Kasa KE100 - unable to maintain temperature, works only as fully open or closed
Kasa KE100 - unable to maintain temperature, works only as fully open or closed
Since my original thread was closed, and TP-link still does not want to fix this..... the heating season is coming, and my KE100 starts to annoy me again.
They are unable to stabilize and control the temperature gradually. I don't know if there were any changes in that regard in last two updates, but they did not help.
If I set a temperature in my bathroom to 25 it will reach 24.3 and close. WHY?!
When my bedroom needs radiators to be open to say 20% to maintain temperature, it closes entirely at ~22.0. Then it gets cold and it panics again and opens 100% for 5 minutes just to shut down again.
@Wayne-TP Can TP-Link finally FIX this?! Or get Chat-GPT to fix it. Or let us fix it by allowing us to run custom firmware.
To people involved in my previous thread: @KariBenz @Matteo_T @Inori @Jirinak82 @Karel_S @DJY - did you get any response from the support? Do you also see the issue is not solved? Did you replace the KE100 with another product?

@Wayne-TP I have now installed additional KH100 hub, that is closer to these valves (so the temp sensor and these 2-3 closest vales are connected to the new hub)
It seems they are in sync now, at least couple of times I have checked, the temperature reading was spot on on both valves and the temp sensor.
It seems that in order to cover my flat (single floor, 140sqm) with perfect signal strength I would need 3 hubs.
The overall temperature stability and ability to maintain a "smooth" temp reading overnight is something that remains an issue anyway.
I believe its "easier" for these valves to work when there is a higher heating demand, and its easier for them to find the right open state (they dont fully clsoe that often).
@Maciej54 Have you relocated this temp sensor too? So both the sensor and the valves are now closer to the hub, right?
