[OpenTRV-interest] First impressions and questions

[Jason Pearce]

Hi,

Received my stats hub and valve earlier this month - thanks.

It's working :)

What do the =F lines signify ?

First Impressions
- It's big !! - for some reason, my impression from looking at the
opentrv/earth websites was that this would be smaller than it is
- It sounds a little noisey - I've just installed it in the bedroom to see
if it passes the test with my wife :)

Thoughts/questions
- How does occupancy work during the daytime when we have daylight ?
- If opentrv turns off one room because it isn't occupied, do we risk
draughts if one room becomes colder than another ?


Future - will the following be possible
- remote control of target temperature per TRV (will the stats hub become
two way) ?
- remote temperature/occupancy detector - some of my radiators are behind
furniture - not ideal, but affects the detection of the room temperature

If it passes the wife noise acceptance test, when might more valves become
available :)

Regards,
Jason
