Looking for a Thread 2.4 GHz transmitter to control a light (lemmus.org)

Hello people of Lemmy,

I have a light bar for my monitor and it has a remote that (I assume) uses a 2.4 GHz radio. Do you have any recommendations for a Thread-enabled transmitter so I can control it from HASS?

What makes you think a remote uses 2.4ghz? And why would a thread enabled radio help with that?

Most remotes are either IR or 433mhz. Both have multiple options for controlling from Home Assistant.

Can you post a listing for the device you're trying to control?

The Amazon listing shows 2.4GHz in the last image
