Ok #homeautomation friends. I have a new wood burning fireplace. One of its features is a thermocouple thermometer in the catalytic converter. I鈥檓 supposed to use that temperature to help know when to engage the damper.

It has hard-wired leads that plug into the bottom of this device (that came with the stove). Fitting a new/additional thermometer to the fireplace is not realistic (I don鈥檛 think). But is there a device that can take these leads and can read the temperature? I want to add something to #homeassistant so I don鈥檛 have to look at the device and so I don鈥檛 have to keep replacing batteries in it.

I could hook up an ESP32 or similar with something going to a GPIO or whatever. But I don鈥檛 know where to start.

Any thoughts? Feel free to boost.
