🧪 2.11.0 Beta 8
Smart Preheat: the learned heating model is now kept
Found by @J0zefG in #17. The model that learns how fast your sauna heats up was never written to storage, so every Home Assistant restart threw it away and the estimate went back to the built-in starting values. This has been the case since 2.8.0.
- The model is now saved when a session ends and survives restarts. It starts learning from your next session; nothing from earlier sessions can be recovered.
- A cabin below 10 °C now gets a longer estimate. Until now, 0 °C was treated like 10 °C, so a cold outdoor sauna could be ready about 20–30 minutes late. Learning itself still starts at 10 °C, so this stretch uses the built-in starting values.
If you use Smart Preheat, planned start times will shift as the model learns your sauna and keeps what it learned. That is intended, but please report anything that looks clearly off.
Everything from Beta 1–7 is included — including the note on automations that use Power (Xenio).
