I ordered the Honeywell ZWSTAT to work with my Lynx 5100 alarm system. It arrived quickly and was easy to install and configure and the only issue i had was that i have a conventional 2 wire heat system with no common so this would not work unless i was able to supply it with the proper voltage. I did some research and found that if you order the Class II Transformer 24 Volt AC, 40 VA, UL/CSA Approved : "MGT-2440" you can run the leads to your C and RC and pull the jumper and your heat will go to feeds R and W.

this worked beautifully.... Do not buy the 2gig stat because it doesn't work with the Honeywell zwave at all.... junk!!! also it consumes the batteries so you need supplied power also...

Do get this! Otherwise the fan will run all the time that it has sun to run the solar roof fan. It was very easy to install and worth the few extra dollars.

It was a couple of weeks after we received this item that we had dry enough weather to actually install the Solar powered attic fan. It's working wonderfully well ... we have had 80 degree weather for several days now, and the house is not nearly as warm inside as it was before the installation. So........I give the product an A+.

Very simple installation. The length of the cable is fairly long, so I had to wrap it around itself so it wouldn't hit my attic floor.

This thermostat was unavailable for a long time unless you bought a two-pack. Once it finally came back I purchased it for my attic fan right away. It works perfectly and was quite easy to install. It hangs down into my attic but doesn't block anything. For tips on installing the attic fan check out the This Old House video they have where a similar one is put in.

The product is not good as advertised. It is good only for smaller rooms definitely not good for 1000sqft etc.

Even we try to put it in smaller rooms which about 300 Sqft and does work as expected but it is good when the door is closed. We can not feel the heat more than 5feet on maximum heat.

I really like this heater.

Purchased because this model has a humidifer chamber.

I am not sure if the electric bill will be less with using this versus my HVAC unit but will see soon.

I actually purchased 2 for the downstairs: master bedroom with open bath and one for the living room with open kitchen.

I woudl give it 5 stars but the only thing that I don't like much is the size. It is a bit big to fit in the room i wanted. It does however state the dimensions so just make sure you are confortable with the size. It is not heavy but bulky for the application I wanted. It heats quickly and works great. No complaints on performance.

Review of Johnson Controls Digital Thermostat Control Unit

Johnson Controls Digital Thermostat Control Unit
Customer Ratings: 5 stars
Buy Now
I use the thermostat to control the temperature in a chest freezer that I use for fermenting beer (35-55 F). The controller works great for this purpose. I also have a second one that I plan on using to operate a HERMS device for my mashing system. You can set the controller to operate a heater or cooling device but you must reposition "jumpers" inside the unit (not difficult but a pain if you plan on doing it often). If you want a unit that switches automatically betweem cooling and heating, you are better off with the more expensive Ranco controller.

This particular controller will allow you to set the target temperature (as either a closing or openning point), the number of degrees of variance from target before the unit turns on/off, a time delay before the unit is allowed to reactivate the device(great for extending the life of a freezer or fridge), power supply on/off option in the case of unit failure and options for using remote monitoring/controlling if you choose to upgrade.

For the money, it is the best value on the market. No wiring required, simply plug in the device to the controller and the controller into the wall. The Ranco offers more options if you prefer to wire your own device or you can go all out and use a Love or other commercial controller that is fully customizable but is best mounted into a control device panel. Check out for examples of what can be done with more sophisticated controller units.

Its easy to use...the manual makes it seem overly complicated.

SP: setpoint (for my purpose 67) the temperature you want the thing to try and maintain.

dIF: differential (1 to 30F, default = 5) I leave at default, this is the point + or from the setpoint temp (so 62 to 73 in my case.

ASd: anti-short cycle delay (0 to 12 minutes, default = 1)I set to 12 minutes, just to put the least amount of stress on the compressor.

I recommend it!

Using this for home brewing. Connected to a small chest freezer. It controlled my 7 gallon fermentation vessel as well as the corny kegs. Setting the thresholds could be easier but once you understand it works exactly as advertised.

