So ? Issue closed with new version ? Some heating when temperature is 0.2 C above the setpoint is normal (deltamax parameter in the code), due to the thermal inertia factored by the plugin. But if the heating is then at 100%, it may either be that your plugin is still « young » in its learning curve or that your cycle time (30 minutes from your log) is too short. Closing this as this is more a topic for the forum (help from the user community) than an issue with the code in my view.
