Is the Toon thermostat usable in HA without an Eneco-contract ?
No only when you rooted the toon device. And that is pretty painfull Reading the instructions and in some cases not even possible.
I mean in theory it is possible but this python module is written to talk against the web services of eneco which comes with an eneco subscription.
I tonight I will double check the latest version on my system to sync it with github. I remember fixing the gas unknown issue (it was a typo in the python script).
Is this still an issue?
Ok, but apart from HA integration: as a smart thermostat it is usable without a subscription ?
Sorry I was offline on this topic for a long time. I’m still wanting/planning to do some API development on the toon API for unrooted devices. I’m no programmer so all things I will come across will take a lot of time. Or in case someone else is able to do this?
Things to do:
- create a python module to connect to the toon API instead of web services. Documentation on eneco API page and this toon python module should be enough to understand and develop it.
- create a custom module for hass and test it in different situations
- if the custom module works submit it as a new component to the hass github
welcome back 
BTW I wouldn’t mind leaving my Toon rooted and pay for monthly fee but it would help a lot when we can talk via the API from HASS.
Yes, it would be nice to use the Eneco Toon Api! Then we can use a lot more information from the Toon. Maybe also use alexa with it. On the website from the Toon api there is a example of this.
The code examples are in C# and JAVA. And the example application is nodeJS. We need to translate that into python. Anyone who can do that with ease is our hero 
The example application: https://github.com/quby-energy/ToonDemoApplication
I have a ‘bigger’ issue than this one.
I shut down the pi and started it a few days later but now I keep getting the message “Home Assistant had trouble
connecting to the server.”.
I didn’t change anything to the configs before shutting it down or after restarting it so I can’t do anything at this moment.

My Python knowledge is zero 
Added this to my sensor.yaml but it doesn’t show anything.

Looking this morning the items where added but no values whatsoever

Is this something that could speed up your progress on this ?
No it is not. You can use it as a thermostat, but you can’t set up programs and can’t read usage values for electricity and gas. Without subscription Toon is just a very large dumb touchscreen thermostat.
Ok, I might take this one up but it’s maybe going to take a while. I’ve fooled around with Python before but my programming skills are rusty. This is quite a large integration to pick up for a first time project in HA, but on the other hand getting Toon to work properly, learning Python again and contributing to the community are all high on my wishlist So just saying this might be too much to handle, but I’m willing to give it a try!
Anyone else who’s wanting to help? Let’s turn Toon into a proper working component and get it featured on the website!

I bought a second-hand Toon last week. I can use the schedules (programs), it shows the actual usage gas & power (thru the P1 adapter), it shows weather and traffic info and I can even control my Hue lights. The only thing I can’t use is the Toon app because I don’t have an account. So it’s fully functional apart from the remote control thru the Toon-app.
I am not an Eneco customer nor do I have a contract.
Ok, sounds good I’m not entirely sure now, I got a Toon with the house I bought a year ago and remember getting a subscription right away because we couldn’t get much working on it. But it’s been a while, I’m no sure. If you can get some HA integration working you probably don’t need the subscription at all
I also don’t have a contract with Eneco but I want to control my Hue Lights and get weather and traffic info too. Could you explain how to setup?
There wasn’t very much to setup. I just plugged it in and connected the P1 adapter to my “slimmemeter” using a (unmodified) rj11-splitter. The Hue-settings are under the settings-menu. It should auto-discover your bridge (it wil also discover your emulated-hue/HA-bridge) and it will tiles for al lights and scenes. For weather and traffic I only had to change the location.
@piotr I did exactly what you suggested but Toon doesn’t auto-discover. I don’t see tiles for the HUE lights and scenes at all.
Did you factory-reset your toon ? I didn’t, Maybe the subscription of the previous owner is still active. We’ll see how long it lasts. (I’ll try blocking internet-access for the Toon and see if it keeps all the functions).
