As fellow Canadians, is anyone using the “Better (different) Thermostat Device” with the degrees in Celsius instead of Fahrenheit?

Better (different) Thermostat Device

I (like many) was always having a tough time setting the heating and cooling set points on my thermostats via the sliders. Trying to get exactly 70’ degrees was like threading a needle with mittens on. So now I have created a variation of the zwave-thermostat device type which does away with the sliders and replaces them with incremental up/down buttons on each side of the setpoint temps. They increment by 1 degree each time you tap the button/tile. Way easier to use for someone with meat-hooks like mine. Here’s a link to the device file. Read the instructions in the device file header to see how to install. Enjoy and Happy Hacking Twack Here are some screen shots [thermo1] [thermo2]
