Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The heater I am driving with the enclosure plugin is relatively high power. The heater is being turned on/off by a "temperature control" output which uses the BME280 temp readings to drive the system. The temperature is not read fast enough for my application, causing undesired temperature swings.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to be able to adjust the speed at which the temperature input setting is read, either in the GUI or as a configurable option within CLI. The desired selection would be seconds, or seconds and tenths of seconds (EX 1 second, or 1.5 seconds).

Describe alternatives you've considered
A different heater!
Overpowering the heater with a cooling fan.

Additional context
I think the first block of test covers it pretty well. If I could adjust the speed at which the temperature setting is read from the i2c bus (I'm using a BME280), then I'd be able to fix my issue because I'd set the temp reading to every second or two, instead of 8-10.

Thanks for everything you do - I love this plugin!
