  • Great basic 7 day programmable thermostat!
Style: 7-Day Programmable 2-heat, 1-cool, Touch...
I had a previous Lux digital thermostat I replaced with this model just due to the age of the previous unit. My old thermostat was still functioning fine, but I do not necessarily trust modern digital electronics past ten years of age. This thermostat was cheap, and I would rather pay a little money for a new thermostat than experience a thermostat failure during winter. Anyway, my thermostat was super easy to install. All of the thermostat wires were color coded, and I connected each wire to the corresponding terminal on the new thermostat's mounting plate. Since my previous thermostat was a Lux, I was able to use the existing mounting holes for my base plate as those lined up with the new plate and simply attach the wires to matching terminals. That made my install even easier. I just started using this thermostat a couple weeks ago. It is keeping my house a consistent temperature when compared to another thermometer and my previous thermostat (also cycles at appropriate swing settings). The thermostat is working exactly how it should. I opted for Lux thermostats for a few reasons. I do not have a C wire and need a thermostat that can run on batteries alone. The unit is cheaper than comparable models. The thermostat has a lot of nice features for the price (energy use, filter change, lock out code, temperature set back-which is a temporary hold before automatically resuming program). However, I really like the fact I can adjust the swing temperature on this unit. For those who do not know what swing temperature is, it is the amount of temperature variance the thermostat will allow from the set temperature before turning the HVAC system on and off. A properly adjusted swing temperature allows the HVAC system to run more efficiently (longer run times which are also easier on HVAC system) balanced with occupancy comfort (HVAC cycles more often). I previously had a Honeywell thermostat that short cycled my HVAC system, and I will never use that brand again for that reason. I am running this thermostat on AA batteries as I do not have a C wire. I ran my other thermostat that way for years, and I would just change the batteries right before heating season. I never had to replace them more than once a year and never saw a low battery indicator on my previous thermostat. I do wish it was easier to change the batteries out on this model. I did end up doing what another reviewer mentioned. I opened my thermostat to expose the battery compartment several times before installing it. It did make it a little easier to take apart after it was mounted. There are a couple negatives. Some people mentioned the thermostat is inaccurate when powered by a C wire. I cannot comment on that as mine is soley run on AA batteries. The recovery feature was designed for a stupid California law. The hour maximum recovery time does not allow enough time for my hydronic heat system to adjust reach my set temperature during a Wisconsin winter. I program around that by setting my system to start earlier (again thanks to a dumb law). I will say that the display is kind of hard to read without the backlight. I also wish the unit displayed the current room temperature to tenths of a degree. The thermostat also seems a little slow to read temperature. It is just an observation when I first put batteries in it that it took a minute or two to read the exact room temperature despite being out of its case in my house before I installed batteries. I will add that my heating and cooling system slowly brings my house to the correct temperature, and that has not been an issue with its operation. I will update this review if anything changes. Edit: The temperature has been in the upper teens to lower twenties the past week. I have been playing with the swing setting on my thermostat as I recently installed new triple pane windows. My previous swing setting of +/- 1 was not working for me after my house upgrade. I lowered my swing to .75. I noticed my energy use dropped 45 minutes from previous day which had even warmer temperatures. I am now starting to experiment with other settings to see if they yield greater efficiency gains. I am also toiling with skipping my 6 degree thermostat reduction at night. By reducing the swing setting, I have learned that it takes my boiler more energy to recoupe losses than to maintain the current temperature (recovery time is around three hours of constant boiler operation). I am currently making a chart based off of run time settings based from the run time settings on this thermostat achieve the optimum efficiency. The energy use feature is also something that is great to have. I suggest people actually adjust their thermostats and check the results. ... show more

