RED integration if you want to go local only & to smarten the things up a bit, actually not a bit, but a lot. You can make time and presence based Automations and you can involve all of your already existing devices to create useful and beautiful scenes. For example: to turn on an appliance and to switch off the lights only if you are at home and the time is right.

So let’s start with Home Assistant and Broadlink integration first and then we will continue with Node-RED.
