I am not the style of man to get the first new gadget that’s on the market.
My theory is, I care about to make sure that it is something that would be useful for me before I make the purchase! Plus, I would care about to make sure that all the kinks are worked out before I jump on board.
I have seen it way too several times where someone I knew bought a new gadget and had to return it because it malfunctioned. So, due to that, I am regularly cautious. Some years ago, a neighbor of mine told me about smart thermostats and at the time, I was not interested in them at all. I was living in a small condo, and I didn’t know that having a smart thermostat made sense for that space. Plus, my digital thermostat worked superb and my energy bill was unquestionably low. However, now that I am in a greater space, I am considering getting the smart thermostat. Mostly because I live alone and there are rooms in my apartment that are regularly empty. For example, I have a guest room that only gets used when I have friends or family in town. So, there is no need to keep that room cool all day or all evening long. So, I see the benefits of having a smart thermostat, not only would it conserve energy, but it would save money on my utility bill. And I know by now, they have worked out all the kinks and the technology has entirely improved since they first came out on the market. I sited my order for the thermostat, now I just hope that I can install it myself.