  • Great replacement for an old digital thermostat
Style: 7-Day Programmable 2-heat, 1-cool, Touch...
This is truly a great thermostat and a massive upgrade from our old H*well thermostat. Why would I say massive? The swing value on the old thermostat was not adjustable. The swing was probably 1/4 degree - which meant that the A/C would start, run for 10-12 minutes, then shutdown. Then, it would start 8-10 minutes later and repeat the process. This constant cycling was both wearing out the A/C and the wasting lots of energy because the A/C was never able to get up to maximum efficiency (value varies but most sites say they need to run at least 12-15 minutes before they begin to cool efficiently). Anyways, to the point. The swing on this thermostat is adjustable, in 1/4 degree increments, up to two degrees. It's currently set at 1.25 degrees and this allows the A/C to sit idle for 30-40 minutes, then it runs typically for 20 to 30 minutes. Up front, the downside to this means that there is a 2.5-degree temperature spread throughout the hottest part of the day. If it is set to 74, then it won't start the A/C until the temp hits 75.25, and won't shut down until the temp hits 72.75. Given the cost of a replacement A/C unit, we think this is an acceptable trade-off. It was fairly easy to install - with the important caveat that the directions are (still) wrong about setting the Gas/Electric slide switch (on the inside of the unit with the cover removed). Fortunately, the diagram on the inside of the unit itself is correct. This shortfall has been pointed out before and still not fixed in the install directions which I downloaded from their website. You do have to download the directions - only minimal documentation is included with the unit itself. I really like the touchscreen controls and the blue backlighting. I also like that you can program up to four periods during the day - although we chose to keep it in the manual mode. Another very handy feature is to be finally able to see how long the A/C has operated each day, and for the previous day. Not a big deal but it's useful info if you're trying to keep your electric bill under control. There is one problem with ours - the temperature is two degrees off (lower) from both a nearby digital thermometer and our Piper. There is an adjustment on the Lux thermo to compensate for this, which I have adjusted, but the adjustments I made have not made a difference. This isn't a show-stopper because we set the temp based on comfort level versus the temp shown on the thermostat. Last comment doesn't really concern the Lux unit itself - just a warning. Please be absolutely certain that you have turned off the power to your AC/furnace before even touching your old thermostat and starting the replacement. I've seen several horror stories about people frying the logic board on their AC ($700 to replace on ours) by attempting to wire in a new thermo without turning off the power. Update August 7th 2022: still the best thermostat out there, despite not having Wi-Fi. The truly adjustable swing value is the real deal maker with this Lux. I have lost track of how many years we have been using it but at least two or probably three years. Just the best there is!! ... show more

  • An accurate, easy to use thermostat, until it fails
Style: 7-Day Programmable 2-heat, 1-cool, Touch...
We moved into a house with zoned forced hot water heat. I'm familiar with hot air systems, but this was all new to me. In our previous home we had a Lux for the hot air system and it has been reliable and accurate, so I went with Lux again for the new setup. The newer Lux model is even easier to program than my previous one and the copy feature makes it a breeze to fill in days of the week without getting blisters pressing buttons. I've read comments about programming being erased when you change batteries, but twice I had to remove batteries briefly and other than displaying a low battery warning and having to reset the clock, all programming was retained. Perhaps those who had trouble let their batteries get very low before replacing? My only complaint is that one of the two thermostats I ordered failed within three days -- the backlight stopped working. But Amazon shipped a new one right away and paid for return shipping. To respond to another comment, yes the unit "whines" a little when the backlight is on, but it only lasts a fraction of a minute, so not an issue in my opinion. Temperature accuracy is good and it is not difficult to set "swing" so that the room stays at a fairly even temp. Installation is easy for most systems and the instructions are better than average for being understandable. I like that this model displays the set temperature all the time -- no need to press anything to check on the setting. A good value for the price. EDIT: the backlight on the replacement thermostat has now gone dark as well. Not impressed by Lux quality control. I still very much like everything else about this unit, but it is difficult to use without the backlight. This leaves me in a Catch-22. Lux warranties the unit for 3 years, but you have to return it to where you bought it. Amazon will not exchange it after 30 days and they are out of stock anyway. So unless I want to go without a thermostat while i wait for either a refund or repair or replacement, seems I'm out of luck. But once again, Amazon comes through with excellent customer service. They are providing a new TX500U thermostat -- nearly equivalent -- and we will stay warm. It's this kind of service that keeps me coming back to Amazon. ... show more

