In this video I build a self hosted smart central heating control system using a Moes BHT-002 Zigbee Thermostat connected to Node-RED using Zigbee2MQTT. We will take a full look at the thermostat hardware including a teardown, install it and then show it working over MQTT and within Node-RED including the Node-RED dashboard I've built.
