All of the above, An internet connected, programmable thermostat with buttons, a serial connection, and auto-sensing capability, using an Arduino or a Raspberry Pi to control it, is such a unique idea that it may be a marketable item by SH, assuming it works as good as or better than anything commercially available for the same money.
A few prototypes, maybe a fail situation or two, plus lots of real-time testing should allow SH to produce a very efficient and cost-effective device for use by SH. It it works really well, and can be produced in small quantities at a reasonable price, maybe SH could sell it to others and make some much needed cash to help run the operation. I hope there is nothing in the SH policy manual that prohibits SH from making and selling a product for the benefit of the organization. Count me in as a volunteer worker bee for the project. I would be happy to help, as long it does not involve algebra.
