| Sometimes your missus forces you to own a remote. Sometimes that remote is deliberately locked down by the manufacturer, I don’t care too much for being told what I can’t control, so this is a simple hack to show you how to control practically any cheap smart home device using the Harmony Hub.
In this how to video tutorial I will show you in typical Paul Hibbert fashion how to control RF and Wifi devices with the Harmony hub and basically any other device that can connect to IFTTT (If this then that) using any Android box that works with the Harmony hub.
