The midea component is quite sure that 17 is the minimum. I don't know why that was done. Maybe your device is an exception?
Isn't the point that the minimum is configurable via min_temperature
?
When the climate component can support whatever range, then yes, you can adjust the visual range. But this component can't set temperature below 17 or above 30 and forces the visual range to match that. I'm guessing that's the usual range of the supported devices.
Ah, so it's an actual integration limitation.
That's a shame.
And that's with the climate integration itself, rather than the midea integration that sits on top of it?
Is there any point me looking into it/raising a PR to adjust it, or will it just get rejected because 17C is the norm?
It's a limitation of the midea component. If the underlying library and devices can support lower temperatures, then you could make a PR.
Thanks for the help/answers
The problem
I have an ESP dongle attached to my Bosch Air Conditioning unit, flashed with ESP Home and the following configuration:
The problem is, when trying to change the temperature of the unit (which can go to 16C) the UI resets back to 17C. The following screenshot shows that the slider has been moved to 16C, but the Target remains at 17C:
If I then refresh the page, the slider has moved back to the 17C position.
Note: The Air Conditioning unit does get set to 16C correctly, but for some reason the integration doesn't accept it.
This then means, if I wanted the target temperature to be 16C, I would need to turn it on and then set it to 16C each time. Not a massive problem, by any means, but I am still interested in whether I've done something wrong.
Which version of ESPHome has the issue?
2024.5.5
What type of installation are you using?
Docker
Which version of Home Assistant has the issue?
N/A - although this has knock on effects on HA also displaying the wrong temperature, the issue is ESPHome itself.
What platform are you using?
ESP8266
