Instantaneous water heater?

Since several years there have been questions about integration of instantaneous water heaters e.g.:

Looking into Github today, one can find interface descriptions for a REST-API and a Modbus RTU interface of two devices from CLAGE:

There is one device with WLAN and a REST-API and another with Modbus RTU additionally. So in theory there should be two ways to integrate in HA:

  1. WLAN connection and using REST-API
  2. Connect Modbus RTU to a Modbus gateway and integrate the device by Modbus TCP.

I have one of these devices (ISX) and successfully tried the latter, using a Waveshare RS485 gateway and YAML provided with some patches.

So my question is: Does anybody in the meantime has any alternative way to integrate an instant water heater (preferably my ISX) in HA?

PS I would prefer a cloudless option.

Modbus RTU through Esphome devboard.
