This move has saved me at least $300 so far considering the efficentes of the theromsat and the discount to my bill.

Get BGE Bill Credits and a New Honeywell Programmable Thermostat from PeakRewards℠

So while everyone else is cranking up there system your sitting back in the heat sweeting because you cannot control the temp in your home. Do they have a F%#$ this button you can opt out at any given time.

My a/c still runs, it just cycles off for periods of time during the peak time. They only do weekdays, not holidays, from 1 to 7. Again they have only done it once to my house otherwise it has run as normal. It is not for everyone if you are set it at 65 type of person and will die if it ever gets hotter then it is not for you.

My house at 78- 80 for a couple hours doesn't bother me. normally I have it at 75 anyway.

Sorry to answer your question you can opt out twice a summer.

I think and I maybe guessing but since I live in the burbs they rarely go to it but B-more city itself they use it more often; more people bigger impact.

yeah i think in the city, from what ive been told on 2 occassions, your themostat is set for the entire summer months, not cycled like yours is. i was also told you get $100 the 1st summer, 50 the next, 25 the third . . . not the 300 plus you have saved. sounds like balt city folk are getting screwed as usual from BGE.

Here is the breakdown for everyone.



So I did 75% I have saved in 2 years $225 in discounts but I have saved even more by having an advanced thermostat, it is like a mini-computer on your wall. Since I put it in if I compare any month that I didn't have it to a month that I did have it (winter or summer) I have saved on an average of 15% off my bill.

TH8321U1006 - Honeywell TH8321U1006 - $139.95 - VisionPro Thermostat (3H/2C) - PexSupply.com

I guess you can add the $140 to my savings as well since this came free.

I can adjusted it over the internet if I want to.


Really the program is a no brainier.
