Sarah,
So far I have never felt the need to use those. I find that most thermostats
can be tactually marked with fabric paint. If it is one of the standard round
ones, I put a mark on the middle part where the pointer is and a mark right at
70 on the outer ring (or the client's choice of temperature). These two marks
can be lined up visually or tactually. They then use this marker as a point to
judge with. If it is too warm, they can move the marker a distance below that
point -- if too hot a distance above that point. I find that most people are
satisfied with this system, as opposed to being able to set the degrees to an
exact number.
Here are two examples of talking thermostats:
The Kelvin

is $129.00
and so is the VIP

A bottle of fabric paint costs just a few bucks and you could mark 100
thermostats with it. Why waist the rehab money?

I just looked into talking thermostats for a friend. I found several that are
in the same price range. I have not had experience with any of them. Does
anyone recommend one over another? Or have you tried one that you weren't
satisfied with?
Thanks in advance,
Sarah Heinrich
