I reduced the indoor temperature this year to see how it was, and kept ~18'C. I think I'll keep it anyway - less energy used, and it's totally doable. When I have someone over for dinner, I bring it back to 20-21'C.

- goodpoint 4y agoMaybe we mean something different with "jacket". Don't people wear sweaters and thermal underwear at home? And with those you would be conformable at 15 to 17.
- brabel 4y agoEnglish is not my first language. I suppose you would say "sweater" (but I said jacket because I prefer those garments with a zipper at the front: which I thought was always called "jacket" regardless of whether it's very light or thick).
- nkurz 4y agoYou're not wrong. What people think will depend on context, and probably on region. In US English, jacket is a wide ranging term that could easily include a zip up sweater. If you wanted to be extra clear, you could saw "sweater jacket" or "fleece jacket" (if it's not woven).
- teekert 4y agoIt is very difficult to compare self-reported temperatures! Really if you get into it, there are many crappy sensors, crappy thermostats, thermostats mounted near single pane glass, etc... I spend some time complaining about my Nest V3, many people did, but it's just too difficult to get a reliable measurement. Btw, in the end my conclusion was that the Nest was doing quite well. Just the Shelly and the Hue sensors were easily 1-2 degrees off. Btw, what's up with Nest? I want another V3 in my new house, but they are not available anymore??
