What (fake) temperature would you put on a thermostat you were selling?

I picked 70. I don't really have a reason why. I guess because it's a nice, round, even number.

What made you think of this question?

72 degrees F is what came to mind first.

Seventy two.

72deg. F and it would sell just like that

280 Kelvin.

Might eliminate a number of potential buyers, but hey - Kelvin was the one who was smart enough to make a ratio scale.

22 degrees C

somewhere between 70 - 80, unless it is for industrial refrigerators (why am I thinking about that SNL skit all the sudden), then I would set it much lower. It would depend on my target audience, duh!. Also, why bother with faking it, the stores usually have their electronics on anyway, which tend to be airconditioned.

I usually set my thermostats between 60 and 65 but I'd probably go as high as 68 for the picture on the packaging.

70 deg.

72°

Tepid.

20°C: It's the closest to room temperature.

I would use two different ones for the most part. It would depend on the time of the year and where I was sending them to. 72° where and when it is warm, and 78° where and when it is colder.

I bought a thermostat recently to replace an old one we had in the basement... kind of a stupid question, I know... sometimes, I like to ask really specific things, I'm not sure why.

hm... interesting... central air conditioning is fairly rare where I live, I didn't even consider that people would answer in terms of cooling not heating... oops... still, it doesnt' seem to have caused much of a problem. Though, 72 seems a bit warm to me.

2795ºF - The melting point of iron.

68°F

Good question.

It would depend where I was selling it. If in the US (or other country that typically uses the Fahrenheit scale), I would probably use 68. For countries using the Celsius scale, I would use 20 degrees C.

Totally random.

Nah. I didn't think it was a stupid question. It just got me wondering what goes on in your head to come up with stuff like this. I guess because I don't notice things like this.

70°F

A very peculiar question. Shouldn't a comfortable temp be 68?

68 is cold!

> 68 is cold!

And 69 is HOT!

It is suppose to be the ideal temperature as far as heating goes.

I do not understand. It is only one degree off...........?

72 is ideal for me.

Hot like the sex act 69.

Well, you are HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, I guess I am. No, actually I'm cold! That's why it's up that high!

70

98.6 F

I mean, after all, it's just a demo to get sales!

69
sex sells

20 degrees C.
