Lol, pretty much what I suggested :D

Only difference is that I'd use an ESP, way too simple an application for a Pi. Also ESPHome makes it super simple to integrate with Home Assistant and only requires a fairly simple yaml file. Also ESPs are like $10 max

Oh lmao, I don't think I saw your post before I started writing mine! Clearly the best solution then!

ESP is a good call yeah, I think I just think Pi by default because I've got so many of the things lying around

Great minds think alike :P

You're very lucky then, they're super difficult to source nowadays and are so expensive.

Oh tell me about it, I've got a pi zero 2 on backorder from about a year and a half ago still.
