Reply to comment by MavDrake in For those of you with RI energy... get your nest while it's on sale. by MavDrake

Lol have o problem with the G's, G men within reason, the privacy thing is a low issue. I don't like not being in control but whatever. My phone freezes at least once a day. I don't need that in a thermostat. I'm also heat sensitive. I can't do too cold so any temp restrictions on top heat is bad, and frankly I grew up with a wood burning stove. A set on top thermostat is ok by me. I'm not hesitant to change I just want it to actually work.

My pops has had his nest for 3 years or so... 0 issues and he loves it. He says it's saved him money and great for when he's traveling.

Granted he's got his home smart teched out. From solar pannels with battery backup to a smart garage door opener.

The panels are great.. he's paid them off and free sailing now. No bills year round and he even runs his hot tub year round.

He does use oil for heat but that's his next thing to tackle.
