Vaillant vSmart thermostat

I'm not homey user yet but this looks like a real good replacement for my Vera Edge.
I have a Vaillant heater and because of the e-bus system of Vaillant it was difficult to choose a smart thermostat without the use of Opentherm converter cards.
So I bought the Vaillant vSmart thermostat https://www.vaillant.be/consumenten/producten/vsmart-24000.nl_be.html
This is actually a rebranded Netatmo thermostat and also uses the API of Netatmo with an extra vaillant parameter.

I can't find any integrations of this thermostat in home automation controllers. Are there any plans to write an app for Homey for this thermostat?
I'm not a good programmer, and don't have a Homey yet B)  But if someone is interested in the API to write an app I can provide some java code which I got from someone who reverse engineered the api requests (thx Johan).
It would be really nice to integrate this thermostat into Homey.
Vaillant is a very popular brand in Belgium.

    Hallo,
    ik gebruik al een Homey en ik zou ook graag de Vaillant vSmart-app integreren in Homey. Als u een oplossing hebt dan ga ik die zeker ook gebruiken.

    I also have a Vaillant vSmart and it would be great to use it with homey!

    For the guys who are already have a vSmart thermostat, is the android vaillant app working ok for you? I always have troubles changing the temperature, I have to retry like 5 times.. The screen with the temperature charts always works instantly so the connection seems to be fine.. (on wifi and mobile).

    I noticed that IFTTT has support for vSmart (eRelax). I don't have a homey yet so I can't test what the possibilities are via IFTTT.
    Anyone who can test this and give feedback? It should be possible to set the thermostat to away when a certain flow is triggered. 


    thx for testing.

    Just tested it and it works fine. If you have a vSmart you can already test it by installing IFTTT on your smartphone and creating a few IFTTT vSmart applets. This way you can already see all the possibilities and try them out. With homey you can include any IFTTT action in your homey flow.

    Zimbra, thanks for testing and the feedback. Good to know that you can change the vSmart mode with Homey. Now just have to order a Homey and I can start migrating :D
