Orbit BHyve is a range of smart retic products that can be controlled by HA. I use their retic controller.
Second B-Hyve. I have had several in service for 2-3 years and they work great (outdoor reliability, battery life). I have them linked up on HA / HACS, but the standalone app for B-Hyve is already pretty full featured and I prefer it for scheduling.
They do really slam the hose valve open though…consider a hammer arrest or (or just put them on a length of leader hose to absorb the recoil).
