ecobee3 lite Smart Thermostat

The ecobee3 light is another learning thermostat that is ideal for smaller houses as a standalone unit. It includes remote sensors that detect occupancy as well as temperature, allowing it to switch off heating or cooling in vacant rooms. It, like the Nest E, may function with air conditioning to reduce interior humidity in the absence of a dehumidifier, and monthly reports compare energy use to neighbors. Whereas the Nest E is compatible with Amazon, Google, and Samsung smart home systems, the ecobee3 lite also works with Apple's HomeKit.

The ecobee3 lite, like the $160 Emerson Sensi Wi-Fi Programmable Thermostat, is just semi-smart; it lacks a remote sensor and other advanced functions. Instead, it fills the gap between $100 app-enabled thermostats with no smart home integrations and $250 high-end ones with smart home integrations and technology that learns your habit and adjusts the temperature automatically.
