### Ecowitt support is coming in the next major release
As of April 11, 2026, Ecowitt stations are supported in the pre-release version
[v2.0.0pre1](https://github.com/schizza/SWS-12500-custom-component/releases/tag/v2.0.0pre1).
You can download this pre-release in HACS under `target version`, where you can pick the exact
version of the integration. Please be aware that this pre-release is really for testing
purposes only.

### In the next major release, I plan to rename the integration, as its current name no longer reflects its original purpose. The integration was initially developed primarily for the SWS12500 station, but it already supports other weather stations as well (e.g., Bresser, Garni, and others). Support for Ecowitt stations will also be added in the future, so the current name has become misleading. This information will be provided via an update, and Im also planning to offer a full data migration from the existing integration to the new one, so will not lose any of historical data.
- The transition date hasnt been set yet, but its currently expected to happen within the next ~23 months. At the moment, Im working on a full refactor and general code cleanup. Looking further ahead, the goal is to have the integration fully incorporated into Home Assistant as a native component—meaning it wont need to be installed via HACS, but will become part of the official Home Assistant distribution.
- Im also looking for someone who owns an Ecowitt weather station and would be willing to help with testing the integration for these devices.
