Hi all

Does anyone have any recommendations for a tv lift which integrates well with Homey?

We have some indoor and outdoor tv cabinets and we’re looking for compatible mechanisms to put inside them so that Homey can lift the TV’s as part of the flows etc.

Many thanks!

If such things exist and are not ‘smart’ consider using a [Switchbot](https://www.switch-bot.com/products/switchbot-bot) or similar to operate it.

Hi Ed,

From what I"ve seen they come with a wireless remote. But unknown if it is IR.  
When it’s an IR remote, you can consider purchasing a Broadlink RM 3 (or 4) mini (IR), or RM4 (IR + 433MHz RF).  
With one (or more) of these you can learn any IR signal and send it with Homey, with the revived [Broadlink app](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-broadlink-app/6389).

You can use a Switchbot hub as well, but it’s pricier. You can use the [Switchbot app](https://community.homey.app/t/app-cloud-pro-switchbot-release-1-1-51-test-1-1-56/42296) to control it with Homey.

And I’m not sure if one unit can reach all 4 TV lifts without obstacles.

Brilliant thanks both.

I think the switchbot is likely to be the way to go!
