The area that we live in has a lot of power outages. Each time we lose power we have to reset the thermostat. Will this thermostat keep it'e memory

It will keep its settings in memory. We have a lot of power surges as well and have never had an issue to where we've had to reset it each time.

Yes, so long as the power stays on it retains its clock and timer settings. The batteries are only to preserve settings in case of a power outage.

Ryan, our power goes out a lot where we live, and the Cool Bot come back on line without having to be reset. its been working like a champ for two years.

Yes it does "remember" most settings. After a power failure, all settings remain except the date and time.

I leave mine on whether I'm home or not. It has a thermostat and cuts on and off when needed.

My best guess? No! I was surprised when I replaced my non-WIFI version of this thermostat with the WIFI version. The three double or triple A alkaline batteries in the non-WIFI were replaced by a single, flat, sort of mercury-looking cell in the WIFI. So this single cell is not going to power anything very long - maybe just preserve settings in a power failure. A final comment is that Honeywell has a surprisingly good email technical assistance system. I would suggest asking the experts.

The thermostat will keep the temp. In a safe range. Leaving the unit running to long could cause over heating.

Yes, it will remember the last setting used, even if you do not save it. When you turn the unit back on it will be at the last setting used.

The one time that I have lost power since I got this I had to reset the thermostat.

Sorry but I cannot answer that as we haven't had any power outages since getting the heater. I would assume that it does since it is just plugged into a wall outlet.

Hello Kelly, From my experience it saves your settings. I think you can think of the memory in this more like a flash drive. when not powered it still keeps the info. it does not have a battery inside, but i dont think it needs one. it is also part of your alarm system and would be using the juice from its battery in case of a power outage. hope this helps

From what I see online, I would say no. Thermostat must be Red Link Network enabled.

No battery backup in mine. However if the power goes out, your furnace won't run it's fan anyway. When the power comes back on, the thermostat will resume as left off. We have ours in a vacation home and the power goes off intermittently throughout the winter. The thermostat is always reset and functioning when I check back in. I really enjoy this thermostat for checking in on the house and the external temperatures remotely, and for turning on the heat before we arrive in the winter.

The thermostat retains the last settings if that is your question. If power is out, your HVAC is out of commission anyway :-)

Absolutely! It is constantly kept charged by your system and then provides back-up power when there is an electrical failure (by the electric company).

Absolutely. We put this in our cabin as back heat in the event we are not there when a power outage occurs. We have one in our home - it does a wonderful job - be sure to run ceiling fans if you are planning to use it on a regular basis as they can cause house to sweat.

Yes; it also has a memory set button so that you can set you own temperature and it will remember it for next time.
