I’m your host, Jim Collison broadcasting live from the TV studios here in a beautiful Bellevue Nebraska. I have both Edward and Mike Edward is sitting outside. Edwards gotta be great. Pretty great night right?<br> Edward Weniger  [0:42] <br> outside. Yeah.<br> Jim Collison  [0:44] <br> Yeah. Mike, have you gotten a chance? I know, you’ve been super busy. But I mean, the last we had the heat way, right? I think all of them are the United States had this monster heat wave. Then all of a sudden, it’s like forgiveness. It’s like sorry, right?<br> Mike Wieger  [0:56] <br> It was it was like a 20 degree difference to because we were in you know, right on 100. And then I think yesterday we are in the like, right at at most of the day, it was one of the first mornings that I woke up and my my AC hadn’t even kicked on because my temperature in the house stayed below my setting, which is always a always a blessing. When that you you just see dollar signs may be coming back into your wallet, not AC just sucking it all out. Because during that heat wave that AC just ran constantly.<br> Jim Collison  [1:22] <br> Yeah, it was on a lot. I’m sure nest thermostats were all trying to figure out like, well, and<br> Mike Wieger  [1:28] <br> that was a big savings for me was I had the ecobee out of town a lot during it and just being able to control and set and see what it was doing was actually a real benefit. And that’s where the Eco be having those sensors and all the different rooms and doing the smarter way it was. I’m sure I did save a lot, it would be really fun to see the savings calculator if there was a way to do that.
