New IR Device

Hi. Anyone had experience with one of these?

Looks from the images that it uses an ESP device. Would be a nice addition to my home automation if it can be controlled use ESP easy?

Thanks, Andy.

So for anyone interested: - I bought one of these and although it looked (from the images) like it had an ESP inside, in was in-fact a much more powerful Marvell® 88MC200
Microcontroller. No good for this forum, however the LED arrangement and small form fact means that I may dismantle (break) the main board and replace it with an ESP. I understand that I will only be able to send raw hex codes, but that's all I want at the moment.

Any thoughts anyone?

I wonder if this one uses the same controller..
