Ron, when you installed the talking thermostat, could you just
replace the non-talking one with the talking one, using the same
box mounted on the wall, or do you need to use a different
receptacle for the talking one? 73, Jim WA6EKS

FYI,
Harry Cohen, with TalkingThermostats.com, will stand behind his
products
100%. He is very accessible and responsive if you ever have any
questions
or need anything regarding his products.
I gain absolutely nothing from recommending him. I just have had
considerable experience working with him and know how he has gone
out of
his way to assist me when I was installing his talking
thermostats.

Hi and thanks Curtis. I haven't heard of the Kelvin one and was
planning on getting one of the VIP models but thanks for the
heads-up on this. Jim WA6EKS.

they should service those, the PIP1000 we have one and it works
fine.
the one to stay the "bleep" away from is the Kelvin talking
thermostat, because they lock up your air conditioner, among
other
problems. it is a great unit except it cannot be depended on to
operate your compressor correctly and it has other programming
issues.
I know, I was the one who did the instructions and original
documentation for the unit, buying mine in 2006 when it was brand
new
and the rage. The NFB supported them originally, but retreated
in a
big hurry when problems which were not correctly diagnosed in the
beginning and patched incorrectly during the life of the unit
didn't
actually solve the issues.
They will work fine for your heat, but don't rely on the Kelvin
to
correctly and consistently run your air conditioner.

Yah, this is off topic but still blindness related. I am looking
for a talking thermostat for a home heating and air conditioning
unit. specifically, I'm wondering if anyone on this list has a
model VIP 1007 and if so, where you got it? Thanks, Jim WA6EKS
