Is this library valid for the iConnectu module connected to Mars Hydro FC3000? #1

I would like to reverse engineer the iconnect module to integrate it in Home Assistant, so I am wondering if your project is based on this module?

I have a version ("Mars Hydro Smart FC 3000-EVO Samsung LM301H EVO 300W LED Grow Light for 100x100cm Grow Tent") which has bluetooth and wifi integrated, but maybe they did not change the protocol ;) Please let me know if I can assist you somehow :)

I have the exact same version and I would like to control it via Home assistant. Do you have any tips on how to go about it?

If you have an android phone, you can capture all bluetooth traffic (including the traffic of the sh*tty mars hydro app) and load that into wireshark. from there it should be relatively easy :) or you could find out the mac address and the device id with something like nrfconnect and reuse some of the code you can find here. I also wrote a little ble to mqtt gateway (right now unpublished because I am lazy) which uses this library. that gateway should be usable pretty easy from HASS
