Hi. Thermostats are expensive. I currently have this one, at my apartment.

I would like to replace it with one that connects to HA. First, is this a good idea since I’m in an apartment? I’ll obviously keep the current one, and put it back before leaving. Second, what’s a good one that is either open source or at least non internet based (but still works on HA)?

Thanks!

      There’s a couple zigbee thermostats on Amazon if you search that. None that i have used personally so I don’t have any recommendations. There is a super cheap Tuya one, but i haven’t had a ton of luck with Tuya zigbee devices being very good. YMMV
