  • In this video I unbox and review the Broadlink RM Mini 3 universal remote and then take you through a full tutorial on how to automate, via Alexa, one of the dumbest devices in my house to show you what this amazing little gadget can do.
    Smart home automation can be very rewarding sometimes and no more so when you've got dumb devices in your home that you apparently can't automate.
    Don't suffer in silence wondering what you're going to do, I've found a solution to a really annoying problem I have with some dumb devices and before long you'll be automating every dumb device in your home with this universal remote, it really is that easy!

      No problem, I'm walking around the house looking for things I can hook up but that might mean getting another one 🤔

    I believe now you can use the broadlink app which Is much better and nicer looking interface. Thanks for the video setup.

      Yes the app in the video now prompts you to use the new version. I've yet to give it a try but interested to see what they've done.

    Does this work if you have more than one set of candles?

      Got two sets in the same room, they each have their own remote but it outputs the same signal so when the rm mini sends the signal it switches them both on. I'm fine with that as that's what we want but if you want them to fire separately then, in the same room, it might be a problem.

    Can this control my Sky HD box when I am away from home?

    • @Byteofgeek
      @Byteofgeek  3 роки тому +1

      Sky TV boxes are listed as devices you can control with it and you can control Alexa remotely, although I haven't tried, so in theory it should work.

    Why did you get the RM Mini 3 and not the 4?

    • @Byteofgeek
      @Byteofgeek  4 роки тому

      As far as I'm aware there's no fundamental difference between the two other than the design. I prefer the look of the Mini 3 over the 4 personally.

    PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, DO NOT BUY this crap: the RM Mini 3. IT DOES NOT CONNECT to the app anymore. It worked up to a point when they made app upgrade. The hardware it's OK but it's clear that Broadlink (who are obviously big crooks) want you to buy the newer version 4. I've tried everything (on IOS) all the apps IHC, Broadlink app, Broadlink e-control. It simply cannot connect to the device using both available connection methods. Piece of Crap

      Not having a problem myself, using the Broadlink app instead of IHC and connected to the European servers. I've only got 4 devices set up but it is working. I'm using 1.7.0 of the app btw
