The easy way is to get a Nabu Casa subscription. That way you can expose your HA lights, switches, etc to Alexa and just go from there. It's a straightforward and generally frustration free way to do it.

What make are your TRVs? I have a Hive set up and the main obstacle for me was ensuring the boiler turned on when the TRVs were turned on

Really not interested in paying a subscription. Trying to get away from all that.

Anyone recommend a good tablet to use for a dashboard. One that actually powers off the external power and isn't prone to exploding batteries. Cheap is good :)

@Steeps sourced a Lenovo tablet that had an office meeting scheduler edition, which runs off USB-C and no battery. I want to say it was a Lenovo K10?

I get that, I really do. However, after spending far, far too much time reading complicated solutions that I couldn’t get working, the Nabu Casa subscription just let things work with minimal fuss. Plus it’s supporting the development of HA which made payment a lot easier. It’s barely a pint a month…
