puu's MitsuRunner setup

Notable changes to the original SW and HW:

  • Two additional Dallas sensors in heat exchanger pipes (used for research and as spare parts)
  • Current clamp sensor monitoring input power of the heat pump
  • Variable temperature delta threshold to start defrosting:
    • if (input) power < 500W, threshold = 4
    • if 900W ⇐ power < 1000W, threshold = 5
    • if power >= 1000W, threshold = 6
