@Gruijter: Is it possible to change this name?

In Z2M, my temp/hum/press T1 sensors from Aqara report both “temperature” (= measured temperature) and “device\_temperature” (temperature of the sensor itself). Multiple Aqara T1(?) Devices report “device\_temperature” by the way.

```auto
{
    "battery": 26,
    "device_temperature": 23,
    "humidity": 51.45,
    "last_seen": "2025-06-14T08:17:40+02:00",
    "linkquality": 65,
    "power_outage_count": 15,
    "pressure": 1009.6,
    "temperature": 23.71,
    "voltage": 2889
}

```

Both enter Homey as “temperature”:

That’s just difficult, because you can’t distinguish one from the other:

All the more difficult, as “device\_temperature” is displayed much less accurately and much slower update:

Shouldn’t “device\_temperature” simply appear with the same name in Homey?
