Please see screenshot. A few days ago a thermometer stopped reporting. apparently at full battery.
The HA is on all the time, not reacting to the fact that the sensor does not provide any more updates, or is offline.
How can we catch situations like this? I imagine there may be some internal monitoring and notification system that can be enabled? - and that features like thermostat should catch it and have a default state (like: if no update for xx minutes, turn off)

Hi, that system can be made manually, I think, via detection of unknown or unavailable state. But it would be a nice integrated feature, totally agree with that

trigger: if entity/device changes to unavailable or unknown for XXX seconds/minutes > action: turn off entity. Also you might want to install Spook (on HACS i think) , wich delivers more actions to perform.
