• But don’t be afraid to discard it since Sense keeps around the data.

Sense vs. Ecobee: Round II

So now that I have cleaned up my incoming data a little, I’m going to bring my AC compressor detections into the mix while keeping my smartplug based blower fan detections for both furnaces. One of my goals is to see which of my Sense AC compressor detections reliably line up with corresponding Ecobee run time commands. But it’s a little tricky because: I had one Sense runtime detection, AC, against my old compressors - Detections started showing up on April 7, one day after I installed the ne…
