Frequently Asked Questions
Which is better overall: the Moes RF IR Universal Remote Controller or the Moes Temp/Humidity Monitor with IR?
The Moes Temp/Humidity Monitor with IR wins overall, costing less, rating higher and adding built-in temperature and humidity sensors. The Moes RF IR Universal Remote Controller only wins on protocols, because of its added RF support.
What is the biggest difference between them?
The Moes Temp/Humidity Monitor with IR has a built-in temperature and humidity sensor that can trigger IR commands automatically, something the Moes RF IR Universal Remote Controller does not have. In exchange, the RF IR model adds RF (radio) control that the sensor-equipped model lacks.
Can the Moes Temp/Humidity Monitor with IR control RF devices?
No, it is infrared only. If you need RF (radio) control for devices like some fans or blinds, the Moes RF IR Universal Remote Controller is the one that supports it.
Does either model run on battery power?
No, both require constant WiFi and wired power, with no battery operation on either. They otherwise share the same connectivity: 2.4GHz WiFi, Alexa, Google Home and Home Assistant support, and no Apple HomeKit.
Who should buy the Moes Temp/Humidity Monitor with IR?
Anyone who wants an IR blaster that can also react to room temperature, for example auto-starting an AC or mini-split, at a lower price and with a better track record.
Who should buy the Moes RF IR Universal Remote Controller?
Buyers who specifically need RF (radio) device control alongside IR and do not need a built-in temperature or humidity sensor.
