We simply skip the OB??? What the hell is the OB??? This video is about as clear as mud
NOT so helpful! Didn't show the full wiring process 😒
RYOBI does not honor their warranty. Do not buy RYOBI if you are in HAWAII. You will be forced to ship to the mainland for service. I was quoted almost $200 shipping cost from UPS & USPS for my weed wacker that is still under warranty for the SLOWEST possible shipping. This means you are without the tool for weeks/months in addition to the cost, assuming they will even honor your claim.
At about , look past her right shoulder, and you can see she's working on a "prop wall."🤔
Preexisting holes match up, perfectly.👌🏽
Preexisting wires are long enough to connect to the new panel.👍🏽
No OB explanation.🤷🏽♀️
Piece of cake! 🎂✌🏾
Missed the part about not all smart thermostats or HVACs are the same and to take a photo of the wires before undoing the wires.
Nothing is smart…about a smart thermostat….
Takes less energy to keep thermal mass at 1 temp…
She should have completed her comment about the "OB" wire by explaining what it's for, and when or why someone would or wouldn't have one, so they know what to expect.
Save your sanity and take a picture of how the wires were connected on your original thermostat before disconnecting anything.
I was disappointed that she didn't say "Make sure you wear your Ryobi safety glasses while using your precision Ryobi screw driver to install your Ryobi smart thermostat" lol
Such an easy project that anyone can do!!
What do you do if you don't have the "c" wire? Thank you.
