It’s very simple device. You can set the temperature in #HomeAssistant or on the device with the wheel.

The temperature sensor is not exposed as sensor, so I had to create a helper in HA.

We will see how it’s going to operate during winter, but I have already ordered standalone temperature and humidity sensors for each room to make it more accurate.

#SmartHome update!

I’ve added yet another #Zigbee device to the list (it’s now 34 devices)…

This time, I’ve got one #Sonoff #TRV #thermostat to test it out as a replacement for outdated bluetooth #Eve #EveEnergy…

A few things come to ming after 2 days:

- the valve adapters are way better than Eve’s
- it’s chunky
- takes 3 batteries

It was easy enough to set up and pair - works with #ZHA. The display is clear (comes out blue only on photos, it’s white).

Oh great 🙄, another life-changing article about a thermostat! Just what the world needed – a riveting tale of room temperature control. Next, we'll get a memoir on the existential crisis of choosing the perfect light bulb. 💡😴
