pros and cons of this integration versus adding as homekit device

[170bgrd]

Hi

Sorry if I'm posting in the wrong place.

I'm setting up home assistant for the first time. And setting up home assistant in my new home. I'm incredibly lucky and have got a fair bit of stuff that can be added. I want a supportable implementation so looking at how best to integrate everything.

I see I can add the neohub as either a homekit device or using your integration. Can I ask what the motivation was to create this integration versus using home kit integration? What are the other benefits?

I have 15 thermostats and so far one heatmiser socket.
4 of the thermostats have remote air sensors.

Hi @170bgrd - I responded to you in the community forums as I feel these type of questions/discussions are better suited there. Where GitHub Issues is to help the developer track issues/requests etc.

For anyone else who comes across this, the link to discussion is here https://community.home-assistant.io/t/heatmiser-neo-hub-support-ugly-and-work-in-progress/48/84?u=nickcj

I suggest this gets closed to clear the Issues list @MindrustUK
