Maybe your MQTT-server received some unknown messages - this would be also helpful for me. Again: I have tested this only with model BHT-002-GBLW. If you have another device, don't expect that this is working directly.

+#### Environments wthermostat / wthermostat-minimal / wthermostat-debug and bin.gz
+
+There are 3 environments:
+
+1. wthermostat: this is the default production environment.
+
+2. wthermostat-minimal: this is the minimal version. No MQTT and no Thermostat Support, meant for OTA Upgrading when standard is too small. After flashing minimal do an upgrade to normal.
+
+3. wthermostat-debug: this is the debug/development version.  DO NOT FLASH TO THERMOSTAT HARDWARE! There is debugging output to serial interface which will confuse Thermostat-MCU. Upload to USB-Connected development ESP8266 board (Node MCU or Wemos D1 Mini pro) and monitor the output in vscode/pio-monitor.
