Smart thermostatic radiator valves.

I am about to install smart thermostatic radiator valves. Link to home variant, however my thermostat controller is hive. My question is how will they interact. If thermostat is set at 21 degrees and the valve is set at 16 degrees obviously two different rooms which has primacy. My own thought is to set thermostat at the highest radiator valve temperature.
I will be allowing two radiators to run unchecked. Hope this makes sense.

Trying to connect 130 Honeywell WiFi thermostats to a Home Assistant

Hello! Wondering how many developer accounts I will need to connect 130 t5 thermostats to a Home Assistant Core (version 2026.9.3). The issue is the 429 error because it seems the Resideo app (cloud) wants to refresh all the devices on the account every time you adjust one. These devices are in individual homes. I need to update the temperature before guests arrive daily (about 7 homes on average and then adjust after guests leave (also about 7 daily) and then check and update only vacant homes (about 30 vacant per day on average to check and maybe 3 to update) that aren’t still in their vacant temperature condition. Looking for an expert that can help me for $$.

Looking for thermostat recommendations

Hi. Thanks for reading this.

My parents are having a terrible time with their thermostat, and I think this is the fourth one we've tried.

I really wish I had grabbed the old one off the wall at their last house, because they understood it.

But here's what I'm looking for:

A very simple, non-programmable thermostat with auto-changeover that uses only one temperature setpoint and figures out the deadband for itself. They are really struggling with theirs to get the two deadband temperatures set. The one at their old house only had a single temperature setting in auto mode, and it would heat or cool without asking the homeowner to set multiple temperatures.

  1. Simple
  2. Non-programmable
  3. Auto changeover with one setpoint (thermostat figures out the deadband on its own)

Anyone have any ideas?

Thank you so much!