Honest reviews on Johnson Controls Digital Thermostat Control Unit

I have been looking at sous vide water ovens for years now, but could just not bring myself to spend $500 or more on one. Then I discovered the Johnson Controls Control unit. I paired this unit with the Maxi-Matic MST-800V Elite Gourmet Large 8-1/2-Quart Slow Cooker, a Danesco Roasting Rack Oval 6x9 Inch Non-stick (which fits perfectly in the bottom of the slow cooker, and a Weber 6479 Grill Press (cast iron, but covered in enamel so it won't rust). The grill press is heavy enough to hold the vacuum sealed bag with meat in it down again against the roasting rack. I use a plastic twist tie to attach the temperature probe to the handle of the grill press for accurtate water temp measurement. The temp. contoller is very easy to change from cooling to heating and directions are easy to understand in the following youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=prbWgMY3c5c

I also purchased the Stainless Steel Toast Rack: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000LWVJHA/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

and the IRIS Stainless Steel Cutting Board Organizer / Napkin Holder

The toast holder or Cutting Board Organizer / Napkin Holder can be wired to the handle of the grill press sitting on the bottom of the crock pot and used to hold smaller individually sealed pieces of meat or steaks to keep them submerged in the bath and separated.

So for a total of $177.18, I got myself, what I think, is a very nice sous vide set up that can be adapted to a variety of sizes and pieces of meat or seafood.

Addendum: 7/18/2013

Used the sous vide for the first time this weekend and it's performance was stellar. I cooked a plain, old, run of the mill, chuck roast with nothing but salt and pepper on it. I cooked it at 142 degrees for 2 1/2 days. However, next time I need to reduce the temp some. When I took it out it was medium well and I prefer medium rare. It was just pink, but no red juices. I must say though, even though it was done more than I prefer, it was the best roast beef I have ever had, anywhere, anytime. You literally could eat this without teeth it was so tender. I cut mine in pieces and dipped it in steak sauce. It really rivaled a filet mignon. If you have the time and can plan ahead, this is the only way to cook meat. I am going to do a pork loin in the sous vide for pulled pork for a pot luck I have coming up next month.

Using to regulate the temp of my kegerater. Current refrigerator didnt have a digital thermostat just a dial from cold to coldest. This keeps the fridge/ kegerater exactly within the easy to program temp range. It could not work better. Would also work great for an in-wall AC unit.

3 thermostats later, I finally found the right one. This particular thermostat happens to be a replacement for an old Honeywell Chronostat. Honeywell's website doesn't list current replacements, but this thermostat controls the White-Rodgers zone control valve on our hot water heating system. Why it's so difficult to figure out what thermostat will work I don't know, but for a three wire system on a White-Rodgers zone valve, this one does the trick.

Way happy, the airconditioner tech was going to charge us much more than this to come out to the house and all we had to do is plug the new thermostat in and go...

Cheap Food Dehydrator, All Stainless Steel Commercial Grade 1200w

Customer Ratings: 2 stars

I saw a bad review on this product but I ordered it anyway. I figured they are all about the same and this was a good price. I was pleasantly surprised. The unit completed my first round of jerky in about half the time of my old round ronco. It also used only half the shelves, so next time I can do twice the amount of meat. I would give it five stars but I would have to wait to make sure it lasts.

All in all I would have to say no complaints.

To begin, there was absolutely no packing materials to protect this item. Just the shipping box, unit and parts. Upon removal, I found that the food drying area housing was dented on one side. Also, some of the wires forming the screen to enclose the fan/heating elements were not seated in their frame properly so my finger was stabbed. The shipping box itself did not seem damaged, so maybe the unit was already damaged.

I could not find stamps/markings on any of the components indicating they were stainless steel although by the weight the unit itself probably is. The racks look like every other regular rack I've ever seen that wasn't supposed to be stainless steel and I don't know how to tell for sure.

The latches to attach the heating component to the drying area do not hold very tightly but since it remains stationary during drying I don't see that it would be a problem.

I tested all of the buttons and they worked fine.

I decided to test with a food thermometer. I was able to squeeze all trays in even with the dent. I set it to 155 degrees and left it on about 45 minutes and it never reached over 132 degrees nearest the heating unit.

I pushed the on/off switch to turn it off with no result. The button was already broken after about 5 uses and wouldn't depress so I had to just unplug it.

Perhaps, this worked great and was damaged during transit but I can never know since the shipper made no attempt to protect my costly purchase.

Best Deals on Food Dehydrator, All Stainless Steel Commercial Grade 1200w

I am really disappointed with Amazon for allowing this product to be on their site. I have always been satisfied with Amazon products, but this dehydrator is such an total waste of time and such a piece of crap, that I can't imagine why they would want to associate their name with this product. I read the other reviews about shoddy packing and defective product and I was hoping that this was an anomaly, but unfortunately this is not the case. Packaging was nonexistent and even the taping on the outside of the box was minimal at best. The right hand latch was broken off, the panel was bent and warped, and worst of all the unit wouldn't turn on. It would power up, but the fan didn't work and the heater wouldn't come on. The price was right for a broken down piece of junk...let me repeat this....JUNK. I have never wrote a bad review, but if you think you might be one of the lucky ones that might get a good unit, think again, this company and their product is a joke. They obviously are hoping you won't send their junk back to them. Save your energy, (this unit is heavy), save your money, and save your time.

