Hey everyone, I’m excited to share my recent journey with the Broadlink RM PRO and RF sockets! 
I recently purchased the Broadlink RM PRO to control my RF sockets, and I must say, it’s been a fantastic addition to my setup. The integration with Home Assistant has been smooth, and I’ve managed to automate several parts of my home. Here’s how I set it up:
yaml
switch:
- platform: broadlink
host: xx.xx.xx.xx
mac: ‘xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx’
switches:
table_lamps:
friendly_name: Table Lamps
command_on: ‘…’ # Base64 encoded RF signal
command_off: ‘…’ # Base64 encoded RF signal
couch_lamp:
friendly_name: Couch Lamp
command_on: ‘…’
command_off: ‘…’
tv_lamp:
friendly_name: TV Lamp
command_on: ‘…’
command_off: ‘…’
tv_lg:
friendly_name: LG TV
command_on: ‘…’
command_off: ‘…’
fireplace:
friendly_name: Sfeerhaard
command_on: ‘…’
command_off: ‘…’
The setup process was straightforward, and I’m impressed by how reliable the Broadlink RM PRO is. However, there’s one minor hiccup I encountered. I noticed that turning off the TV is inconsistent—it works about 1/50 of the time, even though the same button works perfectly from the Android app. I’ve tried using different codes with the learning feature, but the issue persists. If anyone has a workaround, I’d love to hear it! 
Overall, I’m thrilled with how this setup has enhanced my home automation experience. It’s been a great learning process, and I’m excited to explore more possibilities with my Broadlink RM PRO and RF sockets.
