I bought a nest gen 2 thermostat to play with a open source project that revives old nest thermostats (https://nolongerevil.com/). Since I don't want to install it into the home, because it will be a toy. I was thinking of building a test rig using a arduino or esp32 to simulate a HVAC and indoor temperature. I'm IT guy, not a HVAC guy, I think this would be a good learning project. Any suggestions?

That's right around the melting point of some types of lead free solder.