I bought this space heater after searching for something to quickly heat up my bedroom in the winter, so I wasnt running the whole house heater all evening. I have had this for 5 months now and it has worked flawlessly! The remote is super handy as well. From the remote you can turn the power on, turn swivel off and on, increase the temp setting, and change the mode. Thats the other great thing it has a mode that just blows air like a fan, a low heat setting and a high heat setting. It also has an eco setting, but Im not quite sure what that does. The ONLY drawback Id say for this, is that you cant sent the timer from the remote. You have to set the timer on the unit itself. The timer is great too, you can set it for 30 minute increments, up to several hours. Ive never tested it, but it also has a tip feature that shuts the machine down if it falls over. Sorry to disagree with the other reviews, but this heater has been great for me!

I bought 2 of these. One quit working after 3 months. The other one is still going strong. So, overall, taking the average, I'd give 2.5 stars. The still working unit is great.

I don't want to get too philosophical here 'cause this is a after all a product review but this product is yet again another example of cheaply made Chinese garbage.

If Companies want to operate in the US they should at least offer products made in this country and as consumers we should all demand that they do. It's not just that the Chinese make products that die prematurely wasting everyone's time and money, we need to realize that it takes the Earth's FINITE resources to make them and dispose of them as well.

Anyway, performance-wise the Delonghi TCH7690 Safeheat 28" tower ceramic heater is the same as any other 1500 Watt heater. Despite the marketing hype you may read from heater manufacturers, 1500 watts of input yields something under 1500 watts of output. That's it, I don't care how you slice it. So if you're in the market for a space heater, I would look for the most attractive, least expensive unit, made in America if it exists. And if not made in America at least backed by a US company that you can actually contact and who will gladly repair or replace the unit when (not if) it fails. This will not be too long if it's made in China.

Pretty disappointed with this product. Worked fine for a three weeks and then one day it stopped blowing hot air. It would only turn on and then turn itself off. Too lazy to return it. Will be avoiding this company for now. What got me to buy this on was when it was mentioned as the top model to buy by Hammacher and Schlamer. I generally trust their taste (bought an amazing shower curtain from them) but I didn't know that not ordering from them would equate to getting a Lemon from Amazon.

Like other reviewers, I now have a 28-inch piece of junk. This unit for the past 4 days would not operate properly, and I was too busy with other tasks to return it to Amazon. Well it died today [no red light indicating power], and it's 1 day past the Return policy! So, straight to the Trash.

Stay away from this product.

Amazon needs to do a better job of (a) quality control of products they sell, and (b) relaxing their Return policy when devices they sell/ship fail outright.

A gorgeous piece of furniture that is also a functional heat source. You'll never mistake the flames for the real thing, but the pure efficiency and low maintenance more than makes up for it.

I was a bit hesitant when I ordered this since I could only rely on a photo and a very brief description of the item and its features. Since I have Amazon Prime this 100+ pound fireplace shipped FREE and it was delivered in less than one week from the time I ordered it which was a huge savings on shipping alone. Combined with the fact it was already deeply discounted, it proved to be a major savings in more than one way. It arrived in two separate boxes, was very nicely packed with everything undamaged. The instructions could have been a bit more detailed but overall the assembly was manageable even for one person (a woman) to accomplish with relative ease. All parts were present with extra dowels, screws, etc. nicely packaged and clearly marked. I had it fully assembled in about an hour and a half.

Once assembled and turned on, it provided an extremely realistic flame and glowing logs along with digital temperature and timer and several settings for flame height and log glowing intensity as well as several timer options. Best of all, there is a remote control that allows you to change settings without having to get up. Also an extremely quiet blower that delivers toasty warmth to the room. It delivers warmth in relatively quick time and can be used without heat to add the ambiance of a flickering fire, and the heat can be used without the flame too.

This item exceeded my expectations in every way. The wood is a rich and dark brown with a nice patina, the slate is realistic in appearance, the antique bronze tiles add a nice touch and the overall look is imbued with understated elegance that compliments my traditional styled living room. I added an antique clock to the mantel and it is simply stunning! I now want to spend my time in a living room that once was hardly ever used.

To sum it up, it delivers a lot of features and quality for the price and the free shipping made the deal even sweeter! Thanks Amazon!
