#Any suggestions on smart thermostat that does not require cloud to integrate with HA
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
I am using 9 EVE Thermos (Matter over Thread). EVE doesn’t need the cloud and the complete EVE portfolio is ‘Works with HA’ certified. I bought them as HomeKit devices, upgraded them to Matter via the EVE app and now get OTA updates via HA.
Is this what you are looking for?
IMO this is not what you are looking for. 😃 You can’t control a fan with this device.
Those are super cool. I’m looking for something to control a central HVAC though
Enjoy year-round comfort and energy savings with the Meross smart thermostat! Featuring advanced Matter technology, this smart thermostat works seamlessly with Apple HomeKit, Alexa, Google Assistant, and SmartThings, enabling effortless voice and app control. It’s the ideal thermostat for house, ...
This looks like it supports matter over WiFi. Maybe I will try that
Curious to hear your feedback
Had my ecobee go offline for hours with the Google Cloud shenanigans yesterday
Hah, I will try to update. I’m undergoing a big overhaul now and may wait on the thermostat for a while. Still waiting on my sky connect to come in anyway
I still have not purchased, but for those who care about fan support it looks like they are working on it.
I just ordered a used one. Also still waiting on my matter dongle, but i will let everyone know how it goes.
So it works ok
I don’t need the dongle. Not sure what I was thinking. This is Matter, not Matter over thread
No fan control and the way the climate device is exposed it is hard to tell if it is actually running or not
If you use their lan addon instead it is easy to tell when the device is actually running. In particular I am using a bubble card
But their is talk on GitHub of them working to make their lan integration work better and also exposing the same entities over matter. If that happens it could probably be pretty good
Hoping to test the new firmware when it becomes
Available
Sounds like Matter growing pains
