Hi, thanks for the nice config!
One small question: which kind of IR receiver are you using with ESPHOME? I've a HX1838 laying around here, would that be an option?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Maarten! Glad it looks useful to you. The HX1838 looks a lot fancier than what I used, which was a simple Vishay TSOP38438. The receiver on your kit, the VS1838, didn't give me good results with bright lights, which you tend to have in a kitchen. As always, your mileage may vary.

https://www.analysir.com/blog/2014/12/08/infrared-receiver-showdown-tsop34438-vs-vs1838b-winner-revealed/ has a comparison. The TSOP38438 is a successor of the TSOP34438 in that test, but whatever you can get should work well.

Hi, thanks for the response!
I ordered a TSOP38438 at a local supplier. I will fork the code to make it sensor only, my actual hood is already controlled over wifi.

Oh cool! Were you able to reverse engineer the wifi protocol it uses?
