i got one of these through the CoolNYC program and would love to find a way to automate it!

Thinkeco is notoriously stingy with their proprietary API, only offering it to big name companies.
(For example utility companies.)

I’d imagine the only way to implement this would be through a clunky curl based interface with their website, which may be difficult to maintain.

That being said, I own one of these devices, and plan to attempt to implement this as soon as I get my openhab configuration migrated to home assistant!

Any tips from any curl gurus would be greatly appreciated!

Did you ever have any luck with this? I’d love to use it, even if just to switch it on / off.

Unfortunately no, they refused to open the API.

I managed to get it working myself. I wrote a post about it here.

I was looking for integration for Google home and couldn’t find anything so realized to do myself.

Just finished setup with gbridge (https://about.gbridge.io/) + Node Red using API from the mobile app.

If anyone would need I added sample draft flow to the github: https://github.com/sashas777/SmartAC_ThinkEco_GoogleHome/tree/master
