What we love

If you home is anything like mine, you strive to make it as smart as possible, but there’s still a device or two that doesn’t play ball. For me, it’s electric fireplaces. Luckily, they can be toggled on and off using infrared, and this hub can learn to transmit those signals using Siri, Google Assistant, and Alexa. It also paves acts as a hub for the rest of Aqara’s smart home devices, and I am personally a huge fan of the brand.

Aqara M2 Smart IR HomeKit Hub features:

• 360° Infrared Control: Control your existing IR devices such as fans, air conditioners, TVs from any part of your room by voice and via home automations (indoor use only).
• Ethernet RJ45 Port & USB Power: Wired connection via Ethernet RJ45 for extra stability and lower response time. More flexible installation with USB power (power bank with pass-through charging is advised).
