Happy to use anything except matter/thread.

I have an ecobee which has been great, but they keep inching closer and closer to full subscription model. Would love something that's fully local.

In the US. Don't care about price as long as it works reliably.

ive just been using a custom solution with an atmega168, started it 2 years before home assistant even existed

~3 years ago, i slapped an mqtt client into it, and now HA can control everything

thermostat was the custom android app, because home-assistant didnt exist when i started things

btw, you would have to set-up a resideo account, wich is free, and only for configuring 1st time iirc. Never used app after that, all controlled in haos

I have a d1mini board flashed with espHome that has a temp/humidity sensor to send the values to HA. Then I have a sonoff relay flashed with espHome that's in parallel with my house thermostat. Then a generic thermostat in home assistant controls the entities. I use have the remote subscription from nabu casa so I can turn the heat up before I get home.

I've been using TOON v1 (Essent) for quite a few years now. And I'm very happy that I do. I've rooted it so it doesn't need any form of subscriptions. It also has a few Home Assistant capabilities, like a Home Assistant app and an integration in Home Assistant.

I've been modifying a couple of things, so it would respond a lot faster to my touch, because from factory, those devices are just terribly slow.

I've disabled a few services via command line (it's linux after all), root acces gives you the posibility to install an app store, add apps like home assistant, which lets you show states of entities and you'll be able to switch home assistant devices.

Next to being an awesome dashboard, it's also a thermostat and P1 meter.

The TOON v2 has more memory, which lets you run more apps on the dashboard.

I wouldn't trade this heavily pliable thermostat for anything else but a TOON v2. 🙂

For the sensor-side, it's just random ESPs with a temperature/air-pressure/moisture sensor and ESPHome. For actually controlling the radiators, I use a bunch of Tuya+Zigbee "smart" Thermostats
