okay so thing tech for your home here to
explain how these gadgets can help you
save you time and energy
well John win with try Eagle energy and
high-tech Texan Michael Garfield they're
in the house guys welcome to the show
John let's start with you because try
Eagle you guys have been on the show
before you guys are an energy company
you reach about a hundred thousand
Texans hundred thousand Texans you know
we're we start in 2003 in the woodlands
we are an energy provider that we
focused on having smart and honest
electricity plans so its offense has to
take care of these customers here you
know I've been in Texas all my life and
it's just fantastic we've all these
gadgets we have coming out here this
season and I think what's cool about you
guys have been in business for so long
but you are embracing these changes in
technology and finding ways to use them
absolutely one of the great tools that
we have is a weekly users report the
toast customer exactly how much they use
in detail to give them an idea and how
to control their usage their costs and
basically a detailed report on how much
the ability at the end of each month and
I think to though for somebody who
doesn't have the smart technology in
their home yet it can be a little
daunting saying oh I don't want to
switch over
I don't know and but you guys really
take care of that for your customers oh
absolutely the devices that we have yes
you take a photo of the wiring and what
the app will show you exactly in detail
and how to wire up yourself so it's
actually I call it john proof because i
can do it myself
is it Michael Garfield proof though I
mean is it really this easy Michael for
consumers to maybe get a device and
install it themselves it is that simple
listen I come on here semi regularly and
I show off really some of these cool
products and truth be told at Reigle
energy is a longtime partner sponsor of
my radio show and so I know all about
them how easy it is I love the weekly
energy report that he was talking about
but what they do is they work in partner
with companies and specifically in this
case let's look at this Honeywell
thermostat by its it's by a company of
the manufacturers Carla's IDEO which
they're changing their name to next year
but it's a very smart and easy to
install product and as John said they
can take a picture of your wiring and
then you can do it yourself but the
freedom to allow you to have that app
and change the temperatures when you're
away and I travel a lot and so before I
get on up
I'll raise or lower my thermostat it's
simple to do and I talk a lot about
smart coming products first thing that
you should get easily gonna get the
smart thermostat because it saves you a
lot of money the other thing I think too
is you know once you do this and kind of
switch over but how do we get it all
talking to each other I think that's the
other thing because I've got an Alexa
you're big into this and it blows my
mind sort of well what you see here we
brought a few different devices this is
an home pod and this is the new one from
from Apple okay I've got a little tiny
Google Mini which is right here - these
are all voice-activated we use alexa we
use Siri and you know we use everything
with our voice right now the neat thing
is these Honeywell products in this
example they all work and it was smart
from Honeywell certainly from try Eagle
to work with them all you need to do is
you can say once you're in your home you
know thermostat raise it to 78 degrees
turn down the thermostat on the first
level and think about this if you've got
two floors sometimes three floors right
now instead of schlepping up and down
you could be sitting on your couch
changing it from your your entire
smartphone or use your voice third floor
turn it down it's very easy to turn the
channel
we were the remote control but the and
don't forget these these voice control
devices they work with not just the
thermostats you can go to security
cameras and you can go to lighting and
anything that with triagle does they're
always on the lookout of partnering with
these companies I go to the Consumer
Electronics Show with with John and
actually his boss and they're always
looking for companies to bring this down
to your home and make one single system
how to work ok so just to clarify then
John so if someone's gonna sign up with
triangle for an energy plan you guys
actually have these smart devices cuz
it's super cool but again I think for
some people it's a bit overwhelming you
guys can actually say hey here's your
energy plan and we're giving you this
the smart plans include with 12 24 and
36 months included with the plants you
know what to pay their additional 150 or
300 dollars for device that's included
plan and no additional charge and I will
say to having these can probably help
you run your home more efficient right
oh absolutely the nice thing is just a
few days ago we're nice you know ad
weather the next night again was 40
degrees so actually turns on heat and
cool automatically for you okay
