SRVs never read correct room temp when on, obviously they are right next to radiator, but find it annoying if you do offset the temp normally by 3 degrees, when the radiators aren't on the actual and what should be correct room temp is 3 degrees out! SRVs our poor design in my opinion for the price and no way am I buying temp sensors for each room! Rant over

    I found using the offset helped to some extent but also repeated boiler cycling continued as below. The issue completely resolved when I put add on thermostats in each room. I appreciate the cost could be significant, particularly for large setups.

    The most frustrating part to me is that those proper temperature sensors are so expensive and big, while I have the temperature information available from simple devices cobbled together from an esp-board & a 'one-wire'-sensor, and from a hacked co2-meter all ready to supply to the system, if only they would allow such external input via 'virtual thermostat'.
    One could easily wire up the old on/off thermostats that tado replaced as 'heat requestors' too; a nicer way 'in' other than the hack of messing with the offsets as people are doing now would be extremely welcome.
