Derivative Helper Sensor Doesn't Update Time Unit Label When Time Unit Changed

[duane-nepa]

The problem

I created a derivative helper sensor based on a temperature sensor and selected a time unit of minutes initially. Then after seeing some of the data decided that a time unit of hours would be better. Changed the time unit to hours. But the sensor still reports °F/min vice °F/hr.

I created another derivative helper sensor based on another temperature sensor with a time unit of hours. It properly reports °F/hr.

Not really that big a deal but would still be nice to get it fixed when working on this part again.

I have the same problem

[Jeppedy]

Ditto here. I even tried deleting and recreating, but if I use the same ID, it seems to pick up the old UOM
