Hi petro,
thanks, but not one of this lines is working.
There is no messagee about any error, just had result 'false' and so do the wrong thing.
BUT: Asking me, that in the variable it needs an 'climate' device triggers more investigation. Whenever I used the variable in my blueprint to carry out some action, the AC box do it. For me: "Content of this variable correct". But the Studio server shows some message which I ignored (as somebody told me, that this messages were not reliable)
I immediately checked the configuration.yaml and there is the 'climate-line'.

I use some PID thermostates for the heating (not AC boxes) system since about 2 years without any problems. And all my automations for AC boxes without blueprints working fine. And some functions of the AC boxes in blueprints working fine (Switching On/Off, setting target temperature ...) only checking the state doesn't work out.
Here the whole yaml for SirGoodEnough, but it is much more than the part causing the problems:

Maybe one can show me (newbee to blueprints) some better solution for some lines of code. And keep in mind, I do lot of tests to overcome this problem.
Thanks for helping out.
