Stop in for a cup of coffee

My smart thermostat is interesting. If it doesn't detect motion and activity in the house it will change settings to "Away" mode.

This is nice except when I'm super busy in my office and don't emerge all day

Got down to 60°

Wouldn't it be nice, if the smart system would just ask?

Hey are you home? Wave your hand or something? Hey! I am going to make the house cold......I warned you...

I'll hit the real real hardware store near me and see what options they have Not sure what the thread is on it

I'm guessing 1/4 -20 or 5/16. But you know what happens when you guess.

Good Morning All!

Only time you have to worry about it is inside the dist.
I have most cams marked 5 to 19.

Morning!
Still no snow, and sunny today. More welding. Hope to get the bed floor channels done in the next couple days. And with any luck the outer wheel housings will be in tomorrow.

 

[toolmanmike]

Morning folks. Time to make some coffee.
