BroadlinkAC2MQTT

Control your broadlink-based air conditioner using Home Assistant

Advantages

• Small application size (~10.2 Mb docker, ~8.2 Mb Windows Standalone)
• Easy to install and use
• Support all platforms
• Parallel independent air conditioning support. If one air conditioner is offline, it will not affect the rest!
