Undocumented Devicesand how to use them without their apps

Control your Daikin heating and cooling from Home Assistant: set the temperature, change the mode, adjust the fan, and see when the filter needs cleaning. It reaches the BRC1H “Madoka” panel on your wall over Bluetooth — no Daikin account, no phone app.

The panel ignores any Bluetooth connection it hasn’t been paired with. No error, no refusal — it simply never answers. Handling that one sentence properly is half of this project.

The integration was originally mduran80’s work. This fork has carried it since — rewritten connection layer, the pairing handling above, and the ESPHome route.

Switch and dim your Häfele Connect Mesh lights from Home Assistant, using the ESPHome Bluetooth proxies already scattered around your house. It speaks Bluetooth Mesh itself, pairing included, so there is no extra box to buy.

Häfele discontinued the gateway these lights needed. The lights themselves were fine — only the way in had disappeared.

When your Bluetooth devices keep going unavailable, this tells you why. It shows which proxy is holding which connection, and names the fault when it finds one. It only ever watches — it changes nothing. I wrote it after too many evenings spent guessing.
