What is it about AC that makes it impossible to control?

I live in New Zealand where we pretend that it’s never particularly cold or particularly hot. This might be a factor in how sloppy all the installs seem to be.

Nothing; there is something about my AC and the badly hand-assembled ESP8266 and IR transmitter I made that doesn't work.

I was able to record/playback fujitsu mini-split commands using a simple wemos d1 IR shield + wemos d1 mini (esp8266) a few years ago.
