How to use

1. Add sensor configuration. It can be a connected temperature sensor or home assistant provided sensor. For example:

sensor:
  # External temperature sensor from Home Assistant 
  - platform: homeassistant
    id: current_temperature
    entity_id: ${temperature_sensor}

2. Add climate component, set platform as electra_ac, set sensor_id and pin number for IR LED.

climate:
  - platform: electra_ac
    sensor_id: current_temperature # Sensor ID with the current temperature
    pin: 3 # Pin with IR led
    name: "Electra A/C"
