Thermostat

There are no good thermostats available out there. At least by
my standards. Nest looks cool (nest.com) but it’s expensive, scarce, and overkill.

The perfect thermostat for me (I live in Eastern Canada) would have 3 settings: Off, 15°C, and 20°C. Not sure if it’s a single dial with those 3 options, or a dial with the 2 temperatures and a discrete on/off switch on the side. My preference would be a single 2 position dial that’s also a push button.

I just want to set it low when the room won’t be used for an extended period (e.g. at night or when we’re away) and high otherwise. When it’s warm out I’ll turn it off.

I don’t want to be able to fine tune the temperature, program a schedule, have it connect to the internet, or do motion sensing. 100% manual and “dumb”.

Make that thermostat and I’ll buy 5.
