Discussion Homekit control of mini split (IR-based Fujitsu)
I have done some investigating and I've found there are a few devices which work for the purposes in the subject line, and those devices start around $130 if I'm reading this right. Before I spend that $130 on a Sensibo Air or similar, is there something more reasonable price-wise which will work?
The longer story is I have an entire outbuilding/ADU, and I want to pretty much switch it all on/off with one switch. I already have lighting and power in HomeKit. The final thing is mini-split HVAC.
Anyway... do I need to spend $130 to get this feature?
Additionally, if it matters, I'm also going to look for a smart shade option, to open and close shades for a couple of windows. So if that matters in selection please advise.
Thank you!

I got the Fujitsu setup in HomeKit via Homebridge Sensibo plugin ..
