Ecobee Sensors showing extended place values after decimal point

Configuration
1

Since the last update my Ecobee room sensors are extending the value after the decimal point by around 14 places.

Example:

Sowing:
73.75999999999999

Instead of:
73.7

Curious if this is related to the change from C/F to Metric/Imperial

2

Thatā€™s strange, mine are only showing 1 decimal place per usual. Running latest dev.

3

Mine fluctuates, sometimes it will only show 1 decimal place, other times it throws out a bunch. Curious as to if Ecobee sends raw data with that many decimal places and it just isnā€™t rounding on the HA side.

Now Iā€™ve always had two for each sensor since I have it tied into Wink and Wink also reports those, but Iā€™ve kept those hidden since day one. Under dev tools the Wink versions donā€™t show that many decimal places, or at least what I still assume is the Wink version. They were always the _2 unless something change recently.

4

Iā€™ve seen this with ZWave temperature sensors too, and it has been happening for many releases so I guess it isnā€™t related to the recent change.

5

Mine just started happening and Iā€™ve had the Ecobee tied in since day one. Just odd and a UI annoyance more than anything. Doesnā€™t really break anything I have setup.

6

Could be different to my bug - I usually get something like 78.000000000001

7

I have seen this once in the platform sun, where temperature was very long with many digits after the decimal point. I observed this only after update to 0.26.1 not sure though thatā€™s the root cause.
Hope this helps

8

Just added an ecobee around v0.25 and the first time I saw this was two days ago after upgrading. But it seems to be fine today. Will keep an eye on it.

9

Mine is fairly random, sometimes it shows fine, then randomly throughout the day 14 digits past the decimal. I have a feeling it was a bug introduced with one of the 0.26.X releases.

Here is mine I see it again.

11

I havenā€™t seen it on weather, are you using Yahoo weather? I still use forecast at the moment.

I see it now on one of my sensors:

12

I am using YR component for weather

13

My Nest thermostat is showing this:

77.5399999999999999999

seems to have started after the 26.x update.

14

I did a quick look and didnā€™t see an issue opened so I went ahead and created one

15

I donā€™t know what the state is of this issue (i still see it open on Github with little or no activity), but I just wanted to infor, you that I have the same issue in my setup.
HASS 0.33.3
running native on a Synology DS411j (actually a tweaked DS409 which identifies himself as a DS411j)

I have the issue in
WeahterUnderground
Speedtest
Synology DSM Monitor

Intermittently (but very often), some sensors have 15 decimal digits.
