wanna see my snake?
Any use one? Any thoughts on what works best, and with what? I have an old fashioned dial stat that seems particularly inaccurate, and figured if replacing I may as well go the whole way. I can see that the main contenders are Hive and Nest, but most articles I've read seem a little biased towards one or the other without really explaining why. If anyone has experience of using said devices I'd be interested in hearing about it.
My house comprises of three adults, 2 of whom are out during the day Mon-Fri but have roughly 2 hour differences in schedules. The third is generally about most days other than Saturday and one weekday.
The main things I want from it are:
Also how easy are they to fit? Can I just connect the wires from my old crappy stat? I don't need the hot water part particularly as I leave my water always on but not pre-heated.
I've also ordered one of those Amazon speakers to yell at when drunk, so if it works with that its a bonus.

The main things I want from it are:
- Accurate heat measurement
- Possibility of saving money
- A log of when it has been on/off (cumulative stats would be interesting)
- A log of the house temperature would also be nice
