Re: [BlindHandyMan] Heating thermostats?

Your new thermostat will work ok with only two wires if you use only the R and 
W terminals providing:
 1.  it is not and electronic thermostat with a display.
 2.  it is not a set-back set-up temperature according to time and has a 
clock in it.

 As with all thermostats that are not electronic, it will have to be 
calibrated to be used with the equipment, or the equipment recommended settings 
for the thermostat operation.
 If the electrician can't hook it up, you might need a new 
electricianbob

I think I bought a cheap one from Independent Living Aids that's easy-to-use.  
It is tactile, and it clicks every two degrees ;f.  I think it was under $15.00 
US.

.Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Heating thermostats?
.
.Hi, I went to home depot and purchased 2 honeywell EASY TO READ raised 
number-click style thermostats.  My electrician said that this wasn't going to 
work properly because what I need is just a 2 wire/heating oil forced hot water 
version.  The one I got was a five wire for heat colling and hot water ect 
version.  I called Honeywell to see if Ican get the one I need and not getting 
anywhere.  Can someone tell me where I can get something that a blind person 
can use like this?  I know there is the talking thermostat but, all I need is 
the basic put-it-on 68 degrees type.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.
.p.s. My electrician is also trying some supply houses.  If I can get a model 
number or something, It may be easier.  Andy.
