IR Remote driver enables sending IR codes through an IR transmitter and receiving them through an IR receiver via [IRremoteESP8266 library](https://github.com/crankyoldgit/IRremoteESP8266).
A [specialized version of Tasmota](Tasmota-IR) can be compiled which supports almost all of the IR protocols available in the [`IRremoteESP8266` library](https://github.com/crankyoldgit/IRremoteESP8266).
Most builds support only most common IR protocols, but [tasmota-ir.bin](Tasmota-IR) supports almost all protocols available in the IRremoteESP8266 library.
# IR Transmitter
The prebuilt transmitter modules have a weak IR LED, effective transmit distance is really short. If you need range it is best to build your own.
The prebuilt transmitter modules have a weak IR LED, thus effective transmit distance is really short. If you need range it is best to build your own. For the LED we recommend [TSAL6400](https://t.ly/8DX7N) for best performance.