  • Works great with my electric heat pump and auxiliary backup. Simple to use interface.
Style: 7-Day Programmable 2-heat, 1-cool, Touch...
I replaced a Honeywell TH3210D1004 Non-Programmable Digital Thermostat Honeywell TH3210D1004 Non-Programmable Digital Thermostat with this. I got tired of knowing that even when I was not home, my system was spending a lot of time maintaining a comfortable temperature for no one to enjoy. I'm also not rich enough to afford a fancy wifi/smart thermostat (NEST, Ecobee, etc) so after a little research I landed on this. This thermostat offers 7-days worth of programming so that I can program every day of the week as needed with 2 or 4 time zones which was important to me as the weekdays all get the same program, while Saturday and Sunday each get different programs. Now for the gritty. I've got an electric heat pump with auxiliary back up. I followed the diagram for wiring and everything went seamlessly. One caveat is that you absolutely must run the jumper from Y to W1 or your compressor will not kick over. It's in the wiring diagram as "User installed jumper". For whatever reason I interpreted that as being optional. It's not. Common sense should've told me that since the C wire is optional and is actually labeled as optional with a dashed line. Once I figured that out, everything worked perfectly. Setting up the thermostat after getting everything working was a breeze. The included manual is very basic and leaves a lot of detail out. I suggest going to the Lux website and downloading the full manual which is far more detailed and makes setting things up even simpler. It walks you through how to copy a day's program to other days of the week so that you do not have to manually input all seven days, which is nice and highly convenient. The menu offers a lot of options which the detailed manual describes in detail such as how long the unit has run during the day, how many hours your filter has been used (this can be disabled), temperature swing adjustment, temperature difference when the auxiliary kicks in, and a couple more. The actual controller is quite simple and straightforward and fairly ergonomic. I was able to set up the controller without the detailed instructions for basic use; 7 days of programming and their respective hourly set points. I then delved into the detailed manual to fine tune the system to my desired settings. I adjusted the swing by a little as well moving the auxiliary setpoint from 2 to 3 degrees difference. My wife also found it to be pretty simple and straightforward and is grateful for the "hold" feature which overrides the daily program and essentially makes a manual thermostat in case our daily routine changes for company or whatever the case may be. So far my only "complaint" would be that it makes a high pitched buzzing noise when I press the screen and the backlight activates. It's low volume and people with less sensitive ears may not even notice. The sound goes away as soon as the backlight turns off. It's not a big enough complaint for me to dock stars because it's not constant and is only present when I am messing with the system which is rare now that it is programmed. ... show more

  • Good, easy to install/use thermostat
Style: 7-Day Programmable 2-heat, 1-cool, Touch...
Easy install while replacing a 12-15 year programmable thermostat whose buttons had gotten quirky and difficult to use. The Lux is a definite upgrade in ease of use and appearance. In this setting the install was quick and easy and only required a couple small screwdrivers. The large screen is easy to read. When you touch the screen it brightens for 10 sec as you make new settings and then dims to save battery power. Based on comparisons with another thermometer, the temperature reading seems accurate. Menu settings are intuitive, especially if you have some experience with programmable thermostats. You can program 4 time periods for each day and customize them for every day of the week, but many homeowners probably don't need that flexibility - the copy feature allows you to quickly copy one day's settings to other days. Once programmed is easy to make temporary temperature adjustments for a time segment of the daily program - something we frequently use since our highly variable schedule can never perfectly match any program. It is also quick and easy to put a "hold" on the temperature when you leave for a few days or a vacation. In short, the Lux does what a programmable thermostat is supposed to do. A few things to note: the LUX comes with a "quick start" installation guide; a full owner's manual is available online and you may need to download it if you you want to make advanced settings. While the screen is much larger, the footprint of the Lux was smaller than the thermostat I replaced (which had replaced an earlier mechanical thermostat) so it didn't cover all the holes in the wall - the universal wallplate does the job but is pricy for a piece of plastic (but less hassle than patching holes and matching paint) and seems to be a tad different shade. And I just noticed, in the 10 days since I purchased it, the price jumped by $13! ... show more

