Interesting use case, in fact the philosophy was to have a maximum of one feature of each type per device, this is a bit what is done on other home automation platforms, because behind the voice assistants (Alexa, Google Home), are not able to manage several features of the same type in the same device.

Here the problem is surely that a different type is missing: these are not really temperature sensors, it is really a heating device with 2 different features: measurement (this is a temperature sensor), and setpoint (which is not a sensor in the strict sense)

Thank you! :slight_smile: This is indeed the best way to access Gladys remotely, to have backups, etc… And this is what allows to support the project :slight_smile:
