12V Remote Controlled Thermostat

whammon · 09-16-2006, 07:26 PM

I would like to locate a 12V remote controlled thermostat for my TT so when dry camping or hunting, I can turn on my furnace from the bed. My current one needs to be set and run manually. I know that sounds lazy but it sure helps to warm up the trailer before you get up. Any ideas would greatly be appreciated...

Thanks for the reply. I have seen that one, but I think it still has to operate on 110. I am looking for one that will work strictly on 12v when dry camping or hunting...

This thermostat is made by the same co(RVP) that makes coleman mach III rv air conditioners. While it is true that the AC requires 120V - this thermostat operates on 12V and will also control any single stage furnace. I have a MachIII AC and the older non digital, non remote thermostat in my Arctic Fox. It controls both the furnace (DC) and the AC (AC) all from one unit. This thermostat is simply a digital unit with a remote that doubles as a remote thermostat. There are also thermostats that have several remote sensors so you can have up to 4 zones to base the indoor temp on.
