Amazon Thermostat reports incorrect temperature

[Angelos59]

I am able to see echo temperature entities correctly. In the process of updating the integration to do this via checking the box to include devices connected via echo, I also got entity temperatures for the amazon thermostats. This was unexpected but good, the issue is that the temperature is reported incorrectly. I have five of these thermostats and they all do the same. All the echos, I have four report temperature correctly.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
This is not a request to report a problem but if possible to enhance the integration to report the correct temperature for the amazon thermostats.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I have multiple temperature sensors zigbee, echo, etc.

If you are able to do this also consider exposing the humidity reading on the amazon thermostat, if possible.

Thanks very much

I have observed this as well. It looks like it is converting the temperature from Celcius to Fahrenheit even though it is already in Fahrenheit.

I have the same problem. i got aqara thermostat and alexa covert my Celcius temperature in Fahrenheit . I dont know why. With old thermostat worked all well.

Thanks, looks like we'll need a PR to address this use case. It can't be tied to a locale setting or I think HA may have changed the default temperature scale.

Hello, Thanks for an answer. Do you need something from me ? Protocols or something else ? Thanks

The integration still reports the incorrect temperature for Amazon thermostats. It reports kelvin when Fahrenheit is checked.

I just wanted to chime in and say that this is happening to me as well. I'm in the US, and as such all of my Alexa devices and Amazon Thermostat are all set to use Fahrenheit. However, the Thermostat Temperature being reported through the Alexa Media Player shows as C, even though the temperature number is clearly in Fahrenheit.

In addition to showing a Fahrenheit temperature as Celsius, I have also noticed that the temperature from my Amazon Thermostat is being rounded down to the nearest whole number, despite setting the temperature's display precision to use decimal places. In my above screenshot, you can see the temperature is shown as 64.0, but the temperature of the Echo in the same room is 64.8. No matter what temperature it is in my home, the thermostat temperature always shows .0 for the decimal precision, i.e., the actual temperature could be anywhere between 64.1 and 64.9, and the thermostat temperature will always show as 0 decimal precision (64.0) in Home Assistant. This makes it difficult to create precise automations based on the thermostat temperature.
