Mysa for Baseboards comes in two versions: V2 and Lite. Both control your electric baseboard, convection, fan-forced, or radiant heaters — V2 includes additional features for users who want more control and insight into their heating.

  • Both include: Scheduling & Shortcuts, Geofencing, Smart Home (Alexa, Google, HomeKit)

  • V2 only: Energy Charting, Zones, Saved Schedules, Smart Alerts, Early On (pre-heat), Humidity Sensor, Touch Controls, Adaptive Display

  • Lite only: Physical Buttons

Features on Both Versions

  • Remote control from the Mysa app

  • Custom scheduling (up to 56 events per week)

  • Shortcuts (Home, Away, Vacation)

  • Geofencing (auto home/away based on your phone location)

  • Apple HomeKit, Google Home, and Amazon Alexa integration

  • Heater type selection (Baseboard, Fan-forced, Radiant)

  • App-adjustable display brightness

  • Wi-Fi connected (2.4 GHz network required), no hub required

V2-Only Features

  • Zones — group thermostats to control an entire area together

  • Saved Schedules — save and apply schedules across multiple thermostats

  • Smart Alerts — get notified if temperature or humidity goes outside your set range

  • Energy Charting — track heating costs over time

  • Early On — pre-heats 30 minutes before scheduled temperature changes

  • Humidity Sensor — monitor room humidity in the app

Hardware Differences

V2:

  • Touch-sensitive controls (illuminated)

  • Adaptive brightness — display adjusts to room lighting

  • Wake-on-approach — display lights up as you walk toward it

  • Built-in humidity sensor

Lite:

  • Physical button controls

  • App-adjustable brightness (no auto-adjust)

Which Should You Choose?

Choose Lite for spaces like:

  • "Hobby" spaces — areas that are in use but don't follow a predictable schedule (workshop, craft room, home gym)

  • Secondary spaces — rooms used less frequently or for shorter periods (guest rooms, storage/laundry rooms, hallways)

  • Income-generating spaces — rooms that generate income for the owner but aren't lived in by them (vacation and/or long-term rentals)

Choose V2 for spaces like:

  • High-traffic, open living spaces (e.g. family room) — keep loved ones perfectly cozy, customize schedules to save money, group thermostats into zones, track detailed energy use

  • Main bedrooms — create energy-saving schedules for day and night, keep a baby's room at a safe consistent temperature, adjust heat without leaving bed

  • Personal vacation homes — adjust temperature remotely for a cozy arrival, monitor humidity and temperature while away, share access with loved ones

By feature, choose V2 if you want:

  • Energy tracking to monitor heating costs

  • Zones to control multiple thermostats together

  • Alerts when temperature or humidity is out of range

  • Rooms pre-heated before your schedule starts

  • A sleek touch interface with adaptive display

By feature, choose Lite if you want:

  • A budget-friendly smart thermostat

  • Basic scheduling, shortcuts, and geofencing

  • Smart home voice control (Alexa, Google, HomeKit)

  • Physical buttons instead of touch controls

Note: Both versions work with the same heater types and wiring. The only differences are features and hardware controls.
