Homeassistant battery operated candles (self.homeassistant)

Hey all!

Did some research on this but does not seem to be too much out there on this subject. Does anyone have any battery operated candles they have successfully integrated with Homeassistant?

The number one solution I see is buying candles with a remote and then using a IR bridge to turn them on and off. I'm not sure how reliable this ost or where to start.

I think I would need a IR bridge for at least two different parts of the house that then connect back to home assistant and then I would also need candles with IT remotes that I could control from the hass bridge.

I use these candles: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MQE6LU3/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 but any on Amazon with the little remote should work just fine.

I use the RM Mini3 and they work great. Even got some of those AAA>USB adapters so no more replacing batteries either!
