Re: Gets gas consumption from the electrical energy of the gas boiler

I don't know much about gas boilers, but I highly doubt that the gas consumption for heating will have any direct relationship with the boiler's electricity consumption.
( electronics, power supply for some kind of burner servo drive )
But maybe if there is just an ON/OFF burner valve, it could be ...

Re: Upgrade from an old version (2021.1)

I just test uploaded a database from my production system on RPi2 from 2019 - version: 4.10717 to Ubuntu with Domoticz 2025.1
Everything seems OK, devices, scripts, even room plans.
I expected more trouble and I am very pleasantly surprised.
Big thanks to the author - programmer.

Re: [mysensors] puzzled by so tragic domoticz rain sensor

I think, Domoticz counters counts only integers.
Is 0.2mm integer?
You mus send 20 instead, I think.
You can also use a normal incremental counter where you adjust the units and divisors

Re: .switchOff() command switches switch on

With ESPeasy I do it very simply with rules.

Re: Is it possible to add Shelly 2PM GEN 3 to Domoticz?

I think, this Shelly suports scripting.
So why all this mqtt and node red?
Switching on and off works by direct call from Domoticz like all older ones.
And Shelly can send measured values ​​directly to Domoticz using a script running on it.

For example here is a part of my code for sending amount ...

Re: How can I add HikVision camera (problem with CORS)?

First - I see your address "/channels/1/pic..." and for me works "/channels/101/pic..."

Second - Hikvision in manual recommends using strong passwords, but beware, you cannot use some characters in the http address.

For example my own painful experience when testing stream with VLC. My password ...

Re: Lighting control - how do you guys do it?

I prefer communication between devices.
PIR detects movement and sends a command directly to light switch to temporarily turn on the light.
The light switch knows that it has received a command from the PIR sensor and therefore turns on the light for a certain time. It also sends the information ...

Re: Which floor heating thermostat works in Domoticz?

You can easy build it yourself.
I am using Sonoff Basic with 2 DS18B20 ( room and floor temp. ) running ESPeasy like standalone thermostat.
Setpoint is received from Domoticz, heating status and energy consumption are exported to Domoticz.
You can use Shelly1 too for that now.

Re: Which multiroom thermostat to choose?

I think, you must build your own thermostat.
All what you want can be done with Domoticz and ESPeasy rules for example.

Here is my solution - not so complex. I don't need hysteresis, not using home/away - only timers for setpoint etc
