Is this of interest to you?
Nice little item, could be very handy!
From one of the reviews:
Awesome device which allowed me to ditch the troublesome HDMI CEC standard for controlling tv devices. Using this unit with Zigbee2MQTT / mosquito / Home Assistant with no issues. Identifies as Tuya ZS06.

Watching this one.
Count me in as interested -- this could be neat.
Sorry, I am not interested on this device at this time, I have already planned probably at least 3 months of work for this project here .. : )
There is a working solution in Hubitat for IR blasters : Broadlink IR/RF remotes integration (RM3 Mini, RM Pro, RM4 Mini/Pro)
It works excellently, I am controlling 2 x Fujitsu Air Conditioners and one old Sony TV in 3 different rooms using 2 x Broadlink RM3 and RM4 Pro.
Adding one more remote, which is small and battery-powered and so it can be kept anywhere. And MOES is an excellent Chinese brand for reliability.

If anyone plans to add driver for this, please update here
I purchased the Tuya zs06 zigbee IR Blaster and cant use it because there is no driver for it. Can someone please make a driver for the Tuya zs06 zigbee IR Blaster, that would be great so it is not just a brick on my desk. https://a.aliexpress.com/_ms0oS7k
Any updates?
I will not promise if or when, but I may develop a driver for Tuya ZS06.
Although I'm not fond of Wi-Fi devices for home automation, I would use a Broadlink RM4 Pro since an integration is available. I even bought one to test, but for some reasons I have decided to turn off my Wi-Fi's 2.4GHz band (potential Zigbee interference being the main one), and it is unremarkable how many "modern" devices don't support 5GHz Wi-Fi, Broadlinks included.
Another issue that I had was that I tested the RM4 Pro for a couple of weeks (with it's own app, without connecting to Hubitat) then I've left it off for a month in a drawer and when I turned it on again it wouldn't connect to my Wi-Fi.
I have wasted 2h of my life reconfiguring the device's network just to find out that all my saved IR/RF codes were gone. So I even if I was willing to keep 2.4GHz enabled, I don't trust this device.
Hi @eduardo ,
There is already a driver for the Tuya IR blasters, written by @sean.anastasi :
It’s a shame that these can’t operate in reverse. I have a couple of really nice and expensive IR universal remotes and would love to be able to trigger Hubitat scenes and automations from it.
Anybody know of Drivers for Tuya that are "cloud free" ?
All of @kkossev for Tuya zigbee devices are cloud independent. As is the driver for the Tuya IR blaster described in this thread.
Anybody tried either of these?
Couldn’t post Amazon link, but it’s available there also.
Models UFO-R11 and UFO-R4Z
Kind of looks the same (AliExpress ID criteria ) as the one in this thread...
