If there's a market for this, then why can't I even buy a thermostat with a timer on it to turn the temperature down at night and up in the morning? The most basic home automation, which could have been built cheaply 30 years ago, is still, if available at all, so rare that I've never seen it.
What country do you live in? That thermostat technology has been ubiquitous in the US for new construction for many years. Granted, older buildings tend to have the thermostats opportunistically replaced, but it has been a lot of years and a couple places since I didn't live in a place with this type of thermostat.
Apparently, the future has arrived and just is not evenly distributed. J. Andrew Rogers ----- This list is sponsored by AGIRI: http://www.agiri.org/email To unsubscribe or change your options, please go to: http://v2.listbox.com/member/?list_id=303