  • A great "dollar value" thermostat
Style: 7-Day Programmable 2-heat, 1-cool, Touch...
Replaced two 20 year old Hunter thermostats (only battery backup) with two Lux TX9600TS thermostats. Easy old thermostat removal and new thermostat replacement making use of the "C" wire in my wiring set up. I am now using both battery backup and the "C" wire. I tried the new "stats" both with and without the "C" wire for a few days each way. Have not noticed any fluctuation in temperature using the "C" wire as was reported in a couple earlier review. Also monitored each new "stat" temperature with an atomic thermometer to check for variance. Both measured the same temperature for two days so no variance adjustment to be concerned about. No problem opening the new LUXs. Pressed thumb against the middle top protrusion and pulled back on the two side top protrusions and both snapped open very easily. No problem with closure either. Easy to program, with excellent instructions, although a complete set has to be downloaded from their site, and the thermostat light is just enough for me. Early concerns about the "swing" setting. My old Hunters were automatically set with a 1 degree swing so I set the two Luxs the same. With temperature setting of 71 would not turn on until 69 degrees room temperature. I emailed (closed on weekends) and phoned Lux tech support who were both very timely and helpful. Explanation was this thermostat works in .25 degrees thus swing setting opportunities from .25 to 2.25. With my 1 degree swing setting it would not turn on as soon as 70 degree room temperature appeared like I was thinking ( and my old Hunters did) because room temperature would have to go through 70.75, 70.50, 70.25 down to reach the 1 degree separation. They suggested I try .50 swing setting or .75 setting and to see if that satisfied our need. I tried both and settled on .75 swing setting because the heater would cycle on less. Since then, everything has been great and I am very satisfied with the LUX TX9600TS. Had considered and researched smart thermostats however my wife and I are more comfortable with settings and using these. Probably not for everyone but a very happy customer here in Las Vegas. ... show more

  • COMPANY FORGOT INSTALLATION VIDEO
Style: 7-Day Programmable 2-heat, 1-cool, Touch...
I ordered TX9600TSa thermostat. I couldn’t install it even with tech support from 3 different tech agents. The unit was correctly wired with installation guidance by phone. The AC would only blow heat. The other issue was about the product design. The screen is semi-illuminated when touched. This is a problem because I couldn’t tell what I was touching with a dark screen and when I touched it I simultaneously activated a feature and scrambled to undo it. The screen is barely visible with low backlight and needlessly small fonts for settings. The printed manual page looks like a Russian newspaper. I looked everywhere for the installation video but I found nothing. I called Support to direct me to the installation video and learned that the company didn’t produce one. Big mistake. I was told by Support that there are third party videos on YouTube but…I wondered why I had to find a third party to explain THEIR PRODUCT! Second marketing mistake. I attempted to open the thermostat at the top which has logical ridges on front and back panels but it will not open unless I use a screwdriver and hammer to pry the device open. Third marketing / design mistake. What is so amazing is the the website actually states how easy it is to install but it doesn’t link to a demo which they could easily have produced with an iPhone in 15 mins. I think their marketing team is delusional. ... show more

  • Excellent Product!!!
Style: 7-Day Programmable 2-heat, 1-cool, Touch...
Received the Lux TX9600TSa which is their latest version as of this writing. Must say that this is one awesome thermostat, does all the routine programming things, then has a couple of nice extras like counting the hours for filter replacement, and making it possible to set how closely to setpoint it will control the temperature. I generally run my system fan all the time during the summer when the AC is on, and the counting of fan hours and not just system hours is nice. The ability to program one day then quickly copy that to the other days is nice, and then having weekends separately programmable is also very nice. The install was a piece of cake, all worked right the first time. It did take longer than 10 minutes, because of the reading I did first re how to do it - but I do think I could install it again in 10 minutes, easily. I had to call Tech Support and leave a message because I needed to know more about that wall plate - my original old Honeywell thermostat was actually mounted in a junction box and both were thus in "portrait" orientation, and of course I need "landscape" orientation for this Lux. So I called and left a message as instructed, last night about 9:30 PM, and got the call back from one of their tech reps this morning about 8:30 or so, to tell me what I needed . . . which was their wall plate WP567 which he said will cover the old junction box in its entirety - and having since seen the dimensions, it will do so very nicely. So a few minutes after that I ordered it, also from Amazon, although I think Amazon just hosts the storefront for Lux Products. It's $8.17 and ships via parcel post, pretty good deal. They shipped it within the hour. And the tech said I won't have to disconnect any wires to put it in place. By way of summary, very nice and for a fair price - I did a fair amount of research online and in stores like Lowes and Homeo Depot before selecting this one, and I am convinced it's probably the best out there, including several which are more expensive. Good product, good support, fair prices, what else could I want... and we just moved to a 55+ community, have always had a digital thermostat with similar capabilities, but never one that does all the things this one does. ... show more
