Hello,

Thanks for the development.

According to the descritpion, your code allow to interface with Blauberg VENTO Expert A50-1 W. Do you expect antoher Wifi product from Blauberg to be controlled with your code ?

I'm looking for a very basic and not so expensive air extractor that might be controlled through Wifi and integrated in HA.

Thanks.

Hi, I've had a look at the two fans you have linked to and I wouldn't expect any of those to work unfortunately. They have different capabilities and different sensors than the fan i have created the library for. And I couldn't find any documentation on how these fans communicate with the Android/iPhone app so its hard to predict whether or not my code will work or not. If you can dig up any form of documentation on those I should be able to provide you with an answer, but for now, like I said, I wouldn't expect them to work.

Thank you for the feedback.

Those products are pretty new and there are not easily available from a shop. So, this is difficult to get technical information right now. Probably in the coming months, it would be easier. Anyway, I'll come back to you with more information when available.

If not possible on short term, I plan to use a simple fan combined with an external sensor (for example : Xiaomi aqara temp/hum sensor) and to make the logic in HA or NodeRed. I would prefer to use a dedicated device with all the sensor integrated in so that it might work without HA or Wifi if needed.

By the way, could you please share the documentation on how Blauberg VENTO Expert A50-1 W communicate with iOS/Android through WiFi ?

Thanks.
