Three devices. They all do the same thing (IR Transceiver) using the same app (Tuya smart home?) I hate apps. These are Bluetooth/wifi devices. They could simply host web pages and an API. Instead you must use their app. To that I say NO! So let's find out what makes them tick. There's no screws on these, so time to bring out the opening tools. Not bad. Just a few clips. A wiggle here and a wiggle there and it's open. The IR Filter plastic doesn't look transparent at all, and it's kind of thick. I tested the IR filter with my IR fan remote, it worked perfectly. Here are pictures through the filters. I'm no light spectrum'ologist person, but wouldn't the pinkish one be a better filter? First look at the PCBs, Two have the same CBU WiFi module, one is different, the w3bs. CBU Module Datasheet: https://developer.tu
You ever want to take apart something prohibitively expensive and find out what's inside? I do, all the time. Lucky for me this cast aluminum massager is broken (it won't turn off). So I get to try to fix it (hopefully). It's likely just a bad mosfet. But it'd be fun to upgrade. It's surprisingly low power. 19.5W, 13v @ 1.5A 13v is a bit strange to see, but whatever. Could very likely be replaced by a 12v supply without significant loss in power. One screw came out halfway and appears to stop. Maybe it has a retaining clip? The other at the end won't budge. Time for a bigger screwdriver. It took a bit of prying. The retaining ring is glued on (I was worried it was screwed on). A bit of wiggling and it's free. The screw that I thought had a retaining clip actually has a screw standoff to hold the PCB in. I might try to take them apart, but it's not necessary to. And now for what you've all been waiting for. It's an incredibly simple
