Nest家庭恒温器

    我们在聊起创新的时候，没有人会想到恒温器，然而这款光滑的插电式恒温器却极受欢迎。大多数人出门时会忘记调节温度，让房间始终保持恒温。而这款恒温器却能模拟用户的生活习惯，自我编程，还可以通过手机来控制。因此，如果在早上6点钟起床的时候，你需要家里达到某个特定的温度，Nest便会自动确定打开暖气或冷气的最佳时间。这家位于加州帕洛阿托的公司承诺，售价250美元的Nest设备可以将用户的供暖和制冷账单减少高达20%。瘾科技的史蒂文斯程：“它确实有些贵。但对于那些注重审美、而且不喜欢传统的可编程恒温器的人来说，它却是一笔很好的投资。”

    Few people think of thermostats when they think innovation, but this sleek plug-in thermostat is pretty snazzy. Because most people leave the house at one temperature and forget to change it, Nest will learn your schedule, program itself, and can be controlled from your phone. So if you need the house to be a certain temperature by 6 a.m. when you wake up, Nest will figure out the best time to get the heating or cooling to kick in. The Palo Alto, Calif.,-based Nest promises the $250 device can lower your heating and cooling bills by up to 20%. "It's expensive," says Stevens of Engadget. "But for those who care a lot about aesthetics and who don't want to deal with a traditional programmable thermostat, it can be a good investment."
