Good news!
I have contacted Adax a few times about adding power entities to their HA integration. I told them that many HA users are waiting for this feature. I got this answer today: “API power integration will be launched earliest 2023 Q2”. I asked if the HA integration is included in this launch, and they answered “Yes”.
That’s good news! and it’s one thing off my wishlist… the other things being API control over the LED to switch off overnight and back on in the morning, and to fix the energy readings in the app which always records today’s usage against yesterday…
What did you exactly ask them? I also want to poke my local reseller since he said he will contact ADAX about any feature requests. I did not buy an ADAX heater yet but if there is proper homeassistant support I definitely will!
Is it right that the local setup only supports bluetooth and not wifi?
The local setup require bluetooth during the set up process but communicates over wifi when “paired” to HA
I use the local setup and it works fine with HA but you wont get the energy reading that you get when you use the cloud method
Hello purplekite44 and sorry for late answer.
I asked them to add energy support to their API and the HA integration. They answered “Earliest 2023 Q2”.
One other thing: If you connect locally you will not be able to use the Adax app. If you use the cloud method you can use both the Adax app and HA. That is what I do as long as the energy information exists only in the Adax app. As soon as the HA integration update is released I will switch to local mode.
It makes me wonder what energy information would be shared and how accurate it would be. A periodic sample? incremental counter ? by the minute? hour? day? so many questions…
Just be aware that the response from the cloud integration is VERY SLOW and sometimes even fails altogether. The API is not reliable…
If using the local integration do you get to know when the heater is on or off? So that one could predict the power consumption?
I second what you say about reliability… I logged a few reliability issues with Adax and provided HA logs which have been passed to the developers, but not heard much since. 
I also made an enhancement request to relax the API rate-limiting, but as there are cost and performance considerations to be taken into account I don’t expect Adax to improve in this area.
You can see if the heater is on, but you will not see if the heater is actually heating. So there is not way to calculate the consumpion
I tried adding Adax locally today, it just shows no heater found.
In using HA in a container with dbus routed to it, other Bluetooth integrations works.
No log available.
The way Im doing it is not with a Raditor but a a little floor Heater that is great for getting the heat out but not at all quite in doing do! But it works with HA and same for my over in the kitchen I open the door on it leave at the temp I like and its plugged in so when I tell it to turn on I have heat in the kitchen I did have to trick it though in the settings as they do not want you to do this for safety reasons!
Hi @Krekkon
Did you get this working? I want to do a similar thing with my Adax radiators. Basically I want to turn them on and set the temperature 21 degrees when motion is detected in the room and the room is below 15 degrees…
I have done the automation but I can only see how to set the mode for the Adax radiators to “Heat” I can’t see how to set a temperature. I am not where you put this code?
Also… I have a odd thing trying to control my Adax radiators from Homeasssitant. If I set the heating or change the temp it often doesn’t work the first time and I can see the values from the climate control card go back to “off” after a few seconds. I have to do it 2 or 3 times before I will kick in…
Anyone seen this?
How did you contact them? Maybe some more requests will increase priority 
I contacted Adax just a few days ago, and they say that their API now supports energy values! They also say that the Home Assistant integration is not their responsibility. We have to make a feature request here in the Home Assistant Community. I will do that in a couple of days.
The adax library used by HA has had energy support for a while…
https://github.com/Danielhiversen/pyAdax/commit/d701c9352389001604e44baa8ff89ae67f86a2f4
… and it has recently been included in the HA core adax component 
https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/102556
But that the HA component needs further changes to expose the energy sensors
So we are closer, but not quite there yet!
FYI: Daniel is the owner of the adax code in HA
I’m not sure if I’m off-topic here (if so, I’m sorry) but I have an Adax Neo Wifi/Bluetooth that I would like to pair in local-mode with my Home Assistant running on PI4B.
I can’t get it to pair; it immediately says it can’t find the heater.
Can it be the built-in bluetooth of the PI4B doesn’t support the Neo Wifi/Bluetooth? Do I need an external bluetooth dongle?
Any help is appreciated!
Following for updates
I have the same issue, however I’m trying to connect using an ESP32 bluetooth proxy. Also the logic of having to enter WIFI credentials to pair locally (bluetooth) eludes me. Maybe there is a local API but it is very quick to dispay “Heater not found”. Like it is not even searching. I have no Bluetooth dongle in my Home Assistant Yellow, that may be something the software assumes. I am in the middle of renovations so I do not know where my BT dongle is at the moment…
Bluetooth proxy is not supported
Bluetooth is only used during paring, afterwards it communicates over wifi
It probably never starts searching if you do not have Bluetooth device
