Phil Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 I'm actually getting a Canary system soon from a friend who works at the company. I'll let you know my thoughts once I have it in hand and have been using it for a little bit.
Phil Posted July 8, 2015 Posted July 8, 2015 Just got it. It's barely an hour old but I can tell already this thing is gonna be great. I got it in black, and have it on black shelves. You can't even notice it. Best feature is that it pairs up with your phone (as well as any other phones you register with it as users), so when you are within your home, or within vicinity (not sure the range), you can set it to disable so it doesn't notify you every time your wife's cat jumps on the couch... like mine is gonna do for the first few days.

I have the canine equivalent of a wildebeeste bouncing all around my home, but it sounds like it could do the job.
Dunny Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Did we have a thread on the NEST home comfort thing a ma bobber? Pete, didn't you get it? Did somebody get it? A few houses we're looking at have it, it's enticing. The thought of me being able to turn the heat down on my wife while I'm in some far off land gives me a boner.

Apparently the "learning" function is for crap and it's thermometer accuracy is +/- 2?. That's a huge swing. Just get a Honeywell WiFi thermostat.
Dunny Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Ah OK. I'll check that out, prolly cheaper too. Thanks.
Phil Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Early on, so many notifications for cats and wife. But it's definitely learning.
Dave Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Early on, so many notifications for cats and wife. But it's definitely learning. Does it have lasers? Because if it has lasers, no more cat problem.
Phil Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 It has night vision, and at night, the front lights up with a HAL 3000 red glow. Super freaky. http://blog.canary.is/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Canary_night_vision.jpg
