With all the problems I and others seem to be having with ZWave control of the CT30, I got to wondering if we could simply swap the ZWave USNAP module out for the WiFi version. Since it looks like the WiFi thermostat available at Home Depot (and on RadioThermostat.com) is just a CT30 with Wifi module, it seems to me it should be possible. Has anyone thought about this or tried it? I haven't called RadioThermostat yet but I didn't see on their site that you could buy the USNAP module alone.

I gotta tell you mark. I have the usnap and ct30 wifi and the wifi is far superior in my opinion. I was having problems early on with it not connecting but since there was a firmware upgrade on the device I haven't had any dropouts. I think mine has been running continously for at least the last couple of months. I even have my log being monitored for problems using Jon00's log monitor and haven't encountered many at all.Originally posted by mark_anderson_us View PostComment

Good to hear. did you buy a whole new unit or just the module? (Forget that: found online for $70 - 70% of cost of entire unit!)Originally posted by jayman13 View Post
Do you have a plug-in for it? If so, which one and how do you control schedules, via t-stat or HS (I want to do former)
Is the touch screen operable when using wifi, as it wasn't with z-wave?________________________

My BeakerStat plugin works with the CT-30 WiFi as well as 3M-50 (aka CT-50) and CT-80. I also swapped a Z-Wave module out for WiFi in a CT-30 and it does work. In the BeakerStat forum there is a howto that shows how to accomplish this and make it work with the plugin.HS Pro 3.0 | Linux Ubuntu 16.04 x64 virtualized under Proxmox (KVM)
