Sounds neat. So long as that external thermometer is not too close to the cold air stream, its bound to give better readings than the built in one.

What i’m looking to build is a system that integrates automatic temperature adjustements for winter time variable rates and presence detection. The horrible crap I have made with the basic yaml automation ignore each other, which lead to wrong behavior in some (common) situations. I could solve it with an extra state variable, but it would still be full of duplicate of hardcoded values in the two automations…

I’m unsure how to organise my pyscript code to meet my goal in a clean and extensible way. I wish i could take a look at someone else’s work.
