- chopsueyar 14y agoThe first gen device was on "clearance" at Lowes for $149, IIRC (now it is $229). The new version retails for $249. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009GDHYPQ/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B009GDHYPQ&linkCode=as2&tag=littdidd-20 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009GDHYPQ/ref=as_li_qf_sp_... I assume this is really a US oriented device, considering our fascination with ducted installs and a central HVAC system. I added a multi-zone minisplit system in my last home, and can maintain specific temperatures of individual rooms,so I could not use such a device (The Nest). Could be much more useful with remote temperature sensors in each room and electronic duct dampers. Kickstarter project?
