Rob - we traded emails, but wanted to reply to this thread to capture in case it helps others.
1) I did not backup my HS folder as you clearly tell us to with every update ... I should have
2) The duplicate devices seem to be my problem. The old plugins would have a message would show up on the HAI plugin page something to the effect "plugin is loading refresh this screen in a few minutes". At .23 or .24 that behavior changed. The HAI plugin page shows all of the devices, thermostats, flags, etc, but they show disabled until the plugin initializes. I was enabling them, which caused a 2nd set to get created. Maybe this change in functionality was documented, but I did nto read the relase notes close enough to catch.
3) I "fixed" my celsius problem when I removed the plugin and deleted all of the HAI devices. Probably deleting the thermostats and recreating would have "fixed", but I had to do a clean wipe because of my multiple devices from enabling before the plugin initialized
I have stopped/started the HAI plugin several times and if I wait long enough the devices are all enabled and no duplicates. When I recreated the thermostats they came back in F vs. C
I am now editing my events, HSTocuh screens, unit descriptions, rescanning in Alexa, etc. Will take a few days, then I'll backup!
Hope this helps people to not make the same mistakes as me.
